Abstract
The oxidation of thiohydantoin and rhodanine by quinquivalent vanadium ion is first order with respect to both vanadium ion and the organic substrate. The rate of oxidation increases with increase in concentration of hydrogen ions. The energy, entropy and free energy of activation have been evaluated. Formation of an intermediate complex between the organic substrate and vanadium (V) is not indicated by kinetic evidence. Some possible steps in the reaction have been proposed.
