Abstract The kinetics of the oxidation of formate, oxalate, and malonate by| Ni III (L 1)| 2+(where HL 1= 15-amino-3-methyl-4, 7, 10, 13-tetraazapentadec-3-en-2-one oxime) were carried out over the regions pH 3.0–5.75, 2.80–5.50, and 2.50–7.58, respectively, at constant ionic strength and temperature 40 C. All the reactions are overall second-order with first-order on both the oxidant and reductant. A general rate law is given as-d/dt| Ni III (L 1) ...
