Abstract Twelve sodium salts of N-chloroarylsulphonamides were employed as oxidants for studying the kinetics of oxidation of two acidic amino acids (aspartic and glutamic acid) and their monoamides (aspargine and glutamine) in aqueous acidic medium under various conditions, to see how the oxidative strength of these reagents vary with substitution. The sodium salts of N-chloroarylsulphonamides employed are of the general formulae i-XC 6 ...
