description <p>The present work reports kinetic study of the reaction of benzofuroxan and its derivatives with 2-acetylthiophene. Hammett equation was used to determine the rate of the reaction and substituent effect. Specifically, chloro, nitro and methyl substituted benzofuroxans react with α-carbonyl compounds to form a fungicidal product quinoxalines-di-<em>N</em>-oxide (phenazine <em>N</em>5, <em>N</em>10-dioxides). The effect of the benzofuroxan substituents on the reactivity was performed and monitored by a UV/Visible spectrophotometer. The rate constants of the benzofuroxan, 5-chlorobenzofuroxan, 4-nitrobenzofuroxan, 5-methylbenzofuroxan and 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan reactions were found to be 3.32x10<sup>-3</sup>, 4.24x10<sup>-3</sup>, 3.48x10<sup>-3</sup>, 8.03x10<sup>-3</sup> and 9.41x10<sup>-3</sup> min<sup>-1</sup> respectively. Moreover, Log k/k<sub>0</sub> against the substituent constant σ gave a linear relationship, which indicates positive effect of electron withdrawing substituent on the reaction. Therefore, the substituents have substantial effect on the reaction of benzofuroxans with 2-acetylthiophene.</p><p> </p><p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.17807/orbital.v12i1.1436">http://dx.doi.org/10.17807/orbital.v12i1.1436</a></p><p> </p>
