Investigation of Influence of Microwave Energy on Cleavage of S-S and C-S Bonds by Azide Ions
by J. Kurzawa and S. Stachowiak
Technical university of Poznan, Institute of Chemistry, 3 Piotrowo Street, 60-965 Poznan
Key words: azide, bonds cleavage, microwave energy
The influence of microwave energy on the rate of cleavage of -C-S- and
-S-S- bonds by azide ions was investigated. It was found that microwaves
do not accelerate the split of -C-S- bond, whereas the cleavage of -S-S-
bond takes place faster but the reproducibility of this reaction is very
poor and microwave techique is not recommended for quantitative determination.
