Description
Photochemical decomposition products in the UV-visible region and reaction products with hydrogen peroxide of aqueous permanganate solutions have been studied under neutral, basic, and acidic conditions. Although the product distributions of the reactions are different at different pH levels, the two types of reactions, i.e., the photochemical reactions and the reduction reaction by hydrogen peroxide, basically follow the same reaction path. This suggests that both types of reactions start with the same elementary step (probably a charge-transfer step) and then proceed to give different products according to the environmental condition of the solutions surrounding the permanganate ions.
