The kinetics and mechanism of the oxidations of alcohols with a ortho group by ditelluratocuprate( 111 ) and ditelluratoargentate( Ill ) in alkaline medium by spectrophotometric method were investigated . Furthermore, the two-electronic transfer and radical mechanisms of deprotonated complexes as the active species were propsed, which perfects the previous work. By oxidation of a series of alcohol, we found that the different ortho group oxidized would effect the ability of the formation of the adduct between the oxidant and the organic compound. Meanwhile, the rate constants of rate-determining step and activation parameters were obtained at different temperatures, which provided basis for the mechanism and the reaction route design of the organic synthesis.
