Chloramine-T (CAT), the sodium salt of N-chloro-p-toluenesulphonamide, is a low-cost mild oxidizing agent with a wide range of uses. Most importantly, it can be used in acidic, neutral, and basic conditions. As a result, it has been widely used in chemistry, particularly in organic synthesis and analytical chemistry. Chloramine-T acts as a source of halonium cation and nitrogen anion and thus acts as base and nucleophile. It reacts with a wide range of functional groups and carries different molecular transformations. This book focuses on the studies of kinetics of oxidation of some aliphatic ketone semicarbazones by chloramine –T and also has been investigated with a view to propose suitable mechanism, rate law and correlate the reactivity of various substrates with their structures.
