New substrates in Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction employing mixed media

Several substrates have been employed in different oscillatory systems. A serious limitation is the low solubility in water. This has been overcome by employing aqueous-organic mixed media in the iodate-system as well as the uncatalyzed and catalyzed [Ce(III) or Ferroin] systems. The present paper deals with the study of fifteen new substrates in the bromate-Mn(II) oscillatory system employing aqueous-organic mixed media. © 1992 Akadémiai Kiadó.
