title: Catalytic effect of copper on the hexacyanoferrate(III)-cyanide redox reaction.
abstract: The oxidation of cyanide with hexacyanoferrate(III) is a thermodynamically possible but kinetically slow reaction, which is catalysed by copper(II). The catalysed reaction has a second-order dependence on hexacyanoferrate(III) concentration, and the pseudo second-order rate constant increases linearly with the copper concentration, at least in the range from 10(-7) to 10(-3)M.
