Investigation of various organic substrates is one of the most active areas of current research. The work reported in the present paper consist of the study of reaction between N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) as the oxidizing reagent and some Physiologically active compounds such as glycols viz. Propene glycol, Pentene glycol and heptane glycol in presence a of novel catalyst iridium(III) chloride. These reaction have been studied from the kinetic consideration to ascertain the mechanistic pathways, product have been isolated and positively identified in each case and possible stepwise mechanism has been isolated and positively identified in each case and possible stepwise mechanism has been outlined as detailed in the last point. Role of the catalyst has also been studied in detail. The work thus introduces a novel catalyst which has yet remained somewhat unexplored in the realm of kinetic studies of various organic substrates by mild organic oxidizing agents.
