Kinetic studies of the Cu 2+ ‐ethylenediamine catalysed decomposition of H 2 O 2 show the initial rate v 0 of H 2 O 2 decomposition to be proportional to [H+] −1 , [H 2 O 2 ], and [Cu 2+ ‐en] 2 . Maximal velocity is found at a ratio of [Cu 2+ ] tot :[en] tot = 1:1,5. It is suggested that the active complex has a binuclear structure. This structure and probable mechanisms of the reaction are discussed. The kinetic measurements of the Cu 2+ ‐diethylenetriamine‐H 2 O 2 system are difficult to interprete because of degradation of the ligand by H 2 O 2 .
