More Information
Summary:Prodn. of 4-22C aliphatic or aromatic mono- or di-carboxylic acids (I) comprises oxidn. of corresp. aldehyde (II) using an oxidising agent in formic, acetic or propionic acid (opt. contg. water) at 50-130 degrees C under 1-25 bar pressure. (II) contains 1 or 2 aldehyde gps., hemi-acetal gps. or complete acetal gps.. An aldehyde/acetal mixt. with 1-99% aldehyde content may also be used. Also claimed is the prodn. of (I) from a cpd. (III) with at least one olefinic double bond. The process comprises reacting a soln. of (III) with ozone; hydrating the peroxide soln. obtained, removing solvent and catalyst; and oxidising the aldehyde obtained as above.
