Benzaldehyde readily undergoes autoxidation to form benzoic acid on exposure to air at room temperature. Yet it can be formed in high yield from, for example, benzyl alcohol by oxidation using a ...

A study of the gaseous oxidation of n-propyl alcohol (1-propanol) at 264 ⚬C shows that, after an induction period during which higher aldehydes and hydrogen peroxide are apparently the only products ...

This article is a continuation of the revision notes on CBSE Class 12 Chemistry, Chapter - Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids. Most of the important concepts are covered in the Part I. In this ...

Oxidizing the end carbon atom of a terminal alkene to form an aldehyde, a process called anti-Markovnikov alkene oxidation, is difficult because the reaction is energetically unfavorable. The ...

Plant lignins and soil humic colloids were isolated using H₂SO₄, NaOH and 1,4-dioxane and their elemental composition, methoxyl contents and cation exchange capacities were determined. The isolated ...

Consumers' food health and safety may be affected by the presence of micro-organisms and toxic substances in foodstuffs. The cause of the presence of toxic substances in food is sometimes due to the ...

Associate Professor Muhammet Uyanik (L), Professor Kazuaki Ishihara (R), and graduate student Ryutaro Kondo have improved their iodine-based catalyst system to work efficiently at lower temperatures, ...
