Abstract
Magnesium powder (Mg) promoted the carboxylation reaction of saturated hydrocarbons with carbon monoxide (CO) in the presence of potassium peroxodisulfate (K2S2O8) in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) to yield the corresponding carboxylic acids and alkyl trifluoroacetates. About 80% conversion of cyclohexane was achieved when 5 mmol of magnesium, 5 mmol of potassium peroxodisulfate, 3 mL of TFA, 1 mmol of cyclohexane, 50 atm of CO were used at 80 °C for 30 h.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
