The role of the Baeyer–Villiger reaction in the liquid-phase oxidation of organic compounds

Resumo

The data on the composition of ester products formed in the Baeyer–Villiger reaction in the liquid-phase oxidation of organic compounds with molecular oxygen, on production channel of peroxy acids, as well as on the influence of a carbonyl compound structure on its reactivity in reactions with peroxy acids have been classified and considered. The Baeyer–Villiger reaction was shown to be the main source of accessory primary alcohol esters and lactones in industrial processes of aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane and paraffin hydrocarbons.
