percitric acid | Bookmark | |||||
Would citric acid convert to percitric with peroxide, would this make a meaningful alternative to acetic or formic or would it be too unstable, would the formed glycol dehydrate meaningfully. Any ideas wacka wacka wacka |

I have never heard of percitric acid being used for anything, only perphtalic and perbenzoic acids besides the ordinary performic/peracetic straight-chain acids. Why do you ask? |

If you are really serious about investigating possible substituents for performic or peracetic acid, there are a couple of articles to read before you start wasting energy: - Organic Reactions Volume VII (1953). Daniel Swern, Chapter 7: Epoxidation and hydroxylation of ethylenic compounds with organic peracids, pp 379-433. - The Chemistry of Functional Groups, Peroxides (1983). Edited by Saul Patai. There is a good Chemical Reviews article on Rh's site as well. I don't think that citric acid would work well. I think there are quite somewhat intramolecular forces that stabilize the citric acid molecule. Ave Hive, synthetisandi te salutant! |
