hydroperoxymethylbenzene

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 0.3 mmol of N-hydroxyphthalimide and 0.6 mmol of cumene hydroperoxide are added at a temperature of 125° C. to 30 mmol of toluene in a round-bottomed flask having an attached reflux condenser. The reaction mixture is stirred for 8 hours at said temperature under an oxygen atmosphere of 1 bar. Benzyl hydroperoxide is obtained at a selectivity of 51.7% at a toluene conversion rate of 8%. Other products are benzaldehyde (24.6%) and benzoic acid (23.6%). an attached reflux condenser

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 750 G of toluene are introduced into a 1.5 liter stainless steel autoclave which is shaken; the toluene is oxidised, at 180°C under a pressure of 20 bars, with air depleted of oxygen until it contains only 8%, with an hourly flow rate of 240 liters (measured under normal temperature and pressure). After 1 hour 30 minutes the reaction mixture is cooled. The hydroperoxide is then purified via its sodium salt. 11.4 G of benzyl hydroperoxide, containing 85% by weight of pure product, are thus obtained. is oxidised, at 180°C under a pressure of 20 bars, with air After 1 hour 30 minutes the reaction mixture is cooled The hydroperoxide is then purified via its sodium salt 11.4 G of benzyl hydroperoxide, containing 85% by weight of pure product are thus obtained
