Boron trioxide, with alcohols

Oxidation of C12-C14 n-paraffms using boron trioxide catalysts was extensively studied for the production of fatty alcohols.Typical reaction conditions are 120-130°C at atmospheric pressure. ter-Butyl hydroperoxide (0.5 %) was used to initiate the reaction. The yield of the alcohols was 76.2 wt% at 30.5% conversion. Fatty acids (8.9 wt%) were also obtained. Product alcohols were essentially secondary with the same number of carbons and the same structure per molecule as the parent paraffin hydrocarbon. This shows that no cracking has occurred under the conditions used. The oxidation reaction could be represented as ... [Pg.183]
