Chemistry & industry
Pharmacology
MeSH Pharmacological Classification
Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed, p301, p499)
Electron-accepting molecules in chemical reactions in which electrons are transferred from one molecule to another (OXIDATION-REDUCTION).
Uses & manufacturing
Applications
Uses3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid is commonly used in double bond epoxidation, nitridation, cyclization, Baeyer-Villiger oxidation, and N-oxidation. It can also be used as an oxidant for fine chemicals such as synthetic medicine and pesticides. It is also sometimes used as a bleaching agent [1-6]. • Used in cyclization reaction, Baeyer-Villiger reaction, N-oxidation reaction and S-oxidation reaction. • Used as an oxidant for fine chemical products such as synthetic medicine and pesticides. • Used as oxidant and bleach. • As a good electrophilic reagent, it can react with many functional groups and can oxidize olefins, enol silyl ethers, furans, sulfides, selenides and amino compounds.
Uses3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid is a strong oxidizing agent used in the oxidation reactions such as aldehydes and ketones to esters (Bayer-Villiger-Oxidation), olefines to epoxides, sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones, and amines to nitroalkanes, N-oxides.
UsesEffective oxidant for epoxidizing di-, tri-, and tetra-substituted olefins.
General Description3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid is sensitive to heat. Storage of 3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid must be done so with stringent temperature control measures. It's explosion hazard is also mitigated by mixing the peroxide in a solvent slurry.
