Propionic Acid → Benzoic Acid
Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Propionic Acid | HCID 1032 | — |
| Reactant | Toluene | HCID 1140 | — |
| Product | Benzaldehyde | HCID 240 | 2% |
| Product | Benzoic Acid | HCID 243 | 98% |
Reaction Steps
The experiment of the preceding example was repeated, while replacing acetic acid with propionic acid. Analysis of the reaction mixture after 24 hours showed that 55% of the toluene employed had been converted mainly to yield benzoic acid (98%) and small quantities of benzaldehyde (2%)
