<p>Carboxylic acids having the general formula: R-COOH wherein R is selected from the group consisting of aryl, aralkyl, aralkenyl, aralkynyl, heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, heteroarylalkenyl, heteroarylalkynyl, alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl, optionally substituted by inert or non-reactive substituents under the reaction conditions, are obtained by oxidation of the corresponding aldehydes with an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal chlorite in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and in an aqueous-organic solvent. The resulting carboxylic acids are utilizable as intermediates for preparing fine chemicals in known ways.</p> |
