Reaction conditions of RuO_4 oxidation of coals were investigated to produce carboxylic acids with high yields and without secondary reactions. Amounts of mono-and dicarboxylic acids increase by a decrease in coal rank, which tendencies may reflect those of alkyl groups and methylene bridges contained in coals, respectively. Maximum amount of adipic acid, as connected to naphthenic rings in coal, was observed for coals with 80-85 wt%C.
