過酸化窒素によるシクロペンタンの液相酸化

抄録

Glutaric acid was obtained in a good yield from cyclopentane through oxidation with NO₂. At 65°C, 65% of the NO₂ used was found to be consumed in 3 hrs., and the yield of the dibasic acid reached 91% on a basis of consumed NO₂. As the reaction temperature was raised, the consumption of NO₂ was accelerated, though the yield of glutaric acid dropped. The effects of the ratio NO₂/cyclopentane upon conversion and yield were less evident than that of temperature. The main by-product from this reaction was mononitrocyclopentane. The reaction rate of NO₂ was expressed by the equation :log k=1.08×10¹²e 21170/RTwhere, k represented reaction rate constant [mol 1^-1 hr^-1];T represented absolute reaction temperature [°K].
