Abstract
Various branched-chain carboxylic acids
have been oxidized with the following reagents: (A) potassium manganate in
dilute alkali; (B) potassium permanganate in concentrated alkali; (C) potassium
peroxydisulphate in dilute alkali; (D) potassium peroxydisulphate in dilute
acid. In most cases hydroxy-acids were formed by oxidation at the tertiary
position but the yields were poor. None of these reagents appears to provide a
general method for the preparation of lactones from branched-chain saturated
carboxylic acids.
