The acid is prepared by the reaction of chlorosulfuric acid with hydrogen peroxide: [3] 2 ClSO 3 H + H 2 O 2 → H 2 S 2 O 8 + 2 HCl. Another method is the electrolysis of moderately concentrated sulfuric acid (60-70%) with platinum electrodes at high current density and voltage: H 2 SO 4 + H 2 O → H 3 O + + HSO 4 − (dissociation of ...
The lead chamber process for sulfuric acid production was abandoned, partly because it could not produce sulfur trioxide or concentrated sulfuric acid directly due to corrosion of the lead, and absorption of NO 2 gas. Until this process was made obsolete by the contact process, oleum had to be obtained through indirect methods.
Disulfuric acid (alternative spelling disulphuric acid) or pyrosulfuric acid (alternative spelling pyrosulphuric acid), also named oleum, is a sulfur oxoacid. [3] It is a major constituent of fuming sulfuric acid, oleum , and this is how most chemists encounter it.
Peroxymonosulfuric acid, also known as persulfuric acid, peroxysulfuric acid is the inorganic compound with the formula H 2 SO 5. It is a white solid. It is a component of Caro's acid, which is a solution of peroxymonosulfuric acid in sulfuric acid containing small amounts of water. [4] Peroxymonosulfuric acid is a very strong oxidant (E 0 = +2 ...
Pyrophosphoric acid, also known as diphosphoric acid, is the inorganic compound with the formula H 4 P 2 O 7 or, more descriptively, [(HO) 2 P(O)] 2 O. Colorless and odorless, it is soluble in water, diethyl ether, and ethyl alcohol.
If produced from oleochemical feedstock or the Ziegler process, the hydrocarbon chain of the alcohol will be linear. If derived using the oxo process, a low level of branching will appear usually with a methyl or ethyl group at the C-2 position, containing even and odd amounts of alkyl chains. [3] These alcohols react with chlorosulfuric acid:
A peroxy acid (often spelled as one word, peroxyacid, and sometimes called peracid) is an acid which contains an acidic −OOH group. The two main classes are those derived from conventional mineral acids , especially sulfuric acid , and the peroxy derivatives of organic carboxylic acids .
The reaction mechanism of the Mitsunobu reaction is fairly complex. The identity of intermediates and the roles they play has been the subject of debate. Initially, the triphenyl phosphine (2) makes a nucleophilic attack upon diethyl azodicarboxylate (1) producing a betaine intermediate 3, which deprotonates the carboxylic acid (4) to form the ion pair 5.
