Potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid react to produce some ozone, which has a high oxidizing power and rapidly oxidizes the alcohol, causing it to combust. As the reaction also produces explosive Mn 2 O 7, this should only be attempted with great caution. [77] [78]
The Koch reaction is an organic reaction for the synthesis of tertiary carboxylic acids from alcohols or alkenes and carbon monoxide. Some commonly industrially produced Koch acids include pivalic acid , 2,2-dimethylbutyric acid and 2,2-dimethylpentanoic acid. [ 1 ]
A permanganate can oxidize an amine to a nitro compound, [7] [8] an alcohol to a ketone, [9] an aldehyde to a carboxylic acid, [10] [11] a terminal alkene to a carboxylic acid, [12] oxalic acid to carbon dioxide, [13] and an alkene to a diol. [14] This list is not exhaustive. In alkene oxidations one intermediate is a cyclic Mn(V) species: [15]
Warm concentrated potassium permanganate (KMnO 4) will react with an alkene to form a glycol. Following this dihydroxylation , the KMnO 4 can then cleave the glycol to give aldehydes or ketones. The aldehydes will react further with (KMnO 4 ), being oxidized to become carboxylic acids .
Alcohol oxidation is a collection of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters. The reaction mainly applies to primary and secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols form ketones, while primary alcohols form aldehydes or carboxylic acids. [1] A variety of oxidants can be used.

Ether cleavage refers to chemical substitution reactions that lead to the cleavage of ethers. Due to the high chemical stability of ethers, the cleavage of the C-O bond is uncommon in the absence of specialized reagents or under extreme conditions. [1] [2] In organic chemistry, ether cleavage is an acid catalyzed nucleophilic substitution reaction.
The planes are fitted with tanks that skim large bodies of water to "scoop" water up and then drop it on fires from above. A Canadair CL-415 Super Scooper firefighting plane dropping water on a ...
