Abstract


The oxidation of hydroxyacetone with hydrogen peroxide over acid ZrO2-SiO2, WO3/ZrO2-SiO2 and Dowex DR-2030 catalysts at 20–60°С has been studied. It has been shown that reaction products are acetic and formic acids, methanol hydroperoxides and hydroxymethyl acetate that confirms the ionic mechanism of Baeyer-Villiger reaction. It has been found that Dowex DR-2030 provides selective formation of acetic and formic acids at 60°C in a flow regime at 25% excess of H2O2.

Keywords
