Abstract
The working conditions of synthesizing 2-methylbutanoic acid by oxidizing 2-methyl-1-butanol with tetrabutylammonium hydrosulfate (TBAS) or tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) as phase transfer catalyst in sulfuric acid Cr(Ⅵ) oxidation medium was studied. The Cr(Ⅵ) oxidation medium could be electrolytic regenerated from Cr(Ⅲ), during above oxidation reaction. Under the optinum condition, the yield of 2-methylbutanoic acid is more than 95%.
