Abstract: | The oxidation of lactic acid by Cr(VI) under acidic conditions is catalyzed by bidentate amino acid ligands such as glycine, alanine, aspartic acid and hydroxyproline. Catalysis is a function of L]/Cr(VI)] ratio and acidity. Pyruvic acid and acetaldehyde in a ratio of 2 : 1 are obtained as oxidation products in both uncatalyzed and catalyzed oxidation. This supports the previous understanding of the oxidation of -substituted carboxylic acids. Cromium(V) and chromium(VI) behave similarly in a C–H bond rupture (Rocek, J. and Radkowsky, A.E., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1973, vol. 95, p. 7123), whereas Cr(IV) is responsible for C–C bond cleavage products (Wiberg, K.B. and Schafer, H., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1969, vol. 91, p. 927). |
