| Abstract: | Aqueous solution of potassium persulfate converts water-insoluble carboxylic acids in ether (or dichloromethane), to peracids in a yield of 80–90% under the catalytic influence of benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BTEAC) or polyethyleneglycol (PEG-400). The reaction is further catalyzed kinetically in presence of a sulfonated polymer. |
