Abstract

Based on the obtained kinetic regularities and the mixture of the products of the reaction of ethylbenzene oxidation with ozone in acetic acid, the scientific bases of the technology of synthesis of acetophenone was developed. It is shown that in the ozonation conditions, in the presence of manganese (II) acetate, it is possible to direct oxidation mainly through the ethyl group of the substrate with the formation of aromatic products. The technological parameters are studied and the optimal conditions for the process realization are ascertained. The obtained experimental and theoretical results allowed us to propose a new low-temperature low-waste method of acetophenone production, which ensures the efficiency of the process due to the mild oxidation conditions (288 K, atmospheric pressure) and the reduction of toxic waste. The technology can be an alternative to existing methods of the synthesis of aromatic ketones.
