Abstract
Glutaralclehyde was prepared by oxidation of cyclopentene with aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide. Various catalyst-solvent systems were tested and the highest yield of glutaraldehyde was obtained in WO3.H2O -t-BuOH system: about 60% (30% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide a s oxidant) or 80% (50% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide as oxidan t). Mechanism studies give the result that cyclopentene oxide is the i ntermediate of the reaction.
