Ab. Crozon et al., OXIDATION OF 9-DECEN-1-OL (ROSALVA) BY AIR IN AQUEOUS-MEDIA ON PLATINUM CATALYSTS, New journal of chemistry, 22(3), 1998, pp. 269-273
Oxidation of 9-decen-1-ol to 9-decenoic acid was conducted in aqueous
media (dioxane-water mixtures) in the presence of supported palladium
or platinum catalysts. The beneficial effect on the activity of a bism
uth promoter, deposited on the platinum particles by a redox reaction,
was demonstrated. Operating in a mass-transport-limited regime improv
es the resistance of the catalyst to deactivation by over-oxidation.
