Abstract

Oxidation O 0212Oxidation of 2-Methylnaphthalene with Ozone. -The cobalt-catalyzed oxidation of 2-methylnaphthalene (I) with ozone affords 2-naphthoic acid (II), while the non-catalytic oxidation leads to a mixture of hydroperoxides as main products [structures not defined]. -(MAMCHUR, A.
