Formic acid synthesis by lower alkyl formate hydrolysis
Formates of one to four carbon alkanols, preferably methyl formate, are hydrolyzed autocatalytically to formic acid with substantial reduction in reaction time. The process involves establishing and maintaining a single phase within the liquid components during hydrolysis by preselecting composition...

Zusammenfassung: | Formates of one to four carbon alkanols, preferably methyl formate, are hydrolyzed autocatalytically to formic acid with substantial reduction in reaction time. The process involves establishing and maintaining a single phase within the liquid components during hydrolysis by preselecting composition ratios. |
