Beschreibung

2-Hydroxy-3,3-dimethylbutanoic acid is an organic compound that is used as a precursor to hypochlorite. It is synthesized by the catalytic oxidation of ethyl formate with a palladium catalyst in an alkaline solution. The resulting 2-hydroxy-3,3-dimethylbutanoic acid has a high yield and can be used as a starting material for the manufacture of sodium hypochlorite and other chlorinating agents. The optical purity of the product can be improved by using ruthenium or copper catalysts in place of palladium.
