Investigation of the Properties of Unsaturated Allyl Alcohol and its
Oxidation Reaction Products
Abstract
Organic substances in which the -OH group is directly attached to the carbon atom are called alcohols. Unsaturated alcohols are obtained by replacing the hydrogen of ethylene or acetylene-type compounds with a hydroxyl group. Allyl alcohol, the first representative of the class of unsaturated alcohols, contains oxygen. Allyl alcohol is used in optical resins, protective glasses, paints and coatings and polymer cross-linking agents, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals, organic chemicals, plastics, herbicides, and pesticides. In organic chemistry, alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters that carry a higher oxidation state of carbon. Therefore, the selective oxidation of alcohols is an important issue. The properties and selective oxidation reaction of allyl alcohol were investigated in the presented work.
