ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a process for preparing carboxylic acids by platinum-catalyzed oxidation of primary alcohols of limited water solubility with oxygen in a mixture of water and a solubilizer. The solubilizer used is an ether of the general formula R.sub.1 O(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n R.sub.2, where n is 1-4 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl radicals having 1-4 carbon atoms.
