ABSTRACT:
A method of performing an oxidation reaction in which an alkali hypohalite is used as an oxidizing agent which comprises: carrying out the oxidation reaction in an aqueous medium with concurrently distilling off a solvent used in the reaction as the reaction proceeds under a reduced pressure.
The method is in particular useful for the oxidation of diacetone-L-sorbose to diacetone-2-keto-L-gulonic acid in water. The reaction temperature is so accurately controlled that the same optimum yield of diacetone-2-keto-L-gulonic acid is obtained by the use of a reduced amount of sodium hypochlorite as compared with the conventional manner of reaction under atmospheric pressure.
