| Application: | Potassium permanganate may be employed as an oxidizing agent in the synthesis of the following: • sulfonal (2,2-bisethylsulfonyyl)pr • cinchomeronic acid (pyridine-3,4-dicarboxyli • isonicotinic acid (pyridine-4-carboxylic acid) • manganese(IV) sulfate |
| Application: | Suitable for heterogeneous oxidations. |
| Application: | Used for the decomposition of organic samples for the det. of mercury |
| General description: | Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) exhibits strong oxidizing properties. KMnO4 on dissolution in benzene and on complexation with dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6, affords a useful oxidizing reagent. This reagent participates as an oxidant for the oxidation of olefins, alcohols, aldehydes and alkyl benzenes under mild conditions. |
