An environmentally benign method to accelerate the pinacol rearrangement in high temperature liquid water by the addition of CO2 was proposed.The effects of CO2 initial pressure and temperature on the kinetics of pina...
The kinetics of non-catalyzed pinacol rearrangement in high temperature liquid water was investigated at 10 MPa and temperature from 180℃ to 220℃. Rate constants were evaluated with the first-order reaction assumpti...
