Oxidation of aniline furnishes an example for comparison of a number of
oxidizing agent.
Oxidizing agent Product
Manganese dioxide in sulfuric acid. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Quinone
Potassium dichromate in dil sulfuric acid at
O-lOoC, for 24 hr ... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Quinone
Potassium permanganate:
Acid ........................................ . . . . . . . . . . . .Aniline black
Alkaline ................................... . ....Azobenzene + ammonia
Neutral. ................................ . . . Azobenzene +nitrobenzene
Alkaline hypochlorite ................................. . . . .... Nitrobenzene
Hypochlorous acid ........................................ . . ..... p-Aminophenol
Another substance exihibiting a variety of action toward oxidizing agent
is furfural.
1)Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)
Hydrogen peroxide is manufactured, marketed, and
used as an aqueous solution. 90 per cent hydrogen
peroxide free of impurities is stable, may be stored
in high-purity (99.6 per cent) aluminum containers,
but requires intelligent handling.
85-90 weight per cent hydrogen peroxide has a high
order of
stability. It is packed in pure aluminium containers
&may be shifted in drums or tank cars.
Used in textile bleaching, pulp & paper bleaching,
plastisizer,& stabilizer, and in foam ribber
manufacturing.
 Sodium hypochlorite is an inexpensive, strong
oxidizing agent. It is unstable as a solid, but solutions
of up to 40% are commercially available that contain
NaOH and NaCl as byproducts of the preparation:
2 NaOH + Cl2 → NaCl + NaOCl + H2O
 Hypochlorite solutions liberate toxic gases such as
chlorine when acidified or heated.
 USES: Bleaching, Disinfectant, Cleaning ,
Deoderising, Bleaching,
Reduction of skin damage , Reduction of skin
damage, Reduction of skin damage,
 The use of ozone for the oxidation of oleic acid to azelaic plus
pelargonic acids has reached commercial practicability in a
multimillion-dollar plant. The ozone is produced from oxygen
in ozonizers designed and manufactured by Welsbach
Corporation.
 It is use in the conversion of tertiary amines to amine oxides, a-
pinene to pinonic and pinic acids, olefins to ozonides and these
in turn to aldehydes and oxy-peroxides, & sulfides to
sulfoxides and sulfones, and of various other organic
substances.
 USES: textile bleaching, paperbleaching, and water
purification
