Abstract

A convenient and efficient application of mortar and pestle for the conversion of benzaldehydes to the carboxylic acids. Good yields of products were obtained in short reaction times. This technique was able to oxidize aromatic aldehydes to the corresponding aromatic carboxylic acids with an extreme by moderate yield. The molar yields of benzoic acid from benzaldehyde, p-bromobenzoic acid from p bromobenzaldehyde, 3-methoxybenzoic acid from 3-methoxybenzaldehyde and 3- chlorobenzoic acid from 3-chlorodehyde were approximately 49%.
