Abstract
Peroxycarboxylic acids are prepared by the oxidation of a fatty acid with an excess of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a strong acid catalyst. The yield is improved and the reaction time is reduced by intimately dispersing throughout the reaction mixture an inert water immiscible solvent for the peroxycarboxylic acid. The product may be recovered in crystalline form from the solvent phase.
