From the very beginning (1) of the study of ozonolysis it has been rather well recognized that the solvents commonly used for this reaction are attacked more or less by ozone. The literature contains many qualitative and contradictory statements regarding the action of ozone on numerous solvents. In only one case (2) could any quantitative information be found. Some investigations (3, 4, 5,6) have been reported, in which a quantitative determination of the ozone decomposed by the solvent must have been carried out, but no pertinent data were given.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
