A Brief Review of Para-xylene Oxidation to Terephthalic Acid As a Model of Primary C-H bond Activation

The oxidation of para-xylene to terephthalic acid has been commercialised as the AMOCO process (Co/Mn/Br) that uses a homogeneous catalyst of cobalt and manganese together with a corrosive bromide compound as a promoter. This process is conducted in acidic medium at a high temperature (175–225°C). C...
