Notes:
Tracer experiments are presented to demonstrate that there is no incorporation of 18O from the medium into either ethanol or 2-propanol when these alcohols are treated with a platinum catalyst in H218O for extended periods of time. It is concluded that the platinum-catalysed reaction of these alcohols with molecular oxygen does not involve reversible dehydrogenation as an initial step.
