Abstract

During the course of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy free radical-catalyzed electrochemical oxidation of d-glucose to d-glucaric acid a new side-product was observed. This compound was isolated and identified as a tricarboxylic acid of unique structure, which was named maribersonic acid. Its structure was proven by different experiments coupled with several analytical methods, and its appearance during the electrochemical oxidation of d-glucose was rationalized through a thorough study.
