I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

One-Pot Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Oxidation of Glycerol to Ketomalonic Acid Mediated by TEMPO

TL;DR: Glycerol, an increasingly abundant byproduct of biodiesel production, is selectively con- verted to ketomalonic acid in one pot at pH 10 using NaOCl as regenerating oxidant in water at 2 C in the presence of catalytic Br along with the radical TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) as mentioned in this paper.
