Glycolic acid is a useful and important α-hydroxy acid that has broad applications. Herein, the homogeneous ruthenium catalyzed reforming of aqueous ethylene glycol to generate glycolic acid as well as pure hydrogen gas, without concomitant CO2 emission, is reported. This approach provides a clean and sustainable direction to glycolic acid and hydrogen, based on inexpensive, readily available, and renewable ethylene glycol using 0.5 mol % of catalyst. In-depth mechanistic experimental and computational studies highlight key aspects of the PNNH-ligand framework involved in this transformation.

Paragraph 0036, (2018/09/28)
Disclosed is a method of producing hydrogen from monoethylene glycol. The method includes mixing an aqueous base, monoethylene glycol, and an iridium chloride (IrCl3) catalyst solubilized therein under conditions sufficient to produce hydrogen from the ethylene glycol present in the basic homogeneous aqueous solution.

The hydrolysis of chloroacetic acid and sodium hydroxide is carried out at 45-85 °C by using equal mole of sodium chloroacetate and alkali. Using reasonable approximation, the hydrolysis reaction is proved to be a second-order reaction when the conversion is less than 95 % and the kinetic rate coefficients are determined. The activate energy is calculated 103 kJ mol-1.
