The authors studied certain characteristics of the kinetics of accumulation of the products of autooxidation of diethylene glycol. Experiments show that both methylene groups in diethylene glycol exhibit reactivity during liquid-phase oxidation by atmospheric oxygen. During oxidation near the lower limit of the temperature range studied (90-130+ZZproducts whose formation involve cleavage of the C-O ether bond are formed at the higher rate, whereas at higher temperatures the products of conversion of the hydroxyl group predominate.
