Cobalt(II) acetate (Co(OAc)2) has been found to be an efficient catalyst for the carboxylation reaction of saturated hydrocarbons with CO to yield the corresponding carboxylic acids in high yields in the presence of K2S2O8 and CF3COOH. About 89.5% conversion of propane is obtained in this reaction. The activation parameters of the reaction of propane have been determined by Arrhenius and Eyring plots.

Selective carboxylic acid decarboxylation was elaborated. Generation of acyltrifluoroacetyl peroxides from carboxylic peracids and trifluoroacetyl anhydride (Method A), as well as from trifluoroperacetic acid and acyltrifluoroacetyl anhydride (Method B), leads to simultaneous peroxide decomposition into the corresponding alkyltrifluoroacetates. DFT computations, as well as experimental data, support an acid-catalyzed heterolytic mechanism for acyltrifluoroacetyl peroxide decomposition.

Magnesium powder (Mg) promoted the carboxylation reaction of saturated hydrocarbons with carbon monoxide (CO) in the presence of potassium peroxodisulfate (K2S2O8) in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) to yield the corresponding carboxylic acids and alkyl trifluoroacetates. About 80% conversion of cyclohexane was achieved when 5 mmol of magnesium, 5 mmol of potassium peroxodisulfate, 3 mL of TFA, 1 mmol of cyclohexane, 50 atm of CO were used at 80 °C for 30 h.
