A method for producing jet range hydrocarbons may include reacting at least a portion a fatty acid stream comprising C18:1 free fatty acid with ozone in an ozonolysis unit to form at least a C18:1 ozonide intermediate; introducing the C18:1 ozonide intermediate into a reactor, wherein at least a portion of the C18:1 ozonide intermediate is reacted with a reductive agent to produce oxidized products comprising azelaic acid and nonanoic acid; and introducing the oxidized products into a hydrotreating unit, wherein at least a portion of the oxidized products is hydrotreated to produce a paraffin product comprising nonane.

The present disclosure provides improved methods of performing ozonolysis on alkenes comprising non-reductive quenching of ozonide intermediates using Bronsted bases to yield aldehyde, ketone and/or carboxylic acid products.

A process for oxidizing an alkyl substrate may comprise combining an alkyl substrate (e.g., propane, n-butane) and ozone in a liquid phase medium comprising a branched alkane activator (e.g., isobutane) and a protic additive (e.g., water) under conditions sufficient to oxidize the alkyl substrate to products. The alkyl substrate may be selected from linear and cyclic alkanes.
