An integrated process for the preparation of carboxylic acids using iso-paraffins is provided. The process includes oxidatively carbonylating a compound having a carbon-hydrogen bond with dialkyl peroxide, carbon monoxide and water. Concurrently, the iso-paraffin is converted to iso-alcohol. The process provides access to a wide range of useful carboxylic acids and operates under relatively mild conditions.

An online continuous flow production process for directly preparing organic peroxides by using hydrogen peroxide as a raw material. This production process uses hydrogen peroxide, catalyst, and an oxidation substrate as a raw material. Substrate will be turned to designated peroxides sequentially through oxidation and workup. This process is performed in a plug-and-produce integrated continuous flow reactor, and the raw materials are continuously fed to the reactor. So, specified peroxide can be continuously obtained at the outlet of the plug-and-produce integrated continuous flow reactor.
