Application

Oxalic acid may be used as a catalyst to synthesize:2-aryl-1-arylmethyl-1H-benzimidazoles from o-phenylenediamine and aldehydes2-aryl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazoles from benzyl/benzoin, ammonium acetate and aromatic aldehydesbis-compounds of indole and 2-naphthol in an aqueous medium

Oxalic acid was used:in the synthesis of hemicellulose hydrolysates of yellow poplarsin the synthesis of three-dimensionally ordered macroporous metal oxides or carbonates via templating with polystyrene spheresas supporting electrolyte in the electrochemical synthesis of polyaniline-polypyrrole composite coatings
