General description

Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), which is generally referred to as bleach, is a strong oxidizing agent. It has been used in many organic reactions like epoxidation of olefins, and oxidation of some hydrocarbons, aldehydes, alcohols, aliphatic ethers, etc.

Application

Sodium hypochlorite can be used in the synthesis of methyl phenyl glyoxylate by oxidation of methyl mandelate.
