Popis: Ultrasound was applied to low molecular weight organic compounds in dilute aqueous solutions. The transformation of these dilute methanol, acetone, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde solutions under static sonolysis at ambient condition was found to form acetate and formate products, which were measured by ion chromatography. These chromatograms were deduced from the ion chromatograms of known standards prior to and after the sonolysis of the sample runs. Under static sonolysis, the dilute methanol solutions yielded more acetate than formate and the formaldehyde solutions also produced a substantial amount of acetate besides the formate product. The redox transformation mechanism of the one carbon compounds as CH3OH and HCHO solutions to form the two carbon containing acetate product was presented.
