Embodiment 1

[0020] A method for synthesizing benzoic acid by oxidation of toluene, the steps are as follows:

[0021] In a 25mL quartz tube, add toluene 9.2mg, cerium acetate 3.0mg, ethanol 4.0mg, CH 3 CN 2mL. The resulting mixture was irradiated for 12 hours at 80° C. under a 450 nm light source. Remove CH under reduced pressure 3 CN, column chromatography obtained 11.9 mg of the target product, benzoic acid, with a yield of 98%.

[0022] The product structure is

[0023]

[0024] The NMR data of the product are: 1 H NMR (400MHz, DMSO) δ12.98(s, 1H), 7.95(d, J=8.0Hz, 2H), 7.63(t, J=7.2Hz, 1H), 7.50(t, J=7.6Hz, 2H ). 13 C NMR (100 MHz, DMSO) δ 167.4, 132.9, 130.8, 129.3, 128.6.

Embodiment 2

[0026] A method for synthesizing benzoic acid by oxidation of toluene, the steps are as follows:

[0027] In a 25mL quartz tube, add toluene 9.2mg, cerium acetate 3.0mg, ethanol 4.0mg, CH 3 CN 2mL. The resulting mixture was irradiated for 12 hours at 60° C. under a 450 nm light source. Remove CH under reduced pressure 3 CN, column chromatography obtained 10.9 mg of the target product, benzoic acid, with a yield of 90%.

[0028] Product structure and NMR data are the same as in Example 1.

[0029] Compared with Example 1, the difference of this example is that the reaction temperature is 60°C.

Embodiment 3

[0031] A method for synthesizing benzoic acid by oxidation of toluene, the steps are as follows:

[0032] In a 25mL quartz tube, add toluene 9.2mg, cerium acetate 3.0mg, ethanol 4.0mg, CH 3 CN 2mL. The resulting mixture was irradiated for 12 hours at 80°C under a 400nm light source. Remove CH under reduced pressure 3 CN, column chromatography obtained 11.2 mg of the target product, benzoic acid, with a yield of 92%.

[0033] Product structure and NMR data are the same as in Example 1.

[0034] Compared with Embodiment 1, the difference of this embodiment is that a 400nm light source is used.
