Abstract

Abstract : Oscillatory reactions are a narrow reaction type among the entity of chemical reactions and those involving purely organic compounds make a small contribution to an overall number of all known oscillatory reactions. The most abundant type is purely inorganic and mixed inorganic-organic oxidation-reduction reactions, basically because monitoring them is relatively easy (e.g., with use of potentiometric measurements). Investigation of the organic reactions can be more demanding, and then chromatography is an analytical technique of choice. In this paper, we provide an overview of chromatographic evidence with oscillatory reactions discovered in our laboratory in the course of the last several years that involve the low-molecular-weight carboxylic acids (profen drugs, amino acids, and hydroxy acids). The investigated processes comprise the oscillatory chiral conversion and the oscillatory condensation, spontaneously running in the aqueous and nonaqueous abiotic media, and they were traced with use of TLC and HPLC coupled with different detector types.
