Application

Ammonium cerium(IV) nitrate was used to initiate the graft polymerization of polyacrylic acid with magnetic cation exchange adsorbents, which was used in conjugation with micellar aqueous two-phase systems for protein separation.
Offers a novel route to tartronic acid derivatives via facile oxygenation of malonates.
