The oxidation of oxybenzone was attempted with a reaction of oxybenzone, dioxane, and potassium permanganate.
Making the Samples For Chemical Oxidation
2 mM Oxybenzone Buffer Stock Solution
Combined 50 mL of dioxane, 50 mL of pH 7 buffer solution, and 45.7 mg of oxybenzone in a bottle. Added the oxybenzone to the dioxane, and then added the buffer solution.
Potassium Permanganate Stock Solutions
2mM Potassium Permanganate Stock Solution
- Dissolved 0.0316 g of potassium permanganate in 100 mL of RO water.
4mM Potassium Permanganate Stock Solution
- Dissolved 0.0632 g of potassium permanganate in 100 mL of RO water.
10mM Potassium Permanganate Stock Solution
- Dissolved 0.158 g of potassium permanganate in 100 mL of RO water.
20mM Potassium Permanganate Stock Solution
- Dissolved 0.316 g of potassium permanganate in 100 mL of RO water.
Preparing the final samples
Added 5 mL of the oxybenzone buffer stock solution to a scintillation vial. Then added 5 mL of the 1 mM Potassium Permanganate Stock Solution to the same vial that contained the oxybenzone buffer solution. Mixed solution thoroughly. This vial now contained 1 mM oxybenzone solution and 1 mM potassium permanganate solution once dilution was accounted for. This process was repeated with the rest of the potassium permanganate solutions.
