I don't think that's a right answer because per- prefix is used if there is an oxyanion with the same charge but one more oxygen than the -ate oxyanion,but I still can't find the acid.
Dr. Paech’s suggestion seems very reasonable. It is either “perchloro, peroxy acid” (viz. Cl3C-C(O)OO-) or simply “peroxy chloro acetic acid”, which would imply it is the mono chloroacetic acid with the extra “O”, ClCH2-C(O)OO-.
Added later: Peroxy trichloroacetic acid is known, apparently. Check the weblink attached (Pg 132).
I think the second answer “peroxy chloro acetic acid”, which would imply it is the mono chloroacetic acid with the extra “O”, ClCH2-C(O)OO-" is the one I am looking for.
Can Mr. Venkatramani Please suggest how can I obtain it in commercially readymade form?Or have I got to synthesize it by acid hydrolysis of Peroxyacetic Acid?Please suggest
@ Debarati: I have no idea how to obtain it commercially or make it. I know I can look it up but I suggest you do that. I associate peracids with Baeyer-villiger oxidation, and would start off from there. Good luck.
