How do you convert carbon monoxide into oxalic acid?
It is a naturally occurring chemical found in vegetables such as beetroot, spinach, and rhubarb. Oxalic acid also occurs in relatively high concentrations in tea, chocolate, and other cocoa products. It combines with calcium and magnesium in the gut to form insoluble salts which impede the absorption of these essential minerals. High concentrations of oxalic acid are toxic, which is why we do not eat rhubarb leaves (they contain very much more oxalic acid than the stems). oxalic acid is also produced in the human body. About 5 per cent of the population suffer from recurrent kidney stones as a result of internal oxalic acid production. **The oxalic acid of commerce, however, is manufactured in ton quantities by reacting sugar with nitric acid, in the presence of a catalyst.
