Ultrasound was applied to low molecular weight organic compounds in dilute aqueous solutions. The transformation of these dilute methanol, acetone, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde solutions under static sonolysis at ambient condition was found to form acetate and formate products, which were measured by ion chromatography. These chromatograms were deduced from the ion chromatograms of known standards prior to and after the sonolysis of the sample runs.
