Neste trabalho apresentamos os resultados da eterificação do glicerol com álcool benzílico, catalisada por diferentes sólidos ácidos. O mono-éter benzílico do glicerol foi o produto principal nas reações com a zeólita β e a resina ácida Amberlyst-35. Já o éter-di-benzílico foi o produto majoritário nas reações com o ácido p-tolueno-sulfônico e a argila K-10 como catalisadores. O ácido nióbico foi inativo na reação. A estrutura porosa da zeólita impediu a formação significativa de produtos de di e tri eterificação.In this work we present the results of glycerol etherification with benzyl alcohol, catalyzed by different solid acids. The mono-benzyl-glycerol ether was the main product in the reactions catalyzed by β zeolite and Amberlyst-35 acid resin, whereas di-benzyl-ether was formed in higher yield with the use of p-toluene-sulfonic acid and K-10 montmorillonite as catalyst. Niobic acid was inactive in this reaction. The porous structure of the zeolite impaired the formation of di and tri-benzyl-glycerol ethers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
