Kinetic Study of Esterification of Acetic Acid with n-butanol and isobutanol Catalyzed by Ion Exchange Resin

Abstract:

Esters are an important pharmaceutical intermediates and very useful perfumery agents. In this study the esterification of acetic acid with n-butanol and iso-butanol over an acidic cation exchange resin, Amberlyst 15 were carried out. The effects of certain parameters such as temperature, catalyst loading, initial molar ratio between reactants on the rate of reaction were studied. The experiments were conducted in a stirred batch reactor in the temperature range of 351.15 K to 366.15K.Variation of parameter… Show more

“…They have investigated the effects of catalyst loading, reactant molar ratios, initial water concentration and temperature on the reaction rate. Similar studies have also been done by Toor et al (2011) on the esterification of acetic acid with n-butanol and isobutanol over Amberlyst-15 catalyst, and by Akbay and Altiokka (2011) for the esterification reaction of acetic acid with n-amyl alcohol over Amberlyst-15, Amberlyst-36 and Amberlite IR-120 catalysts. For the above reaction of acetic acid with n-amyl alcohol, the effect of external and internal mass transfer resistances on the overall rate have also been studied.…”

“…1,2 In the early years, esterification reactions were carried out by using homogeneous catalysts like inorganic acid, metallic compounds, but they were less recommended due to separation, reuse, and disposal problems. [3][4][5] Hence, ionexchange resin catalysts have gained popularity as they are ecofriendly, noncorrosive, have good thermal stability and selectivity. [4][5][6] Due to their selective adsorption of reactants, surface characteristics, and swelling nature, these heterogeneous catalysts affect the equilibrium conversion.…”

“…Amberlyst 15 was used as a catalyst for this purpose. Reference [11] studied the reaction of acetic acid with n-butanol and iso-butanol using Amberlyst-15. Present work selected esterification of cyclohexanol with acetic acid to produce cyclohexyl acetate by using Amberlyst 15 as catalyst in batch reactor followed by reactive chromatographic reactor (Scheme 1):…”
