Kinetics of Transesterification of Methyl Acetate and n-Butanol Catalyzed by Ionic Liquid

Abstract: The kinetic behavior and chemical equilibrium of the transesterification of methyl acetate with n-butanol catalyzed by an ionic liquid were investigated. The effects of reaction temperature, initial reactant molar ratio, and catalyst concentration on the reaction rate were studied. A reaction mechanism for transesterification catalyzed by ionic liquid is proposed based on Brønsted theory. Two different kinetic models, the ideal homogeneous (IH) model and the nonideal homogeneous (NIH) model, were used to corre… Show more

“…Moreover, the study highlighted that the catalytic activity increased with increasing acidity of the ILs and particularly with cations bearing SO 3 H anions (Scheme 5: ILs I , II , III , and IV ). The same imidazolium salts ( I and II , respectively) have been used also by Cui et al for the transesterification of methyl acetate and n- butanol [47]. The authors observed that the presence of two acidic sites in both the cation and the anion of ILs improved the performance of the catalyst, in analogy to previously reported results for the synthesis of esters from the reaction of nitriles and alcohols [48].…”
