A most effective and less energy demanding method of producing fatty esters, diol esters, by esterifying fatty acids, with neopentyl and ethylenglycol alcohols in the presence of an acidic ion exchange resin catalyst(polyestyrendivinylbenzensulfated) was investigated at elevated temperature. In this process an azeotroping agent, toluene, was used to facilitate continuous removal of water by dis...

The esterification activity of microbial lipase (triacyl glycerol hydrolase, E.C. 3.1.1.3) in water-organic biphasic solvent system has been investigated. The lipase produced from Rhizopus arrhizus NCM997 strain by solid-state fermentation, using rice bran as substrate, exhibited novel capability of catalyzing esterification reaction. The partially purified lipase was coated with nonionic surfa...

in the chemical industry, process intensification is needed to meet important goals such as sustainable and eco-friendly processes. for esterification reaction the “produce more with less pollution” objective can be achieved by coupling reaction and separation in a so called integrated process. in this work a model for describing the esterification reaction of ethyl acetate in pervaporation mem...

SBA-15 is an interesting mesoporous silica material having highly ordered nanopores and a large surface area, which is widely employed as a catalyst. This mesoporous silica due to silanol groups is easily functionalized by various organic materials. A new acidic ordered functionalized mesoporous silica (SBA-15-Aminopropyl-Benzyl-SO3H) has been introduced as an efficient catalyst for ...

Pervaporation membrane reactors are ideal candidates to enhance conversion in reversible reactions generating water as a by-product. This equilibrium displacement can be enhanced through close integration of reaction and separation by way of catalytic membranes. In this research, catalytic hollow fibre pervaporation membranes for the close integration of reaction and separation will be develope...

A facile reaction of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIm]Ac) with dichloromethane at room temperature was observed with esters among the products. This esterification can be exploited for mild solvent-free esterification with a range of other carboxylate-based ionic liquids and alkyl halides.

The synthesis of the antimicrobial cyclic peptide xenematide was accomplished by Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis and the key esterification reaction was achieved using a modified Yamaguchi esterification. Comparison of the optical rotation and NMR data of the synthesized diastereomers to that of the natural product confirmed the structure of xenematide to be PA-L-[Thr-L-Trp-D-Trp-β-Ala]. (PA...
