Improvement of Synthetic Technology for Butyl Benzoate

Lan Ying-chun

Abstract

The synthesis of butyl benzoate with ferric trichloride as catalyst was studied.The effects of reaction parameters were investigated and the optimum conditions were determined as follows: the molar ratio of benzoic acid to butanol 1∶3.0,the molar ratio of catalyst to benzoic acid was 0.04∶1,the reaction time was 2.0 h,and the yield of butyl benzoate was about 90%.
