Study on Synthesis of Butyl Oleate

Jizhong Li

Abstract

Butyl oleate was synthesized with oleic acid and n-butyl alcohol as feed stocks and p-toluene sulfonic acid as catalyst.The factors of influencing reaction were investigated. Experimental results indicated that the optimum conditions of esterificationreaction are as follows: the mole ratio of oleic acid, n-butyl alcohol and p-toluene sulfonic acid 1∶2∶0.15, the reaction time 70 minand the yield up to 93.92%.
