Abstract
Isoamyl hexanoate was synthesized with hexanoic acid and isopentanol as raw materials and phosphotungstic acid pure as the catalyst.The factors influencing reaction were investigated.Experimental results indicated that the optimum conditions of esterification reaction were the molar ratio of hexanoic acid and isopentanol and phosphotungstic acid 1∶3∶0.0023,the reaction time 40 min,and the yield got up to 98.92%.
