Catalytic Synthesis of Isoamyl Isovalerate with Ceric Sulfate

Ruan Qun

Abstract

Isoamyl isovalerate has been synthesized by using ceric sulfate as catalyst. The optimized conditions are as follows: the weight of catalyst is 1.0g, the mole ratio of alcohol to acid is 1.5∶1.0, the reaction time is 1.5?h and the reagent (toulene) with water is 10?mL, and the esterification yield is 95.3%.The catalyst can be isolated from other substances and used repeatedly.
