Abstract
Propyl Propionate was catalytically synthesized by the esterification reaction of n - propanol with propionic acid by catalysis of Ti(SO4)2·4H2O. The effect of the amount of catalyst used, the molar ratio of n - propanol to propionic acid, reaction time and the amount of remove water reagent used on the esterification reaction were discussed. Under the optimun reaction conditions the conversion could reach 96.5% .
