Abstract
Octylacetate is synthesized from acetic acid and n octyl alcohol using tungstosilicic acid as catalyst.The influence factors such as molar ratio of acetic acid to n_octyl alcohol,amount of catalyst,and reaction time on the yield of octylacetate are discussed.The results indicate that tungstosilicic acid is a good catalyst for synthesizing octylacetate and its yield can reach over 99.3%
