Abstract: | Summary The direct esterification and gas chromatographic analysis of aromatic carboxylic acids as n-propyl esters is described.Derivatization is performed in aqueous solution with n-propanol in the presence of sulfuric acid. The n-propyl esters of benzoic, phthalic, trimellitic and pyromellitic acids permit their gas chromatographic separation from each other and from fatty acids and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids. At mode ratios of H2O]/n-PrOH]0.03 the water present does not interfere with the esterification reaction. At mole ratios above 0.03 anhydrous sodium sulfate is used for binding the water, at mole ratios of Na2SO4anh.]/H2O]=0.51–1.52 and of H2SO4]/Na2SO4anh.]=0.43–1.28, respectively. |
