可膨胀石墨催化合成乙酸苄酯

可膨胀石墨作为一种重要的非金属材料已广泛应用于各工业领域 ,将其作为有机质反应催化剂的研究尚不多见1～ 3] 。工业上 ,乙酸苄酯常是以浓Ｈ2 ＳＯ4、对甲苯磺酸等质子酸作催化剂由乙酸和苄醇制得4] ,但此法腐蚀设备 ,污染环境 ,且副反应多。近年来 ,为了寻找对设备腐蚀性小的酯化反应催化剂进行了一些研究 ,如曾报道的酯化反应催化剂有 :四氯化锡复合物5] 、复合固体超强酸6] 、稀土硫酸盐7]等。本文报道可膨胀石墨催化乙酸苄酯的合成 ,与其它催化剂相比 ,具有催化活性高 ,反应温度低 ,反应时间短 ,收率高 ,易分离及再生处理简单等…

Catalytic Synthesis of Benzyl Acetate over Expandable Graphite

Benzyl acetate has been synthesized from benzyl alcohol and acetic anhydride using expandable graphite as a catalyst. The result shows that the larger the expanded volume of expandable graphite, the better the catalytic activity. The yield of benzyl acetate was 98.78% over the expandable graphite of 0 18 g when the reaction was carried out at room temperature for 60 min.
