Study of the reaction of olefins with acetic acid

The purpose of this work is to study the esterification liquid olefins with acetic acid in presence catalysts and structure properties synthesized saturated esters. 1-Hexene, 2-methyl-1-pentene, 2-ethyl-1-pentene, 3-methyl-1-pentene, 3-methyl-2-pentene were used as for reaction: H2SO4 HCl. influence various factors (the nature catalysts, relative activity temperature a) on rate reaction was studied. It has been shown that much higher sulfuric than established acid, an increase length side aliphatic substituent 2-methyl-1-pentene ester formation decreases. mechanisms reactions are presented. A basic technological scheme production esters proposed.
