Synthesis of 1,1-diethoxyethane from bioethanol. Influence of catalyst acidity
The reaction of isopropanol decomposition was carried out with the purpose of classifying, in terms of acidity, different catalysts used in the synthesis of 1,1-diethoxyethane. The 1,1-diethoxyethane production is clearly correlated with the acidity of the solids.
