Abstract
The kinetics was studied of the hydroxyethylation reaction of n-butyl alcohol in dodecane at the ethylene oxide concentration of 0.72 mole/l iter in the initial mixture. It was shown that the experimental result s are adequately described by a kinetic equation obtained taking into account the phenomenon of the autoassociation of the alcohol molecules . A dependence was obtained of the composition of the associate or the cluster molecules of n-butyl alcohol on the concentration of the solv ent.
