Hr. Yang et al., PREPARATION OF SALICYLIC AND RESIN SUPPORTED FECL3 LEWIS-ACID CATALYST AND ITS APPLICATION TN ORGANIC-SYNTHESIS, Synthetic communications, 28(7), 1998, pp. 1233-1238
The catalytic effects of salicylic acid resin supported FeCl3 catalyst
on the esterification of alcohol and carboxylic acid and on the aceta
lization (ketal formation) of aldehyde (ketone) and alcohol have been
investigated. This catalyst is convenient to use, noncorrosive, easy t
o be separated from reactants and can be repeatedly used.
