Abstract
A solid acid catalyst has been prepared by grafting Boron trifluoride on me soporous molecular sieve MCM-41 and characterized by XRD and FTIR technique s. The XRD and FTIR results indicated that the (BF3Et2O)-Et-. interlocks wi th the silicon groups of MCM-41 surface to form strong solid acid. The soli d acid catalyst would effectively promote the opening of epichlorohydrin wi th isobutanol to form 1-isobutoxy-3-chloropropanol, and showed a nice activ ity and selectivity.
