Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to describe a more efficient catalyst for the synthesis of lauraldehyde glycerol acetal. Catalytic effect of methane sulfonic acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid were compared. With a mixture of 0.67 wt.% methanesulfonic acid in relation to lauraldehyde, equimolar amounts of glycerol and lauraldehyde being stirred at 110 °C for 2.5 h, the yield of the product was 76.32 %. When p-toluenesulfonic acid was used, the amount of the catalyst was 0.91 wt.% and the yield of the product was 62.91 % after reacting for 2.5 h at 120 °C. The result reveals that methane sulfonic acid is more efficient. Surface tension measurements showed that critical micelle concentration of the product catalyzed by methanesulfonic acid was 5.33 × 10−5 mol · L−1, and at this point the surface tension could achieve about 24 mN m−1.
Kurzfassung
Ziel dieser Arbeit war, für die Synthese von Laurinaldehydglycerinacetal einen effizienteren Katalysator zu finden. Der katalytische Effekt von Methansulfonsäure und p-Toulensäure wurde verglichen. Equimolare Mengen an Glycerin und Laurinaldehyd wurden zusammen mit 0,67 Gewichtsprozent Methansulfonsäure (in Relation zu Laurinaldehyd) bei 110 °C 2,5 Stunden gerührt. Die Produktausbeute betrug 76,32 %. Wenn p-Toulensäure bei einer Katalysatormenge von 0,91 Gewichtsprozent verwendet wurde, dann betrug die Produktausbeute 62,91 % nach einer Reaktionszeit von 2,5 Stunden bei 120 °C. Das Ergebnis zeigt, dass Methansulfonsäure der effizientere Katalysator ist. Messungen der Oberflächenspannungen ergaben, dass die kritische Mizellenbildungskonzentration (CMC) des mit Methansulfonsäure katalysierten Produkts 5.33 × 10−5 mol · L−1 ist. Die Oberflächenspannung an der CMC lag bei 24 mN m−1.
