Tin-Catalyzed Esterification and Transesterification Reactions: A Review
Figure 5
Effect of the temperature on the SnCl2-catalyzed esterification reaction of oleic acid with ethyl alcohol [9]. Reaction conditions: alcohol ethyl (670.0 mmol), oleic acid (3.5 mmol), SnCl2·2H2O (0.35 mmol), 12 hours reaction, and kinetic data obtained from titration against KOH solution (0.01 mol·L−1).
