Synthesis of 2-methylpropanol-1 from ethylene and ethanol at high pressure was investigated. The process parameters were determined and the effect of temperature and reaction time on the product yield was studied.
The research's main aim is to synthesize saturated alcohols containing four or more carbon atoms in the chain from ethylene and ethanol, which are products of natural gas processing. During of investigation, isobutyl and isohexyl alcohols were synthesized, and the optimal conditions for the process were determined. The dependence of the product yield on various factors has been studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
