Caprolactam-Based Brønsted Acidic Ionic Liquids for Biodiesel Production from Jatropha Oil

Caprolactam-based ionic liquids show many advantages, such as the lower toxicity, lower cost, and a simple preparation process. In this work, caprolactam-based ionic liquids were prepared and adopted as catalysts for the transesterification of Jatropha oil with methanol. The results demonstrated tha...
