Improved Etherification of Glycerol with <i>Tert</i>-Butyl Alcohol by the Addition of Dibutyl Ether as Solvent
The etherification of glycerol with <i>tert</i>-butyl alcohol in the presence of acid catalysts gives rise to the production of ethers (monoethers, diethers and triethers) of high added-value, which can be used as oxygenated additives in fuels. This reaction is limited by the thermodynam...
