Abstract

BEA zeolite was synthesized under hydrothermal condition and modified with various amounts of chlorosulphonic acid. It was characterized by XRD, XRF, FT-IR, BET, thermogravimetric analysis and SEM techniques. Catalytic activity of BEA-SO3H was tested for the synthesis of 1, 1-diacetates from a variety of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes including those carrying electron donating or withdrawing substituents by acetic anhydride ...
