Abstract

Abstract Aliphatic alcohols and water in the presence of catalytic amounts of Fe 3+ ion introduced as acids esterification with various type alcohols was carried out using the system Fe (ClO 4) 3-silica gel in dichloromethane under conditions excluding solvolysis. Acetylation and formylation of alcohols was performed by efficient transesterification with ethyl acetate and ethyl formate.
