Abstract

The tie-acylation of alcoholic functions by esterinterchange with a large excess of a lower alcohol is a procedure of some industrial importance. In the laboratory the process often offers a convenient and sparing equivalent of saponification and also, at times, leads to embarrassing complications when it is desired to keep an ester intact through certain manipulations. It seemed, therefore, desirable to explore further the conditions governing ...
