- Product Name:didodecyl sebacate
- CAS Number:2432-88-4
- Molecular formula:C34H66O4
- Molecular Weight:538.8854
Yield:2432-88-4 81%
Reaction Conditions:
with 1-hexadecyl-3-sulfo-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride in neat (no solvent) at 110; for 16 h;Green chemistry;
Steps:
General esterification procedure
General procedure: Into a reaction flask dicarboxylic acid and fatty alcohol or cholesterol were added at the ratio of 1:2, respectively. After addition of the ionic liquid catalyst (2.5 mmol %) the resulting mixture was heated with stirring at 110 °C for 16 h. At the end of this, the flask was cooled to room temperature and the resulting solid reaction mixture was crystallized from THF/MeOH to afford pure crystalline product.
