Their crystal structures and acidities were determined by XRD and Hammett method, respectively. The activity of the catalyst was studied as function of Al 2O 3 content, calcination temperature and time in the esterification of acetic acid with butanol, and a conversion of 96 5% was obtained. The catalyst gave also higher yields in syntheses of ketals and acetals: cyclohexanone ethylene ketal(86 2%), acetophenone ethylene ketal(78 5%), acetylacetic ester ketal(88 5%), benzaldehyde glycol acetal(76 3%). The chemical structures of the products were confirmed by IR spectra.展开更多
