Abstract

The MCM-41 supported Cs2.5H0.5PW12O40 and K2.5H0.5PW12O40 salts were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation method. The solids were characterized by N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, FT-IR, XRD, and temperature programmed desorption, etc. This catalyst has been found to exhibit excellent activity for acetylation of phenolic compounds. The catalyst is stable and reusable giving 96% conversion with 100% selectivity towards acetate products.

Phosphotungstic acid and its cesium and potassium salts supported on MCM-41 are found to be very active and an efficient catalyst for acetylation of aromatic alcohols. Inexpensive and easily available acetic acid as acetylating agent was used. The catalyst 50CsPTA/MCM-41 showed highest conversion (yield 96%).
