New suites of sulfonic acid-functionalized microporous ionic polymers (PIPs) catalysts were synthesized with polymer, alkyl bromides, and 1, 3-propane sultone via a two-step procedure. The synthesized microporous PIP catalysts were characterized using FT-IR, SEM-Mapping, XPS, N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, solid NMR spectroscopy, and element analysis. Esterification of several fatty acids with ethanol, which was used as a model reaction in the stabilization of Jatropha curcas seed oil, was checked over functionalized PIP. We tested the catalytic performance of PIP-C8 on the synthesis of fatty acid esters via the transesterification of J. curcas seed oil with a mixture of short-chain alcohols such as ethanol, ethanol–to–diethyl carbonate (1;1 molar ratio), and ethanol–to–dimethyl carbonate (1:1 molar ratio) with 170 mg of PIP-C8 at reflux temperature with agitation. The PIP-C8 catalyst was particularly effective, having achieved yields of 85%, 94%, and 70% for J. curcas seed oil with ethanol, J. curcas seed oil with ethanol–to–DEC, and J. curcas seed oil with ethanol–to–DMC, respectively, under the optimized reaction conditions. The catalyst could be recycled more than five times without significant deactivation. Kinetic studies performed at different temperatures revealed that the conversion of oleic acid to an ethyl ester follows a first-order reaction. The best catalysts with microporous structure (average pore diameter: 1.7–1.9 nm, pore volume: 0.23–0.33 cm3 g–1) and –SO3H density (0.70–0.84 mmol/gcat) were obtained by 1, 3-propane sultone of the chemically activated. The results indicate that the site activity of functionalized microporous ionic polymer materials shows promising approach for the development of environmentally friendly technology.

Fatty alcohols are important products in chemical industry to be used in the formulation of surfactants and lubricants. This work describes a two step approach for the production of myristyl alcohol under neat conditions by combining a lipase catalyzed esterification of myristic acid and myristyl alcohol with a ruthenium catalyzed hydrogenation of the intermediate myristyl myristate. The esterification was carried out in a bubble column reactor with the commercial immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica as a biocatalyst, while the hydrogenation was conducted under pressurized conditions being catalyzed by the homogeneous chemocatalyst Ru-Macho-BH. By investigating the reaction steps separately, comparable reaction rates were found for the esterification of short chain and long chain alcohols. Additionally, the hydrogen pressure could be reduced to 35 bar compared to the current industrial Lurgi process. Characterization of cross interactions by the reactants myristic acid and sodium myristate in the hydrogenation demonstrates that the metal catalyst was completely deactivated, even at a low amount of 0.5 mol% of myristic acid. Complete conversion of myristic acid in the esterification with equal amounts of myristic acid and myristyl alcohol was obtained, overcoming any limitation in the hydrogenation. In comparison to the Lurgi process starting also from fatty acid and fatty alcohols, the chemoenzymatic two step reaction sequence could be realized at lower reaction temperatures of 60 and 100 °C as well as lower hydrogen pressures of 35 bar.

The invention relates to the field of organic synthesis and provides a preparation method of long-chain ester, which comprises the following steps: carrying out esterification reaction of the carboxylic acid and the alcohol through a catalyst and obtaining a long-chain ester phase and a water phase post the standing and layering of the reaction liquid; the catalyst comprises ionic liquid or eutectic solvent; purifying and separating the long-chain ester phase to obtain high-purity long-chain ester; introducing the residual substance again into the esterification reaction system for reaction after the water in the water phase is removed. The yield and the purity of the long-chain ester prepared by the invented method are as high as 99.8% and 99% respectively as indicated by the embodiment of the preparation method.
