- PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF CYCLIC ACETALS THAT CAN BE USED AS COMPONENTS FOR DIESEL FUELS
-
The present invention relates to a process for preparing cyclic acetals that can be used as components for diesel fuel. More specifically, the present invention relates to a process for preparing cyclic acetals having an ethereal function that can be used as diesel fuel components preferably starting from precursors of a biological origin such as, for example, starting from glycerol of a biological origin. With the process of the present invention, it is possible, for example, to prepare etherified cyclic acetals having a 1,3-dioxolane and 1,3-dioxane structure, that can be used as diesel fuel components, starting from non-etherified cyclic acetals having a 1,3-dioxolane structure, which in turn can be obtained from glycerol derivatives, in particular glycerol of a biological origin, such as 1,2-diols, for example, 1,2-propanediol.
