It has been shown that the acid-catalyzed methanolysis of the diethylacetales RCH(OEt)2 of acetaldehyde (R=CH3), propionaldehyde (R = C2H5), butyraldehyde (R = C3H7) and caprylaldehyde (R = C7H15) at temperatures between 283 and 318 K proceeds as a consecutive reaction involving a reversible second step.The pseudo first order rate constants of the three reaction steps, their activation parameters and equilibrium constants were estimated by measuring the concentration-time-curves of starting product, intermediate and final product and using a large excess of methanol.There is a linear dependence be tween rate constants of methanolysis and concentration of the catalyst.
