Esterification reaction rates of aliphatic monocarboxylic acids with primary alcohols in 1,4-dioxane as inert solvent were investigated. Acids were esterified with 1-propanol and alcohols with acetic acid as model reactants at a constant temperature of 60°C, at a fixed ionic strength and pH in a batch reactor with a constant volume. For evaluation of reaction rates, an exact kinetic equation for the equilibrium reaction was applied. Under these conditions and for low reactants, concentrations reaction rate depends only on the structure of reactants and, therefore, can be predicted by a correlation equation with two Taft coefficients (inductive and steric effects). From these equations, it is possible to estimate the esterification reaction rate constant for other acid-alcohol pairs. This methodology may also be suitable for other kinetic systems measured under comparable experimental conditions.

Primary alcohols are selectively and efficiently protected as their pivaloyl esters with pivaloyl chloride in the presence of catalytic amounts of La(NO3)3·6H2O at room temperature under solvent-free conditions in excellent yields. Copyright
