From available and bio-sourced methyl esters, monoglycerides or oleic sunflower refined oil, the corresponding 1-O-alkyl (di)glycerol ethers were obtained in both high yields and selectivity by two different pathways. With methyl esters, a reductive alkylation with (di)glycerol was realized under 50 bar hydrogen pressure in the presence of 1 mol% of Pd/C and an acid co-catalyst. A second two step procedure was evaluated from methyl esters or triolein and consisted of a first transesterification to the corresponding monoglyceride with a BaO/Al2O3 catalyst, then its reduction to the desired glycerol monoether with a recyclable heterogeneous catalytic system Pd/C and Amberlyst 35 under H2 pressure. In addition, a mechanism for the reaction was also proposed.

A coalescent composition selected from 1,3-(C6-C12alkyloxy)-2-propanol, 1,1'-oxybis[3-(C6-C12alkyloxy)]-2-propanol, and mixtures thereof is provided. Preferred coalescents are 1,3-(decyloxy)-2-propanol and 1,1'-oxybis[3-(heptyloxy)]-2-propanol. A method for forming glycerol diethers and diglycerol diethers, an aqueous coating composition including the coalescent compositions and a method for forming a coating are also provided.
