Well-dispersed sulfated zirconia nanoparticles as high-efficiency catalysts for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes and biodiesel

Well-dispersed sulfated zirconia nanoparticles were synthesized with poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) as a surfactant. The resultant sulfated zirconia nanoparticles are characterized by SEM, XRD, FT-IR and XPS. These nanoparticles were directly used as catalysts for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes and biodiesel via electrophilic substitution reaction of indole with various aldehydes and the esterification of long-chain free fatty acids and exhibited excellent catalytic activity. The mechanism of the formation of the synthesized zirconia nanoparticles was also proposed.

Process for producing fatty acid alkyl ester composition

An object of the present invention is to solve a problem of separation and recovery of catalysts present in an alkali metal catalytic method currently often used, a problem of excess consumption of a catalyst by a free fatty acid in a raw material, and other problems, and to solve a problem of the presence of a large excess amount of alcohol in a conventional supercritical methanol method, and to provide a method for producing a fatty acid alkyl ester composition in a reaction system containing water and free fatty acid present. The present invention has attained the above-mentioned object by provided a method for producing a fatty acid alkyl ester composition using fats and oils containing a fatty acid glyceride and/or fatty acid, wherein alcohol and/or water is allowed to co-exist with the above-mentioned fats and oils and the reaction is conducted under conditions of a temperature of 100° C. to 370° C. and a pressure of 1 to 100 MPa.
