1-Octanol → Mono-n-octyl phthalate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Solution I, a 50 percent solution of octyl hydrogen phthalate and decyl hydrogen phthalate in mixed 1-decanol/1-octanol was prepared by heating a mixture of 82.4 g. of Epal 810 (a commercially available mixture from Ethyl Corporation of approximately half 1-decanol and half 1-octanol), 29.6 g. of phthalic anhydride and 1 g. of triethylamine up to 120° C. Then 1.46 parts by weight of solution I was combined with 1 part by weight of the 50 percent hydrolyzed silane (1) solution described in Example 7 to give solution II containing 1 mole of carboxylic acid per mole of primary amino group.
