摘要

CATALYTIC PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OFALKOXYLATED ESTERSABSTRACT OF THE INVENTIONThe reaction of a monohydroxyl ordihydroxyl alcohol with an alpha, beta-unsaturatedester in contact with a strongly basic anionicexchange resin in the hydroxyl or alkoxide form isunexpectedly and unpredictably enhanced by propercontrol of the water content in the reaction mixtureand the temperature at which the reaction is carriedout.
