Abstract:
The present invention provides a single step process for the synthesis of furfuryl ethyl ether comprises refluxing the reaction mixture of furfuryl alcohol, ethanol and catalyst at temperature in the range of 80 to 120° C. for the period in the range of 3 to 7 hrs to afford furfuryl ethyl ether. The catalyst used in present invention is Zr incorporated SBA-15. Further, the conversion of furfuryl alcohol is in the range of 60 to 90%. The selectivity of reaction towards furfuryl ethyl ether is in the range of 85 to 95%.
