Obtaining nonglyceride oils by esterification of erythritol, 1,2,3-butanetriol and 1,2,4-butanetriol by carboxylic acids of sunflower, olive and corn oils Chemistry

Abstract

The esterification reaction of erythritol, 1,2,3-butanetriol and 1,2,4-butanetriol with carboxylic acids of sunflower, olive and corn oils has been used to synthesize non-glyceride analogues of the corresponding edible oils. Effective methods for the preparation of tetraacyl erythritol, triacyl erythritol and triacyl butanetrioles have been developed. The physicochemical properties of the obtained compounds are defined.
