The anticipated worldwide increase in biodiesel production will result in an accumulation of glycerol for which there are insufficient conventional uses. The surplus of this by-product has increased rapidly during the last decade, prompting a search for new glycerol applications. We describe here the synthesis of dissymmetric chlorohydrin esters from symmetric 1,3-dichloro-2-propyl esters obtained from glycerol. We studied the influence of two solvents: 1,4-dioxane and 1-butanol and two bases: sodium carbonate and 1-butylimidazole, on the synthesis of dissymmetric chlorohydrin esters. In addition, we studied the influence of other bases (potassium and lithium carbonates) in the reaction using 1,4-dioxane as the solvent. The highest yield was obtained using 1,4-dioxane and sodium carbonate.

Combining AlCl3·6H2O and an ionic liquid to prepare chlorohydrin esters from glycerol
Villorbina Noguera, Gemma; Tomàs, Albert; Escribà i Gelonch, Marc; Oromí Farrús, Mireia; Eras i Joli, Jordi; Balcells Fluvià, Mercè; Canela i Garayoa, Ramon (Elsevier, 2009)We describe here the first example in which glycerol has been transformed into chlorohydrin esters using an ionic liquid and hydrated aluminium chloride. The method avoids using Crown-18 ether, which was needed to obtain ... -
Use of crude glycerol from biodiesel producers and fatty materials to prepare allyl esters
Escribà i Gelonch, Marc; Eras i Joli, Jordi; Villorbina Noguera, Gemma; Balcells Fluvià, Mercè; Blanch, C.; Barniol, N.; Canela i Garayoa, Ramon (Springer Verlag, 2011)Vegetable oils and fats are important renewable raw materials for use by the biodiesel industry. One drawback of this industry is the large amounts of glycerol produced as a by-product. Consequently, crude glycerol is ... -
Preparation and uses of chlorinated glycerol derivatives
Canela Xandri, Anna; Balcells Fluvià, Mercè; Villorbina Noguera, Gemma; Christou, Paul; Canela i Garayoa, Ramon (MDPI, 2020-05-28)Crude glycerol (C3H8O3) is a major by-product of biodiesel production from vegetable oils and animal fats. The increased biodiesel production in the last two decades has forced glycerol production up and prices down. ...
