Mechanism of Formation of Tetrahydrofuran in the Catalytic Hydrogenation of Dialkyl Succinates
The kinetics of formation of tetrahydrofuran from dibutyl succinate were studied. The mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation of dialkyl succinates was found to involve consecutive formation of ?-butyrolactone, butane-1,4-diol, and tetrahydrofuran. Parameters of kinetic equations that properly describe...

Summary: | The kinetics of formation of tetrahydrofuran from dibutyl succinate were studied. The mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation of dialkyl succinates was found to involve consecutive formation of ?-butyrolactone, butane-1,4-diol, and tetrahydrofuran. Parameters of kinetic equations that properly describe the system of concurrent and consecutive reactions were determined. |
