Abstract
With a view to developing a method of esterification at room temperature on a vertical column, we chose phosphorus pentoxide as the packing reagent, which was diluted with anhydrous copper sulfate and sodium sulfate to avoid the blocking of the column. Anhydrous copper sulfate served as a water scavenger and also as an indicator for the progress of the reaction and the duration of the reactivity of the column through its color change, while ...
