Drying by CUSO4 during eserification
« on: December 25, 2019, 04:28:27 AM »
Hello chemists,

I want to ask you if I can during esterification carboxylic acid (formic, acetic and propionic acid) and alcohol use at reflux anhydrous CUSO4 for drying?

Thanks, Lukáš S.

Why not just using excess alcohol? It could probably work but there might be better options than CuSO4
