Abstract
A new method has been developed for the chemoselective acetylation of alcohols with acetic anhydride in the presence of phenols using a novel, recyclable CuO-ZnO nanocatalyst. The catalyst was synthesized using the co-precipitation method and characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersion scanning analyses. Furthermore, this catalyst could be recycled up to six times without significant loss in its activity.
