para-Toluene sulphonic acid (p-TSA)-treated montmorillonite clay used as heterogeneous catalyst in acylation of para-cresol (PC) with aliphatic carboxylic acids. Reactions were studied under microwave and conventional modes of heating and reaction conditions were optimized by varying mole ratio, temperature, amount of catalyst and reaction time. Under optimized conditions the reaction was carried out involving p-cresol and decanoic acid. The reaction involved two steps, O-acylation involving ester formation followed by the Fries rearrangement involving C-acylation resulting in ketone product. Microwave heating mode showed higher conversion and the catalytic activity almost retained in repeated use. On the other hand the catalytic activity dropped by more than 50% in the case of conventional heating indicating rapid deactivation. A change in the color of the used catalyst was more intense in the case of conventional than in the microwave heating. Used catalysts were characterized for surface area and pore volume by BET technique, acidity by FTIR spectroscopy and amount of coke by TGA. Further investigations on the catalyst used in conventional heating revealed that the deactivation occurred during the O-acylation and not in the subsequent Fries rearrangement. However, the catalyst in the microwave irradiated reaction, exhibited a retarded rate of formation of coke precursors on the surface during O-acylation, thus preventing any decrease in catalytic activity. Present study indicates that the technique chosen for heating the reaction medium plays an important role in suppressing deactivation. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Solventless liquid-phase acylation of p-cresol with different aliphatic carboxylic acids like acetic, propionic, butyric, hexanoic, octanoic, and decanoic acids was investigated over BEA zeolite under conventional as well as microwave heating. An unanticipated huge difference in activity was observed between two modes of heating. Under conventional heating, conversion of all the acids was less than 20%, while under microwave heating, the conversion was in the range of 50-80%. Ester formed through O-acylation and ortho-hydroxyketone formed through Fries rearrangement of the ester were the only products. Conversion of carboxylic acid increased with chain length up to hexanoic acid and then it showed a decrease in the trend. With all the acids, O-acylation occurred rapidly followed by slow conversion to ortho-hydroxyketone. The ketone/ester ratio increased with catalyst amount, temperature, and reaction time. Used catalyst samples were characterized by TGA, XRD, and IR studies to understand lower activity and deactivation behavior under conventional heating. The results showed absence of coke precursor/coke on the catalyst used in microwave-irradiated reactions in contrast to catalyst used in conventionally heated ones. Higher yield in the case of microwave-assisted reactions is attributed to the prevention of coke precursor/coke on the active sites by microwaves. (c) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
