| Abstract: | A novel method of synthesis of glycidyl carboxylates (2,3‐epoxypropyl carboxylates, RCOOCH2CH‐CH2O) has been developed by carrying out the reaction of epichlorhydrin with a carboxylic acid in the presence of chromium acetate catalyst and subsequent dehydrochlorination of the resulting mixture of chlorohydrin esters followed by their separation. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry |
