Can u suggest the best condition for non aqueous ester hydrolysis with quantitative product recovery?
You can try methanolic HCl with one or two drops water refluxed.After completion of reaction concentrate reaction mass under high vacuum.
Thank you (Bilash Kuila) for your response,
previously I tried with 10% aq. KOH method and another with Barium hydroxide octa hydrate reagents. Shure I'll try with methanolic HCl (shall go for 10%?) and wish to reply positive result.
Thank you,
I have a small query, does this can hydrolyse N-alkyl esters also?
because out of five four are N-alkyl esters and one is simple methyl ester.
I had positive results with methyl, ethyl and benzyl esters but never had the opportunity to hydrolyze longer akyl chains. Normally it shoud work.
