Acid-Catalyzed Etherification of Glycerol with <i>Tert</i>-Butanol: Reaction Monitoring through a Complete Identification of the Produced Alkyl Ethers

Higher <i>tert</i>-Butyl glycerol ethers (<i>t</i>BGEs) are interesting glycerol derivatives that can be produced from <i>tert</i>-butyl alcohol (TBA) and glycerol using an acid catalyst. Glycerol <i>tert</i>-butylation is a complex reaction that leads...
