Mechanistic Insights into The Catalytic Esterification of Acetic Acid with Crude Glycerol

This thesis investigates the reaction mechanism of catalytic esterification of crude glycerol with acetic acid, by obtaining isomeric ester yields and conducting selectivity analyses. Computational quantum techniques are employed to analyse local reactivity, reaction complex stability, and overall a...
