Iron based MIL-53 (Fe) was
synthesized by solvothermal and ionothermal methods. Then the synthesized
materials were sulfated to increase the acidic property. Characterization of
synthesized and sulfated materials were performed by FT-IR, BET, XRD and TGA
methods. The sulfated materials were used in esterification reaction of acetic
acid to test the catalytic activity. The effect of synthesis method on the
structure of MIL-53 (Fe) and also effects of temperature, time and sulfation of
samples on the conversion of acetic acid were studied. Also reusability of
sulfated samples was achieved by washing with pure water. In ionothermal
synthesis of iron based metal organic framework, deep eutectic solvent formed
by choline chloride and dimethyl urea was used as solvent.
