Abstract

Titanium-exchanged montmorillonite (Ti4+-mont) was found to act as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the etherification of a wide range of alcohols under mild reaction conditions. Ti4+-mont was reusable with retention of high efficiency and applicable to scale-up reaction conditions.
