 Production Method of Zinc P-Tert-Butylbenzoate 

Raw Material Preparation

Get p – test – butyl benzoic acid and zinc oxide (or zinc carbonate) ready. These are the primary starting materials. Please make sure they are of good quality and have the proper purity for the reaction.

Reaction Setup

Put p-test – butyl benzoic acid in a reaction vessel. Add an appropriate solvent, like toluene or xylene. These solvents help the reaction happen smoothly. Heat the mixture gently while stirring.

Zinc Compound Addition

Slowly add zinc oxide (or zinc carbonate) to the heated and stirred p-test – butyl benzoic acid solution. As it’s added, a chemical reaction starts. For example, if using zinc oxide, the reaction might be: 2 p – test – butyl benzoic acid + ZnO → (p – test – butyl benzoate)₂Zn + H₂O.

Reaction Completion and Separation

Keep heating and stirring until the reaction is done. You can tell by observing that the zinc compound has fully reacted. Then, cool the mixture. Solid zinc p – tert – butylbenzoate will form. Filter the mixture to separate the solid product from the liquid solvent.

Purification

Wash the filtered solid with a suitable solvent, like ethanol. This gets rid of any impurities left over from the reaction. Then, dry the purified zinc p-test-butyl benzoate in an oven at a low temperature.
