In a 200-ml reaction kettle, 15 g of furfuryl alcohol was added to 85 g of ethanol, and the concentration of furfuryl alcohol was 15 wtpercent, followed by addition of 15 g of SnO2 and under stirring at 150 ° C for 20 hours in a yield of 85percent.The furfuryl ether was prepared in the same manner as in Example 7 except that the reaction temperature was set to 200 ° C in a yield of 95percent.General procedure: Catalytic experiments were performed in liquid phase in a stainless-steel stirred autoclave (500 mL) fitted with temperature control and a pressure gauge. Typically, 7.6 g of furfuryl alcohol were mixed with 3 g of catalyst and 300 mL of the corresponding alcohol used as reaction media (methanol, ethanol or 2-propanol).Catalytic tests were also carried out using α-angelica lactone, levulinic acid and iso-propyl levulinate as substrates. Decane was added as internal standard for analytical purposes in a concentration of 10 g L−1. After closing the reactor, stirring was fixed in 1000 rpm and a heating rate of 2.5C min−1 was established.Samples were taken periodically and the solution filtered into avial. Selected catalysts were tested in the temperature range of130–170C.
