| | Calcium methoxide Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Calcium methoxide can be used as a catalyst in the transesterification of oil to produce biodiesel. | | General Description | Calcium methoxide is an alkaline earth metal compound that can be used as a calcium catalyst. It is a solid base catalyst that shows excellent catalytic activity and stability. It can be synthesized by reacting calcined calcium carbonate with methanol reflux under a nitrogen flow. | | reaction suitability | core: calcium | | Synthesis | Calcium Methanol Synthesis Reaction: In a sealed reactor, methanol is added dropwise to calcium carbide, in which the molar ratio of calcium carbide to methanol is 1:2-6, to produce calcium methanol.
