摘要

Catalyst complex for catalysing esterification and transesterification reactions, comprising: i) a polymeric titanium glycolate of formula [Tio4 (CH2) 4] n in which n = 1 to 200; and ii) an alkali metal glycolate wherein the molar ratio of glycolate polymeric titanium glycolate respect to alkali metal is from about 1.25: 1 to about 100: 1, preferably about 1.25: 1 to about 10 :1.
