Description The kinetics of one-step synthesis of methyl isobutyl ketone from acetone was studied in the presence of the bifunctional commercial ion exchange resin, Amberlyst CH28 over a wide range of temperature, total pressure and catalyst loading in a batch reactor. An activity-based kinetic model is proposed to predict the observed results, with the non-idealities of the liquid phase being described using the UNIQUAC method. Formation of mesityl oxide was found to govern the overall rate of reaction. Low reaction rates were observed at higher conversion, possibly due to a pseudo-equilibrium caused by reversible deactivation of the catalyst as a result of formation of water in the reaction system. Simultaneous removal of water during the course of the reaction may result in an enhanced conversion.
