Abstract

Heteropoly acid efficiently catalyzed the addition reactions of water and carboxylic acid to phenylacetylene to form acetophenone at 60°C in the liquid phase. The higher catalytic activity of heteropoly acid compared with H₂SO₄ and HClO₄ is due to the cooperative action of heteropoly anion.
