Wood meal was dissolved under identical conditions in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C(4)mim]Cl) and homogeneously esterified with butyryl chloride and lauroyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine as a neutralizer. The effect of the molar ratio of reagent to the hydroxyl groups in wood on the properties of the esterified wood and the possible mechanism of the homogeneous esterification of wood in this reaction medium were studied. Furthermore, the physicochemical properties of the esterified wood were characterized by FTIR, solid-state CP/MAS (13)C NMR, TGA/DTG and SEM. The results confirmed that the homogeneous modifications were successfully processed and highly substituted wood esters could be obtained by reacting the dissolved wood in this homogeneous system.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007093	Imidazoles	Compounds containing 1,3-diazole, a five membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms separated by one of the carbons. Chemically reduced ones include IMIDAZOLINES and IMIDAZOLIDINES. Distinguish from 1,2-diazole (PYRAZOLES).
D008855	Microscopy, Electron, Scanning	Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D004951	Esterification	The process of converting an acid into an alkyl or aryl derivative. Most frequently the process consists of the reaction of an acid with an alcohol in the presence of a trace of mineral acid as catalyst or the reaction of an acyl chloride with an alcohol. Esterification can also be accomplished by enzymatic processes.	Esterifications
D001709	Biotechnology	Body of knowledge related to the use of organisms, cells or cell-derived constituents for the purpose of developing products which are technically, scientifically and clinically useful. Alteration of biologic function at the molecular level (i.e., GENETIC ENGINEERING) is a central focus; laboratory methods used include TRANSFECTION and CLONING technologies, sequence and structure analysis algorithms, computer databases, and gene and protein structure function analysis and prediction.
