Or.... I think auto catalyst...
The reaction can be accelerated by acid catalysis and the equilibrium can be shifted to the right by removal of water. It is also prepared in industry using the Tishchenko reaction, by combining two equivalents of acetaldehyde in the presence of an alkoxide catalyst:
2 CH3CHO → CH3COOCH2CH3
Silicotungstic acid is used to manufacture ethyl acetate by the alkylation of acetic acid by ethylene:[5]
C2H4 + CH3CO2H → CH3CO2C2H5
