A quaternary ammonium and titanium codoped phosphotungstate (QA 0.5 Ti 0.5 H 0.5 PW) catalyst was prepared by the ion exchange method and used as a solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of n -butyl oleate. The catalyst was characterized by Fourier transform infrared, elemental analyzer, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, scanning electron microscopy, and Hammett indicator methods. QA 0.5 Ti 0.5 H 0.5 PW showed a higher catalytic activity than other phosphotungstate solid acid catalysts reported by literature, and the esterification rate reached 99% under optimized conditions. Moreover, QA 0.5 Ti 0.5 H 0.5 PW exhibited well reusability. An esterification rate of 90.1% was still obtained in the eighth run.
