Rubbing the right way: The direct etherification of glycerol with long‐chain alcohols typically suffers from poor contact between the reaction phases. A dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid catalyst enables a better contact between the glycerol and alcohol phases, enhancing the yield of monoalkyl glyceryl ethers and offering a direct route for the synthesis of these surfactants.
