We have studied cation, salt, leaving group effects and influence of catalyst under phase transfer catalysis conditions using concomitant microwave irradiation during di-n-octylation of isosorbide. A small amount of solvent was necessary to control temperature and to provide good yields within a few minutes. The yields were dramatically improved when compared to conventional heating under the same conditions, in spite of similar profiles of raising in temperature. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
