Synthesis of Acid Anhydrides. Acid chlorides react with carboxylic acids to form anhydrides as shown in the reaction below. Some cyclic anhydrides can be synthesized from the corresponding dicarboxylic acid with gentle heating. The example below shows the reaction of glutaric acid to form a cyclic anhydride.

One of the first of these projects aimed at innovating homogeneous carbonylation catalysis, which eventually led to this new discovery of the new nickel system for anhydride synthesis. Two patents have been filed on this process so far.
Acid Anhydrides- Definition and Meaning of Acid anhydride, Synthesis ...
Synthesis of Acid Anhydride. An organic acid anhydride is synthesized by the heating of two carboxylic acids at a high temperature of nearly 800℃. In this process, one water molecule is removed from the reaction. It can be synthesized by the reaction of a carboxylic acid with P 2 O 5.
