To change the existing economic climate into a greener economy, it is essential to adapt the processing of forest bio-resources into biochemicals. Distilled tall oil, a byproduct of the Kraft process, mainly contains oleic and linoleic acid making it attractive for the synthesis of a variety of high-added value bio-based substances. Recently, much attention has been paid to the synthesis of multifunctional bio-based acrylates for polymer production. We report an approach for synthesising acrylates from tall oil using epoxidation, oxirane ring-opening with a polyfunctional polyol, and following hydroxyl group acrylation with acryloyl chloride. Intermediates and products were analyzed using NMR and MALDI-TOF
