CYCLIZATION AND HYDROGENATION OF (+)-CITRONELLAL TO MENTHOLS OVER ZnBr<sub>2</sub> AND Ni CATALYSTS SUPPORTED ON γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>

CYCLIZATION AND HYDROGENATION OF (+)-CITRONELLAL TO MENTHOLS OVER ZnBr<sub>2</sub> AND Ni CATALYSTS SUPPORTED ON γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>

Two steps transformation of (+)-citronellal, cyclization and hydrogenation, on ZnBr2/γ-Al2O3 and Ni/γ-Al2O3 catalyst have been realized with the selectivity to cyclization products (isopulegols) was very high (yield up to ~92.58%) over ZnBr2/γ-Al2O3 under mild condition (90 °C and 1 atm nitrogen atm...
