The Self-Disproportionation of Enantiomers (SDE) of α-Pinene via Evaporation off Silica Gel and Foam Fractionation—Validation of the Plausibility of SDE via Gas Chromatography (GC) for α-Pinene

α-Pinene is an intriguing monoterpene as it has been reported to undergo the self-disproportionation of enantiomers (SDE) phenomenon via gas chromatography (GC), the only compound to decisively demonstrate this. Examples of the SDE involving the gaseous phase—sublimation aside—are extremely rare. At...
