Oxidation of α-Pinene with Hydrogen Peroxide Catalyzed by VO(OAc)₂

Abstract:

The oxidation of α-pinene with hydrogen peroxide, at 40°C and atmospheric pressure, using ethylene glycol dimethyl ether as solvent was carried out in the presence of VO(OAc)₂. The influence of solvent, reaction temperature and catalyst dosage on catalytic activity and product selectivity was studied. The major reaction products were verbenon (45.9% selectivity at 82.9% conversion). Formation of campholenic aldehyde, myrtenal, verbenol and epoxypinane was also observed.
