Abstract
In this work, we report for the first time, the tungstic acid-catalyzed oxidation of terpene alcohols with hydrogen peroxide. This simple, solid, and commercially available catalyst efficiently promoted the conversion of borneol, geraniol and nerol to camphor and epoxide products, respectively. Effects of main reaction parameters, such as catalyst load, the molar ratio of oxidant to the substrate, time, and reaction temperature were investigated. Conversions and selectivity greater than 90% were achieved using 1.0 mol % of H2WO4 after 2 h of reaction at 90 °C. The activation energy was equal to 66 kJmol−1. We propose a reaction mechanism based on the experimental results. This solid catalyst was easily recovered and reused without loss of activity. As far as we know, it is the first time that tungstic acid was used as the catalyst in the oxidation reactions of terpene alcohols.
期刊介绍：
Early dissemination of important findings from Asia which may lead to new concepts in catalyst design is the main aim of this journal. Rapid, invited, short reviews and perspectives from academia and industry will constitute the major part of Catalysis Surveys from Asia . Surveys of recent progress and activities in catalytic science and technology and related areas in Asia will be covered regularly as well. We would appreciate critical comments from colleagues throughout the world about articles in Catalysis Surveys from Asia . If requested and thought appropriate, the comments will be included in the journal. We will be very happy if this journal stimulates global communication between scientists and engineers in the world of catalysis.
