Makarouni, Dimitra; Kordulis, Christos; Dourtoglou, Vassilis published the artcile< Solvent-Driven Selectivity on the One-Step Catalytic Synthesis of Manoyl Oxide Based on a Novel and Sustainable ""Zeolite Catalyst-Solvent"" System>, Recommanded Product: (9Z,12Z)-Methyl octadeca-9,12-dienoate, the main research area is manoyl oxide preparation zeolite glyme catalyst cyclodehydration sclareol.
Presented is the application of a novel “”zeolite catalyst-solvent”” system for the sustainable one-step synthesis of the terpenoid manoyl oxide I, the potential precursor of forskolin and Ambrox. Manoyl oxide high-yield and large-scale production over a zeolite catalyst has been infeasible so far, while the proposed system results in 90% yields at 135°C and atm. pressure. A substrate-controlled methodol. is used to achieve selectivity. Solvent-driven catalysis was demonstrated, as the activation energy barrier decreases in the presence of appropriate solvents, being 62.7 and 93.46 kJmol-1 for a glyme-type solvent and dodecane, resp. Finally, catalyst acidity was found to be a key parameter for the process.
Catalysis Letters published new progress about Acidity (catalyst). 112-63-0 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, and the molecular formula is C19H34O2, Recommanded Product: (9Z,12Z)-Methyl octadeca-9,12-dienoate.
