Preparation and utilization of perillyl acetate

Perillyl acetate is a fragrance compound that was prepared by the reaction of β-pinenoxide with acetic anhydride and using acetic acid as an acid catalyst. Several selected catalysts were tested (homogenous: phosphoric acid, boric acid, acetic acid, and citric acid; heterogeneous: zeolite USY, SSA, and montmorillonite K-10) and the reaction conditions optimized for this reaction. The yield 78.7 % of perillyl acetate was obtained. Mayol (4- isopropylcyclohexylmethanol), a valuable fragrance compound, was further obtained by a two-step synthesis from perillyl acetate. Firstly, perillyl acetate was saponified to perillyl alcohol. The yield of alcohol was 94.4 %. The last step of the entire preparation was the hydrogenation of perillyl alcohol to Mayol. The yield of the desired product of this reaction was 94.6 %. Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012.

LILIAN SURROGATE

Due to toxicological concerns, it may be desirable to replace the fragrance compound lilial with less problematic compounds without losing the creative power and quality regarding perfumes. The present invention addresses this need by using selected oxazolidines described herein.

PROCESS FOR PREPARING 4-ISOPROPYLCYCLOHEXYLMETHANOL

The present invention relates to a process for preparing 4-isopropylcyclohexylmethanol (IPCHM) from para-cymene. The process for preparing 4-isopropylcyclohexylmethanol (IPCHM) comprises an electrochemical process for preparing a mixture of 4-isopropylbenzaldehyde dimethyl acetal and 4-(1-alkoxy-1-methylethyl)benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal, and intermediates passed through in the process, a hydrolysis step to form the corresponding benzaldehydes and a hydrogenation of this mixture to form 4-isopropylcyclohexylmethanol (IPCHM).

CONTINUOUS METHOD FOR PRODUCING SUBSTITUTED CYCLOHEXYLMETHANOLS

The present invention relates to a continuous process for preparing para-alkyl-substituted cyclohexylmethanols, especially 4-isopropylcyclohexylmethanol, by catalytically hydrogenating the corresponding aldehydes or ketones in the presence of hydrogen and in the presence of a catalyst which comprises, as an active metal, ruthenium applied to a support, the support comprising Al2O3 and/or SiO2, and the catalyst being used in the form of a fixed bed catalyst in a hydrogenation reactor or in a plurality of hydrogenation reactors connected in series.
