Mafu, Lubabalo published the artcileSolvent-free synthesis of novel para-menthane-3,8-diol ester derivatives from citronellal using a polymer-supported scandium triflate catalyst, HPLC of Formula: 42822-86-6, the main research area is citronellal para menthane diol ester derivative solvent free synthesis; polymer supported scandium triflate catalyst acylation; PS-Sc(OTf)3; acylation; diesters; para-menthane-3,8-diol.
The use of natural resources as a chem. feedstock for the synthesis of added-value products is gaining interest; as such we report an environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of para-menthane-3,8-diol from natural citronellal oil in 96% yield, under solvent free aqueous conditions. The acylation of para-menthane-3,8-diol with various acid anhydrides over polymer-supported scandium triflate (PS-Sc(OTf)3) catalyst was subsequently developed, where both hydroxy groups of para-menthane-3,8-diol could be simultaneously acylated under mild reaction conditions to form the corresponding diesters in good yields. The advantages of this method include a simple procedure from natural resources, using solvent-free reaction conditions.
