Thermal Isomerization of (+)‐cis‐ and (−)‐trans‐Pinane Leading to (−)‐β‐Citronellene and (+)‐Isocitronellene

Abstract: Catalyzed and uncatalyzed rearrangement reactions of terpenoids play a major role in laboratory and industrial-scale synthesis of fine chemicals. Herein, we present our results on the thermally induced isomerization of pinane (1). Investigation of the thermal behavior of (+)-cis- (1 a) and (-)-trans-pinane (1 b) in a flow-type reactor reveals significant differences in both reactivity and selectivity concerning the formation of (-)-beta-citronellene (2) and (+)-isocitronellene (3) as main products. Possible ex… Show more

“…Raise of pyrolysis temperature disfavors the formation of 4 expressed by the decreasing ratio of both acyclic products. This is in clear contrast to the isomerization of 1b, whereas the reaction routes affording 4 and 5 are at the same level over the whole temperature range [22,26]. Whereas the ratio of acyclic ring-opening products 6 + 7 to monocyclic 9 resulting Scheme 3. .…”

“…1a and 2 have a semi-chair or ''Y'' conformation, characterized by a planar C 3 -bridge. In case of 1b and 3 this C 3 -bridge is bent down leading to a less strained chair conformation [22,25,26]. In case of the latter configuration the carbon-carbon bond angles of the cyclohexane subunit are less distorted than for structures 1a and 2.…”

“…Whereas products with structures similar to 5 are known from various analogous compounds of 2 (b-citronellene, isocitronellene, linalool; Table 2), substituted products with cycloheptene skeleton (6) yield from the rearrangement of 2 only [11,23,28]. Studying the thermal rearrangement of various 1,6-dienes with hydrogen in aposition, the generation of cyclopentane-type products is known to occur [12][13][14]28,[32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41]. For instance, the thermal treatment of linalool yields 1,2-dimethyl-3-isopropenylcyclopentanol (Table 2) [28,38], and consecutive reactions of the acyclic main product from the pyrolysis of nopinone lead to the formation of 2-methyl-3-isopropenylcyclopentanone (Table 2) [12,13,35,36].…”
