In this paper, a method of preparation of ocimene is investigated, which is obtained from isomerization reaction of α-pinene. Two kinds of experimental apparatus are established for the investigation of the thermal isomerization reaction of α-pinene. The behavior of thermal isomerization reaction of α-pinene is respectively discussed in the gas phase and in the liquid phase. Under gas phase conditions, the conversion of α-pinene is 80% and the selectivity of ocimene is 30%-33%. Under liquid phase conditions, the conversion of α-pinene is 60% and the selectivity of ocimene is 50%-54%. According to the kinetic-molecular theory of ideal gases, two kinds of reaction models are proposed to visualize the reaction process. In addition, the mechanism and kinetics of thermal isomerization reaction of α-pinene are respectively discussed. The conclusion is that the gas phase reaction temperature is calculated to be 390-450 °C and the liquid phase reaction temperature is calculated to be 450-550°C. From a bond dissociation energy point of view, results support the hypothesis that the reaction involves biradical intermediates. Copyright

The most important information concerning thermal conversions of vegetable terpenes (α-pinene, β-pinene, turpentine, and cis-verbenol) in supercritical lower alcohols is systematized. The kinetics of selected reactions is reported and is compared with the kinetics of the same reactions in the gas and liquid phases. Thermodynamic calculations of the phase states and kinetic parameters are presented for a number of multicomponent multiphase systems containing terpenes and lower alcohols. The effect of the supercritical solvent pressure on the rate and selectivity of the selected reactions is reported.

, p. 62 - 67 (2008/09/16)
The influence of water as a cosolvent and catalyst of the isomerization of α-pinene in a supercritical aqueous-alcoholic (ethanol) solvent was studied experimentally. At T = 657 K and p = 230 atm, an increase in the concentration of water in the reaction mixture was found to increase the rate of the reaction and its selectivity with respect to the desired product, limonene. Water exhibited the properties of an acid catalyst because of its ionization. Mathematical experimental data processing was performed to evaluate and separate the contributions of the radical and ionic paths to the total rate of the reactions that occurred during the thermal isomerization of α-pinene.
