Abstract
Prins intramolecular cyclization of citronellal giving desired product isopulegol was performed using different modified zeolites BETA (Si/Al ratio 25, 38 and 75 modified with iron or zinc of 1, 5 or 10 wt.% by wet impregnation method). In case of materials BETA Si/Al 38 and 75 led material impregnation with metal to increase of material catalytic activity (accompanied with increase of amount of weak acid sites detected using temperature programmed desorption). Material BETA 38 with loading 1 wt.% of Fe provided 97% citronellal conversion and 94% selectivity of isopulegol formation (90 °C, toluene, 24 h).
