Dehydroisomerisation of α-Pinene and Limonene to p-Cymene over Silica-Supported ZnO in the Gas Phase

Silica-supported zinc oxide possessing acid and dehydrogenation functions is an efficient, noble-metal-free bifunctional catalyst for the environment-friendly synthesis of p-Cymene from renewable monoterpene feedstock by gas-phase dehydroisomerisation of α-pinene and limonene in a fixed-bed reactor....
