Abstract

Abstract Perillyl acetate is a fragrance compound that was prepared by the reaction of β- pinenoxide with acetic anhydride and using acetic acid as an acid catalyst. Several selected catalysts were tested (homogenous: phosphoric acid, boric acid, acetic acid, and citric acid; heterogeneous: zeolite USY, SSA, and montmorillonite K-10) and the reaction conditions optimized for this reaction. The yield 78.7% of perillyl acetate was obtained. Mayol (4- ...
