| Description |
The present work describes the novel application of sulfated zirconia (SZ) solid acid catalysts for the synthesis of nopol via Prins condensation of beta-pinene and paraformaldehyde SZ catalysts with different percentages of sulfur loadings have been synthesized and characterized using various physico-chemical techniques like PXRD FT-IR surface area analysis and NH(3)-TPD studies The influences of various reaction parameters such as sulfur loading reaction temperature molar ratio of reactants reaction time solvent effect and reusability of the catalyst have been investigated SZ catalyst synthesized by impregnation of 2N sulfuric acid solution over Zr(OH)(4) was found to be a highly selective catalyst for beta-pinene conversion (>99%) with similar to 99% selectivity to nopol The catalyst could be reused up to five cycles with minor loss in catalytic activity for beta-pinene conversion while the nopol selectivity remains unaffected (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
