Micro and mesoporous materials based on zeolite Y for the florol synthesis via the prins cyclization of isoprenol

Several parents and Sn-modified microporous and mesoporous catalysts were investigated in Prins cyclization of isoprenol with isovaleraldehyde for the production of the desired cis isomer of pyranol, Florol ® using dimethylcarbonate as a solvent in the temperature range of 30–60 °C. The highest sele...
