摘要
A simple green and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of (-)-isopulegol from (+)-citronellal in the presence of a solid supported catalyst (SiO2/ZnCl2), under solvent-free conditions and MW irradiation. It was also found that the same technology is applicable to the direct preparation of (-)-isopulegol from the essential oil of citronella (Cymbopogon nardus, growing in southern Brazil) in excellent yield.
