(E)-Propenylbenzene flavors and fragrances can be made and isolated in high yield and selectivity by using bifunctional catalyst 1, and the heterogenized analogues. Multigram-scale reactions can be performed neat and the products isolated either by distillation, using homogeneous catalyst 1 (0.1–0.5 mol%, r.t., 10–45 min), or by decantation from heterogeneous catalysts PS-1 or PSL-1 (0.5 mol%, 70 °C, 24 h; catalyst separation and re-use shown for 3–4 cycles; 10 cycles using distilled eugenol feedstock). Both purified starting materials and essential oil feedstocks could be used. Z Isomers were present at very low levels (from 0.4% to less than 0.1%) in the products. |
