Abstract
The aim of the work was to study the isomerization of limonene on zeolite-containing biporous acid catalysts based on kaolin (from Ukraine). Results of this study show that at 160°C, the maximum isomer yield was 60–65% with an 80–90% conversion. The studied samples do not have a significant accumulation of carbonaceous deposits because limonene has high solubility, which helps to remove intermediate products of transformation from the surface of the samples.

Abstract
Silica-supported zinc oxide possessing acid and dehydrogenation functions is an efficient, noble-metal-free bifunctional catalyst for the environment-friendly synthesis of p-Cymene from renewable monoterpene feedstock by gas-phase dehydroisomerisation of α-pinene and limonene in a fixed-bed reactor. The reaction involves acid-catalysed terpene isomerisation to p-menthadienes followed by dehydrogenation to form p-Cymene. Dehydroisomerisation of α-pinene produces p-Cymene with 90% yield at 100% conversion at 370 °C and WHSV = 0.01–0.020 h−1. The reaction with limonene gives a 100% p-Cymene yield at 325 °C and WHSV = 0.080 h−1. ZnO/SiO2 catalyst shows stable performance for over 70 h without co-feeding hydrogen.

Abstract
The natural terpene limonene is widely found in nature. The (R)-limonene (the most abundant enantiomer) is present in the essential oils of lemon, orange, and other citrus fruits, while the (S)-limonene is found in peppermint and the racemate in turpentine oil. Limonene is a low-cost, low toxicity biodegradable terpene present in agricultural wastes derived from citrus peels. The products obtained from the conversion of limonene are valuable compounds widely used as additives for food, cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals. The conversion of limonene to produce different products has been the subject of intense research, mainly with the objective to improve catalytic systems. This review focused on the application of heterogeneous catalysts in the catalytic conversion of limonene.

Abstract
Abstract
The presented work describes the autoxidation of alpha-pinene for the first time using a catalyst based on activated carbon from biomass with introduced Fe. The raw material for the preparation of the carbon material was waste orange peel, which was activated with a KOH solution. The following instrumental methods characterized the obtained catalyst (Fe/O_AC):N2 adsorption at 77 K, XRD, UV, SEM, TEM, X-ray microanalysis, and catalytic studies. It was shown that the Fe/O_AC catalyst was very active in the autoxidation of alpha-pinene. The main reaction products were: alpha-pinene oxide, verbenone, verbenol, and campholenic aldehyde.

Abstract
Limonene is a renewable cyclic monoterpene that is easily obtainable from citrus peel and it is commonly used as a nutraceutical ingredient, antibacterial, biopesticide and green extraction solvent as well as additive in healthcare, fragrance and food and beverage industries for its characteristic lemon-like smell. Indeed, the lack of toxicity makes limonene a promising bio-alternative for the development of a wide range of effective products in modern biorefineries. As a consequence, industrial demand largely exceeds supply by now. Limonene can be also used as starting substrate for the preparation of building block chemicals, including p-cymene that is an important intermediate in several industrial catalytic processes. In this contribution, after reviewing recent advances in the recovery of limonene from citrus peel and residues with particular attention to benign-by-design extractive processes, we focus on the latest results in its dehydrogenation to p-cymene via heterogeneous catalysis. Indeed, the latest reports evidence that the selective production of p-cymene still remains a scientific and technological challenge since, in order to drive the isomerization and dehydrogenation of limonene, an optimal balance between the catalyst nature/content and the reaction conditions is needed.

Abstract
This work presents studies on the activity of the Ti-SBA-16 (SBA—Santa Barbara Amorphous) catalyst in the isomerization of limonene and S-carvone. The Ti-SBA-16 catalyst was synthesized by a two-step method: first, the SBA-16 material was produced, and then it was impregnated with the titanium source. The Ti-SBA-16 catalyst was subjected to detailed characterizations by means of instrumental methods: XRD (X-ray Diffraction), UV-Vis (Ultraviolet–Visible) spectroscopy, FTIR (Fourier-Transform Infrared) spectroscopy, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) with EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray) spectroscopy, and EDXRF (Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence). Both limonene and S-carvone underwent isomerization over the Ti-SBA-16 catalyst. In the isomerization of limonene, the main product was terpinolene, and its highest yield amounted to 39 mol% after 300 min at 170 °C with a catalyst content of 15 wt%. Under these conditions, the conversion of limonene reached 78 mol%. In contrast, the highest yield of carvacrol (65 mol%) was obtained with the catalyst content of 15 wt%, at 200 °C, and with the conversion of S-carvone reaching 79 mol%.

Abstract
Abstract
This work describes the isomerization of S-carvone using a natural zeolite—clinoptilolite as the catalyst. The isomerization of S-carvone was carried out at the catalyst content in the reaction mixture from 5 to 15 wt%, in a temperature range of 190–210 °C and for the reaction time from 60 to 300 min. The main product of the isomerization of S-carvone was aromatic alcohol with many practical applications—carvacrol. The use of the most favorable reaction conditions (the reaction time of 3 h, the temperature of 210 °C and the catalyst content 15 wt%) allowed to obtain this compound with high yield amounted to about 90 mol%. The S-carvone isomerization is an example of environmentally friendly process because it does not use any solvents, S-carvone can be separated from cheap cumin waste (renewable biomass) and a cheap zeolite of natural origin—clinoptilolite can be is used as the catalyst.

Abstract
Abstract
In the current study, the isomerization of geraniol over a natural sepiolite as a catalyst was investigated and optimized. Prior to application in the isomerization process, the physical and chemical properties of sepiolite were characterized using a battery of instrumental techniques, including XRD, nitrogen adsorption at 77 K, SEM, EDXRF, UV–Vis and FT-IR. Results indicated that geraniol isomerization is very complicated due to the large number of reactions taking place. The catalytic studies showed that the main reaction products were β-pinene, ocimenes, linalool, nerol, citrals, thunbergol and isocembrol; all chemical products with commercial applications. The quantity of each of these products depended on the temperature, catalyst content and reaction time employed in the isomerization process. During the current study, these parameters were varied in a step-wise approach over the ranges 80–150 °C (temperature), 5–15 wt% catalyst content and reaction time of 15–1440 min. As linalool is one of the most commercially important reaction products, the geraniol isomerization method was studied to identify conditions producing the highest selectivity for this compound. The most beneficial conditions for geraniol conversion and linalool formation were established as a temperature of 120 °C, catalyst content of 10 wt% and a reaction time of 3 h.
