Abstract

This article presents the results on the application of the Co2+ – H2O2 catalytic system in the process of the liquid-phase oxidation of α-pinene with atmospheric oxygen. Cobalt (II) stearate was used as a catalyst air oxygen was used as an oxidizing agent, aqueous solutions of H2O2 with a concentration of 14, 18, 22, 35% were used as a co-oxidant and acetonitrile was used as a co-solvent. Conditions for the oxidation process: the amount of catalyst (fixed) – 0.4 wt. %, co-oxidant – 0.18, 0.70, 1.30 and 1.90 wt. % of the original α-pinene, co-solvent – 0.18 wt. %, air oxygen consumption – 10.0–13.3 cm3 /s; process temperature – from 60 to 100°С, duration – from 5 to 24 hours. It was found that the maximum content of terpene oxygen-containing compounds (TOC) (28.36 wt.%) was observed when using an 18% co-oxidant solution, the minimum (10.19 wt.%) – when using a 35% solution. The use of a co-solvent in the Co2+ – H2O2 catalytic system (18% solution) led to a 1.6 times decrease in TOC and when using the system Co2+ – H2O2 (35% solution) the content increased 2.6 times. With an increase in the temperature of the oxidation process using the catalytic system Co2+ – H2O2 (18% solution), the TOC content decreased by almost 5.0 wt. %. As a result, it is more expedient to oxidize α-pinene with atmospheric oxygen at a temperature of 70°C, an aqueous solution concentration and an amount of co-oxidant of 18% and 0.7 wt. % (from the initial α-pinene), respectively.
