SYNTHESIS OF MENTHOL FROM PULEGOL CATALYZED BY Ni/-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>

Synthesis of menthol using Ni/g-Al2O3 15% has been carried out started from pulegol as precursor. Structure elucidation of the products was achieved by GC-FID, GC-MS, FTIR, and 1H-NMR evidences. Isomers identification and their stability were determined by computational simulation. All experimental...
