Catalytic Oxidation Processes for the Upgrading of Terpenes: State-of-the-Art and Future Trends

Terpenic olefins constitute a relevant platform of renewable molecules, which could be used as key intermediates for the perfumery, flavoring, and pharmaceutical industries. The upgrading of these cheap and available agro-resources through catalytic oxidation processes remains of great interest, lea...
