Abstract
The catalytic activity of binary oxides of Al2O3-Eu2O3, Al2O3-Sm2O3, A l2O3-Nd2O3, Al2O3-Pr6O11, and Al2O3-Y2O3 were checked in the transform ations of alpha and beta-pinene oxides. Al2O3-Eu2O3 and Al2O3-Nd2O3 ar e found to be best catalysts for alpha-pinene oxide isomeriztion. Amon g the oxiranes, alpha-pinene oxide showed more activity mainly yieldin g 2,2,3-trimethyl cyclopentene-1-acetaldehyde. beta-pinene oxide produ ced trans-myrtanal and myrtanol.
