The invention relates to an isoterpinene 4, 8-
epoxide synthesis method, which comprises: blending an isoterpinene
raw material, a catalyst, a catalyst auxiliary agent and a
solvent, stirring to form a mixture solution, carrying out a mixing reaction on the mixture solution and an
oxidizing agent in a reactor, purifying, and
drying to obtain the isoterpinene 4, 8-
epoxide. And 2, 8-
epoxide. According to the synthesis method of the isoterpinene 4, 8-epoxide, an adopted
reaction system is moderate in oxidability and mild in reaction condition, double bonds at the fourth position can be directionally oxidized, high oxidation selectivity is achieved, and finally the highest selectivity of the isoterpinene 4, 8-epoxide can reach 95% or above; meanwhile, the method overcomes the defect that the existence of water in a catalytic
system in the prior art easily causes ring-opening
hydrolysis of epoxidation reaction, accelerates the epoxidation reaction process, shortens the reaction time, and increases the yield of the product, and the highest yield can reach 88% or above.
