ABSTRACT:
Cyclic terpene compounds selected from the class consisting of pinane, alpha-pinene, beta-pinene and mixtures thereof are converted into their corresponding open-chain isomers-e.g., dihydromyrcene, allo-ocimene and myrcene-by thermal isomerization at a temperature of at least 300.degree. C in the presence of a solid material comprising a metal or metal oxide selected from the class consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, transition metals and mixtures thereof supported on a carrier having a specific surface area in the range of about 0.01 to about 20 m.sup.2 /g.
