From Citrus to Cymene: Understanding the Hydrothermal Conversion of Limonene
ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.When life gives you limonene… Hydrothermal conversion and pyrolysis of limonene give two distinct sets of products, arising from differing reaction cascades. While p‐cymene dominates in the presence of water, indicative of an isomerisation/aromatisation pathway, pyrolysis favours cracking and loss of carbon affording an m‐xylene rich aromatic mix.
