Abstract

pressure (10 psi), driven by Si-Pd interfacial synergism. The catalyst maintains >96% activity after five consecutive cycles, providing robust, industrially compatible strategy for DMO (dementholized oil) detoxification and precise monoterpenoid (pulegone) conversion to high value products.
