Myrcene is a widely used fragrance and flavor raw material and intermediate.The progress of chemical synthesis of myrcene,such as from the esters of isopentanoids,monoterpenes allyl acetate and isoprene is reviewed.Especially,myrcene is synthesized by dimerization of isoprene due to its low cost,easy access and effective utilizationse of C5 resource.Finally,the future development for chemical synthesis of myrcene is proposed.The main research directions are to develop new catalysts,optimize technology and route of the reaction,and improve the yield and selectivity of myrcene.%月桂烯是一种用途广泛的香料香精原料和有机中间体。本文综述了其化学合成方法,具体为类异戊烷结构酯的"积木"法,单萜类烯丙基乙酸酯和异戊二烯法合成月桂烯。其中,利用异戊二烯二聚合成月桂烯,因其原料广泛、价廉易得,能有效利用C5资源,具有潜在的应用价值。提出了化学合成月桂烯未来的发展方向:研究和开发新型的催化剂、优化反应的工艺技术和路线、提高月桂烯的收率和选择性是未来工作的主要研究方向。
