The cycloaddition reaction between isoamylene and a-methylstyrene yields indane compounds 1,1,2,3,3,-pentamethylindane and 3-ethyl-1,1,3-trimethylindane, which are intermediate cyclic products used in the synthesis of musk fragrances. This exothermic reaction is usually carried out industrially in large semibatch reactors. The microreactor, with enhanced heat and mass transfer characteristics, was used for the reaction with aqueous sulfuric acid as catalyst. The dependence of reactant conversion, product yield, and average reaction rates on catalyst concentration, temperature, velocity, residence time, and the molar ratio of the reactants in the feed was investigated. A similar study was also performed in the semibatch reactor to compare its performance with that of the microreactor. Higher product yields were obtained in the microreactor, and the average reaction rates in the microreactor were 3 orders of magnitude greater than those obtained in the semibatch reactor.
