The present invention relates to diarylphenoxyaluminum compounds which are obtainable by reacting a bis(diarylphenol) ligand of the formula (I) with an alkylaluminum compound and/or a complex aluminum hydride. The invention moreover relates to the use of such diarylphenoxyaluminum compounds as catalysts. Moreover, the invention relates to a method of producing isopulegol by cyclization of citronellal in the presence of diarylphenoxyaluminum compounds as catalysts. The invention also relates to a method of producing menthol by cyclization of citronellal in the presence of diarylphenoxyaluminum compounds as catalysts and subsequent hydrogenation.
