HCID 7017(1,1'-Biphenyl)-2-ol

Procedure

The same procedure as in Example 1 is repeated except that pellets of γ-alumina-calcium oxide (85:15 in weight ratio, baked product at 600° C for 3 hours) are used in place of the γ-alumina pellets. The conversion of the cyclohexanone dimer is confirmed to be always 100% during the 2,000 hours' reaction. Table 1 gives the selectivity for o-phenylphenol measured.
