Participants

Reaction Steps

The raw material liquid for oxidation usually contains 20 to 60% by weight of m-diisopropylbenzene monohydroperoxide and 10 to 40% by weight of m-diisopropylbenzene. As usual reaction conditions, a temperature of 70 to 110° C., a pressure of 0 to 1 MPaG, a residence time of about 0.01 to 50 hours and the like are illustrated. As an apparatus used in the oxidation step, for example, a flowing type or batch type reaction vessel or reaction column can be listed. The oxidation reaction mixture obtained in the oxidation step usually contains 3 to 30% by weight of m-diisopropylbenzene dihydroperoxide and 20 to 60% by weight of m-diisopropylbenzene monohydroperoxide and 35% by weight or less of m-diisopropylbenzene.
