Procedure
In a manner similar to the procedure of Example I, phenol is alkylated with an isopropanol alkylating agent in the presence of an amorphous aluminosilicate alkylation catalyst. Using reaction conditions approximately identical to those of the Example I alklation procedure, an alkylation product containing phenol and isopropylphenol is produced.
Workup
- customreaction conditions approximately identical to those of the Example I alklation procedure
