Procedure

Cumene hydroperoxide solution was pumped into the T-mixer with a flow of 0.250 ml/min. Hydrogen gas was fed into the T-mixer with a flow of 0.600 ml/min (1 bar). The T-mixer produced a taylor flow regime (liquid slugs). The product coming out of the reactor was collected. Samples were analysed with GC and HPLC. A conversion of 73% with >99% selectivity was obtained towards 2-phenyl-2-propanol.
