Procedure

Example 1 was repeated except that no water was present in the feed mixture fed to the reactor; the feed rate was 279 ml/hr, the reaction time was 5.5 hours. Analysis of the condensed organic layer by gas chromatography indicated that 5.04 pounds of isobutyrophenone were produced per 100 pounds of propiophenone.
