Procedure

The relationship between the amount of ascorbic acid and the phenol yield was examined. Specifically, the pressure of the oxygen atmosphere was set at 4 atm (about 0.4 MPa), and the amount of ascorbic acid was changed within a range of 0 to 3 mmol. FIG. 1 shows the results. As apparent from FIG. 1, phenol was obtained at a high yield of 8% or more where the amount of ascorbic acid was at least 1 mmol.
