  2. Raschig–Hooker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raschig–Hooker_process

    The Raschig–Hooker process's ability to make phenol makes it comparable to other methods, such as the Dow and Bayer process, which also converts benzene into phenol. In fact, the ability to recycle the hydrogen chloride made the Raschig–Hooker process preferable to the Dow and Bayer process, which requires its sodium chloride product to be ...

  3. Phenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenol

    Phenol is also a versatile precursor to a large collection of drugs, most notably aspirin but also many herbicides and pharmaceutical drugs. Phenol is a component in liquid–liquid phenol–chloroform extraction technique used in molecular biology for obtaining nucleic acids from tissues or cell culture samples.

  4. Dow process (phenol) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dow_process_(phenol)

    When 1-[14 C]-1-chlorobenzene was subjected to aqueous NaOH at 395 °C, ipso substitution product 1-[14 C]-phenol was formed in 54% yield, while cine substitution product 2-[14 C]-phenol was formed in 43% yield, indicating that an elimination-addition (benzyne) mechanism is predominant, with perhaps a small amount of product from addition ...

  5. Cumene process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumene_process

    The cumene process (cumene-phenol process, Hock process) is an industrial process for synthesizing phenol and acetone from benzene and propylene. The term stems from cumene (isopropyl benzene), the intermediate material during the process. It was invented by R. Ūdris and P. Sergeyev in 1942 (USSR), [1] and independently by Heinrich Hock in ...

  6. Food loss and waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_loss_and_waste

    Prevention of food waste infers all actions that reduce food production and ultimately prevent food from being produced in vain, such as food donations or re-processing into new food products. Valorisation on the other hand comprise actions that recover the materials, nutrients or energy in food waste, for instance by producing animal feed ...

  7. Phenol oxidation with hypervalent iodine reagents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenol_oxidation_with...

    Substrates containing two phenols (or an aniline and a phenol; see equation (8) below for a related example), undergo oxidative coupling in the presence of hypervalent iodine(III) reagents. Coupling of both the ortho and para positions is possible; however, the use of bulky silyl-protected phenols provides complete selectivity for para coupling ...

  8. Advanced oxidation process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_oxidation_process

    The mechanism of ·OH production (Part 1) highly depends on the sort of AOP technique that is used. For example, ozonation, UV/H 2 O 2, photocatalytic oxidation and Fenton's oxidation rely on different mechanisms of ·OH generation: UV/H 2 O 2: [6] [12] [13] H 2 O 2 + UV → 2·OH (homolytic bond cleavage of the O-O bond of H 2 O 2 leads to ...

  9. Phenol extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenol_extraction

    Phenol is a polar substance with a higher density than water (1.07 g/cm 3 [2] compared to water's 1.00 g/cm 3). When suspended in a water-phenol solution, denatured proteins and unwanted cell components dissolve in the phenol, while polar nucleic acids dissolve in the water phase. [3]
