  2. Cumene process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumene_process

    This latter cumene converts into cumene radical and feeds back into subsequent chain formations of cumene hydroperoxides. A pressure of 5 atm is used to ensure that the unstable peroxide is kept in liquid state. Cumene hydroperoxide undergoes a rearrangement reaction in an acidic medium (the Hock rearrangement) to give phenol and acetone. In ...

  3. 2,4,6-Tri-tert-butylphenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,4,6-Tri-tert-butylphenol

    The oxidation of 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenol in the alkaline to the intensely blue-colored phenoxy radical can also occur with potassium ferricyanide. [1] [9] [6] The 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenoxy radical forms blue crystals on cooling to -70 °C which are stable at room temperature for several weeks and only gradually turn yellow. [9]

  4. Automotive paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_paint

    Robotic arm applying paint on car parts. Automotive paint is paint used on automobiles for both protective and decorative purposes. [1] [2] Water-based acrylic polyurethane enamel paint is currently the most widely used paint for reasons including reducing paint's environmental impact. Modern automobile paint is applied in several layers, with ...

  5. Bisphenol A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisphenol_A

    An excess of phenol is used to ensure full condensation and to limit the formation of byproducts, such as Dianin's compound. BPA is fairly cheap to produce, as the synthesis benefits from a high atom economy and large amounts of both starting materials are available from the cumene process . [ 7 ]

  6. 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 ...

  7. Cumene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumene

    Cumene (isopropylbenzene) is an organic compound that contains a benzene ring with an isopropyl substituent. It is a constituent of crude oil and refined fuels. It is a flammable colorless liquid that has a boiling point of 152 °C.

  8. Raschig–Hooker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raschig–Hooker_process

    [6] [7] Due to the two step nature, the Raschig–Hooker process can be used to produce either chlorobenzene or phenol. Reaction scheme of the 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 ...

  9. 2-Phenyl-2-propanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Phenyl-2-propanol

    2-Phenyl-2-propanol is the main metabolite of cumene, and therefore 2-phenyl-2-propanol can serve as a biomarker of cumene. [7] Hazards
