It is produced by ethylation of phenol using ethylene or ethanol in the presence of aluminium phenolate. [2]
In contrast, a secondary alcohol has a formula “–CHROH” and a tertiary alcohol has a formula “–CR 2 OH”, where “R” indicates a carbon-containing group. Examples of primary alcohols include ethanol and 1-butanol. Methanol is also generally regarded as a primary alcohol, [2] [3] including by the 1911 edition of the Encyclopædia ...
