Non-catalytic and selective alkylation of phenol with propan-2-ol in supercritical water

Abstract

Phenol can be alkylated with propan-2-ol without catalyst in supercritical water at 673 K with mainly ortho substituted alkylphenols being obtained and alkylation reaction rate increasing with increasing water density.
