Abstract

The reaction of aerobic liquid-phase oxidation of para-tert-butylcumene (PTBC) in the presence of N-hydroxyphthalimide has been studied. It has been found that the selectivity for the tertiary hydroperoxide of PTBC is over 95–98% up to a hydrocarbon conversion of 35–50%. The reasonability of the use of this reaction in the process of joint production of PTBC and acetone is shown. The mechanism of the process is discussed.
