A. Thangaraj et al., SOLVENT EFFECTS IN THE HYDROXYLATION OF PHENOL WITH H2O2 OVER TS-1, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. A: Inorganic, physical, theoretical & analytical, 33(3), 1994, pp. 255-258
A number of solvents with different polarities and mixtures of differe
nt solvents and water have been used in the hydroxylation of phenol wi
th H2O2 over TS-1. The conversion and product distribution are shown t
o be dependent on the solvent or solvent mixture used, The influence o
f temperature on the reaction has been studied in different solvents.
