Abstract

Nonaqueous alkylation of phenol with isopropyl alcohol and sec-butyl alcohol was carried out over 12-tungstosilicic acid supported onto hydrous zirconia and neutral alumina by varying different parameters such as mole ratio of alcohol to phenol, reaction temperature and amount of the catalyst. The reaction was also carried out by varying reaction time. The catalytic performance of the catalysts was correlated with the value of surface area and total acidity.
