AB - The results of studies related to the development of a highly selective three-stage method for the synthesis of p-tert-butylphenol along with acetone are presented. The alkylation of isopropylbenzene with tert-butyl alcohol in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid makes it possible to obtain only the para-isomer of tert-butylcumene. For the liquid-phase aerobic oxidation of p-tert-butylcumene in the presence of the phthalimide catalysts, the hydrocarbon conversion reaches 45% with a selectivity of hydroperoxide formation of 90–95%. The process of acid decomposition of p-tert-butylcumene hydroperoxide to p-tert-butylphenol and acetone was studied. Conditions providing the production of p-tert-butylphenol in a yield of 90% were found.
