Abstract
A process for the production of a 2,6-dialkylphenol in high yield wherein the alkyl groups are secondary or tertiary with a reduced overall production of 4-alkylphenol by-products by the aluminum phenoxide catalyzed pressure reaction of isobutylene with phenol and a mixture of 2,4-dialkylphenol and 2,4,6-trialkylphenol which may be obtained, in a cyclic process, as a bottom stream from the distillation of the reaction mixture to obtain the 2,6-dialkylphenol product.
