Abstract

Quinone methide derivatives such as 4-benzylidene-2,6-di-tert-butyl-cyclohexa-2,5 dienone are used to inhibit styrene monomer polymerization in the dehydrogenator portion of a styrene monomer production system. The inhibitor contacts the dehydrogenation effluent and does not partition in substantial amounts to the aqueous phase that is separated in the phase separator.
