SIMULTANEOUS PREPARATION OF TERT-BUTYL ALCOHOL AND DI-TERT-BUTYL PEROXIDE FROM TERT-BUTYL HYDROPEROXIDE

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide a process for synthesizing tert-butyl alcohol and di-tert- butyl peroxide from tert-butyl hydroperoxide at a high conversion and a high selectivity. ;CONSTITUTION: There is provided a process for preparing tert-butyl alcohol and di-tert-butyl peroxide by contacting a tert-butyl hydroperoxide feedstock containing a tert-butyl hydroperoxide solution in tert-butyl alcohol with a hydroperoxide decomposition catalyst to thereby decompose tert-butyl hydroperoxide, characterized in that the hydroperoxide decomposition catalyst is the palladium supported on pelleted carbon.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1995,JPO
