ALKYLPHENOLS - structure and production

Alkylphenols are a group of compounds derived from phenol, in which one or more hydrogen atoms in the aromatic ring are substituted with an alkyl group. In industry, compounds from this group are synthesised in the liquid phase in the presence of an ion-exchange resin serving as a catalyst. The reaction products are mainly the para isomer, which has an alkyl group in the para position, relative to the hydroxyl group, and small amounts of the ortho isomer. Side products also form during the synthesis reaction, mainly dialkylphenols and small amounts of lower and higher alkylphenols.
