FIELD: chemistry. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to obtaining n-cemene hydroperoxide, which can be used for combined production of cresol and acetone. In accordance with invention claimed is method of obtaining n-cymene hydroperoxide by liquid-phase oxidation of n-cymene with air oxygen at atmospheric pressure, temperature of the process 80-110C, for 1-3 hours, in presence of N-hydroxyphthalimide as catalyst in amount 1-5 wt %, until content of n-cymene hydroperoxyde is 25-28%. ^ EFFECT: catalyst excludes application of initiator and alkaline additives, which simplifies the process considerably; high rate of n-cymene oxidation is achieved. ^ 1 cl, 3 ex |
