<p>The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of 4-cyclohexyl-2-methyl-2-butanol. The process involves the following steps: a) reaction of styrene with isopropanol at elevated temperature, giving 4-phenyl-2-methyl-2-butanol, and b) heterogeneous-catalytic hydrogenation of 4-phenyl-2-methyl-2-butanol over a catalyst suitable for the ring hydrogenation of aromatics.</p> |
