A method for recovering resorcinol by thermally cracking high-boiling by-products contained in the acid-cleavage product of m-diisopropylbenzene dihydroperoxide, wherein the thermal cracking is effected in the presence of an aromatic ketone of the formula <IMAGE> wherein R1 represents a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, saturated alkyl groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, hydroxyl, acetyl and chlorine, R2 represents a member selected from the group consisting of saturated alkyl groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, cyclohexyl and phenyl, and n represents 1, 2 or 3, and when there are two or more R1 groups, they are identical or different.
