Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain the title compound, useful as a photographic developer, an antioxidant for rubber and a polymerization inhibitor, stably, by the oxidation of p-isopropenylphenol, while decomposing the unreacted oxidizing agent with more than equimolar amount of SO2 gas or its aqueous solution.
CONSTITUTION: p-Isopropenylphenol is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide or an orgainc peroxide in a water-insoluble high b.p. polar solvent in the presence of a strong acid to give hydroquinone. The unreacted peroxide is decomposed after the reaction by adding more than equimolar amount of SO2 gas or its aqueous solution to the reaction mixture. The addition of SO2 or its aqueous solution in more than the equimolar amount is useful not only for removing the residual hydrogen peroxide but also for the reduction of the undecomposed hydroperoxide of p-isopropenylphenol and for inhibiting the oxidation of hydroquinone in the reaction mixture. However a large excess amount is not preferable.
