Alkylation of phenol with tert-butanol in the liquid phase on mordenite was studied. The influence of many reaction parameters such as calcination temperature, reaction temperature, t-butanol/phenol molar ratio on catalytic properties was discussed. The main products were 2,4-di-t-butylphenol, o-t-butylphenol, p-t-butylphenol, the last of these was wanted product. In order to enhance the selectivity of p-t-butylphenol, optimum conditions were recommended at 500℃ calcination temperature, 140℃ reaction temperature, 1.0 molar ratio of reactants over mordenite. P-t-butylphenol was formed with 90% isomer selectivity at optimum conditions after 4hr reaction. On the basis of the behavior obtained in the cases mentioned, optimum conditions and catalytic properties for t-butylation of phenol were provided.
