Reactor and kinetic study advances for highly acidic solvolysis-mediated Friedel–Crafts reaction
This study presents a kinetic model that simulates the consumption of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), the formation of di-isopropyl benzoic acid (DIPBA) via a Friedel–Crafts alkylation reaction, and the generation of key impurities.
