Acid catalysed alkylation of diphenyl ether with methanol over shape-selective zeolites

Includes bibliographical references (p. 177-185). === Selectivity in methylation of phenol over acidic catalysts depends primarily on temperature and the acidity of the catalyst. It is reported that direct methylation of phenol with methanol over weakly acidic catalysts yields predominantly o-cresol...
