Abstract
The yield of phenol increases abruptly above 170°C in the cupric sulfate solutions. When the solutions contain copper metal pieces, phenol is produced, even below 160°C, regardless of irradiation or non-irradiation. On the other hand, scarcely any phenol is produced in the cupric-ferric sulfate solution, even at 180°C. These facts are to be attributed to the fast rate of cuprous oxidation by oxygen.Keywords
