Abstract

An isobutylbenzene (IBB) is produced from an isobutenylcyclohexane (IBCH) by contacting at elevated temperature the IBCH in the presence of a molecular oxygen-containing gas with a catalyst comprising a supported transition metal in the form of the elemental metal and/or a compound thereof, for example palladium supported on alumina.
