I-P-Tert-Butylcatechol ngumkhiqizo obalulekile wamakhemikhali omuhle onobubanzi bezicelo. Ukuhlanganiswa kwayo kuvame ukususelwa kwindlela ye-alkylation ye-catechol. Ngokusho kocwaningo lwezincwadi, indlela ye-alkylation yokuhlanganiswa kwe-P-tert-Butylcatechol inesikhathi eside sokuphendula, isidingo samandla aphezulu, ukugcwala okukhulu kwemishini, nokungcoliswa kwemvelo okubangelwa inqubo yokuhlukanisa komkhiqizo. Lezi zici azihlangabezani nezidingo zokukhiqizwa kwezimboni kanye namakhemikhali aluhlaza. I-Hydroxylation of Phenols ene-hydrogen peroxide inezimo zokuphendula, izinto ezilula nezingabizi kakhulu, kanye nobungane obuphezulu bezemvelo, ezihlangabezana nezidingo zamakhemikhali aluhlaza. Phakathi kwazo, inqubo ye-hydroxylation ye-phenol ithuthukisiwe, futhi ukutadisha okungokweqiniso kwe-benzene hydroxylation reaction nakho kuvuthiwe impela. Kodwa-ke, i-Hydroxphetion eqondile ye-P-tert-butylphenol ene-hydrogen peroxide ukulungiselela i-p-tert-butlcatechol kubikwe ngokuvamile.
