The conversion of nitrobenzene (NB) to p-aminophenol (PAP) takes place by way of an initial partial hydrogenation to produce phenylhydroxyl amine (PHA) which then undergoes an in situ acid-catalyzed rearrangement to PAP. This reaction is most commonly run using Pt/C catalysts in the presence of aqueous sulfuric acid and a surfactant to assist in dispersing the NB throughout the reaction medium. The yield of PAP is closely related to those reaction parameters which facilitate first the partial hydrogenation step and second the acid-promoted rearrangement before further hydrogenation to aniline can take place. The effect which a number of reaction parameters such as hydrogen pressure, reaction temperature, stirring rate, and the amounts of NB, the catalyst, and the surfactant present in the reaction mixture had on the rate and selectivity of the hydrogenation was examined. Optimization of these parameters led to the formation of PAP at a selectivity (PAP/AN) of 5.4 with a productivity of over 80,000 g PAP/g Pt/h.
