Paragraph 0057-0062, (2017/11/04)
A process for oxidizing methyl-substituted biphenyl compounds comprises contacting a mixture comprising isomers of at least one methyl-substituted biphenyl compound with a source of oxygen, wherein the mixture comprises at least 20 wt% of isomer(s) having a methyl group at a 2-position or a 3-position on at least one benzene ring and at least 50 wt% of isomer(s) having a methyl group at a 4-position on at least one benzene ring, wherein said percentages are based on the total weight of the at least one methylbiphenyl compound in the mixture.
