Wikipedia definition
1. Cumene processThe Cumene process (Cumene-phenol process, Hock process) is an industrial process for developing phenol and acetone from benzene and propylene. The term stems from cumene (isopropyl benzene), the intermediate material during the process. It was invented by Heinrich Hock in 1944 and independently by R. Ūdris and P. Sergeyev in 1942 (USSR). This process converts two relatively cheap starting materials, benzene and propylene, into two more valuable ones, phenol and acetone.
