Nanosized Silica-Supported 12-Tungstophosphoric Acid: A Highly Active and Stable Catalyst for the Alkylation of <i>p</i>-Cresol with <i>tert</i>-Butanol

12-Tungstophosphoric acid supported on nanosilica (TPA/SiO<sub>2</sub>) was employed as a catalyst for the tertiary butylation of <i>p</i>-cresol using tertiary butanol as an alkylating agent. The TPA/SiO<sub>2</sub> catalyst was synthesized using the wet impregna...
