Cumyl Hydroperoxide is a peroxol that is cumene in which the alpha-hydrogen is replaced by a hydroperoxy group.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide has a role as an oxidising agent, an environmental contaminant and a Mycoplasma genitalium metabolite.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide derives from a hydride of a cumene.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide is an organic hydroperoxide intermediate in the cumene process for synthesizing phenol and acetone from benzene and propene.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide is typically used as an oxidizing agent.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide is the organic compound with the formula C6H5CMe2OOH (Me = CH3).
An oily liquid, Cumyl Hydroperoxide is classified as an organic hydroperoxide.
Products of decomposition of Cumyl Hydroperoxide are methylstyrene, acetophenone, and cumyl alcohol.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide's formula is C6H5C(CH3)2OOH.
Cumyl Hydroperoxide is produced by treatment of cumene with oxygen, an autoxidation.
At temperatures >100 °C, oxygen is passed through liquid cumene:
C6H5(CH3)2CH + O2 → C6H5(CH3)2COOH
Applications:
Cumyl Hydroperoxide is an intermediate in the cumene process for producing phenol and acetone from benzene and propene.

Cumyl Hydroperoxide is involved as an organic peroxide in the manufacturing of propylene oxide by the oxidation of propylene.
The oxidation by cumene hydroperoxide of propylene affords propylene oxide and the byproduct cumyl alcohol.
The reaction follows this stoichiometry:
CH3CHCH2 + C6H5(CH3)2COOH → CH3CHCH2O + C6H5(CH3)2COH
Dehydrating and hydrogenating cumyl alcohol recycles the cumene.
