Abstract of the Disclosure A continuous process for the preparation of thymol by propylation of m-cresol with propylene and/or compounds which eliminate propylene, char- acterized in that the reaction is carried out over aluminium oxide catalysts in the presence of a nitrogen base. This process is distinguished by the fact that it yields, even in the presence of small amounts of water in the m- cresol, and independently of the starting material, that is to say independent- ly of whether m-cresol and propylene, or by-products arising in working up crude thymol, are employed, a crude thymol of constant composition and quality from which thymol in a purity of over 99.5% can be isolated without dif- ficulties, and the by-products of which can always be recycled to the reaction. In the process according to the invention, the activity of the catalyst also remains preserved for very long periods.
