Abstract: A continuous paracetamol preparation method, including a nitration step or a nitrosation step to obtain p-nitrophenol or p-nitrosophenol respectively. P-nitrophenol or p-nitrosophenol can then be converted into paracetamol by hydrogenation, followed by acylation. This continuous paracetamol preparation method makes it possible to obtain paracetamol with a very good regioselectivity and excellent yields.
