Methyl tert-butyl ether (I) is used as an anti-knock additive to motor fuels. This ether is usually obtained by the reaction of methanol (II) with Me/sub 2/C=CH/sub 2/ or Me/sub 3/COH (III) in the presence of catalysts. The authors find that passing a mixture consisting of 10 g(III), CO and H/sub 2/ in 0.5:1:2 mole ratio over a chromium-oxide powder sample obtained by the thermal decomposition of chromium gives (I) Me/sub 3/COH + CO + 2H/sub 2/ at 300 deg. Me/sub 3/COMe + H/sub 2/O.
