A process and a partial oxidation catalyst, which are useful for producing aromatic hydroxides such as phenol, which enable a partial oxidation reaction of aromatic compounds with sufficiently high yield and selectivity, and Providing a method for producing phenol using the same. An aromatic hydroxide is produced by irradiating a reaction solution containing an aromatic compound and water through a microreactor channel while irradiating with radiation. [Selection] Figure 2 |
