Procedure: In the etherification stage, isobutene is reacted with alcohols, preferably with isobutanol, over an acidic catalyst, preferably over an acidic ion exchanger, to give ethers preferably isobutyl tert-butyl ether. According to one embodiment of the invention, the reaction is carried out in a three-stage reactor cascade, in which the reaction mixture flows through flooded fixed-bed catalysts from top to bottom. In the first reactor the inlet temperature is 0 to 60° C., preferably 10 to 50° C.; the outlet temperature is between 25 and 85° C., preferably between 35 and 75° C., and the pressure is 2 to 50 bar, preferably 3 to 20 bar. At a ratio of isobutanol to isobutene of from 0.8 to 2.0, preferably 1.0 to 1.5, the conversion is between 70 and 90%.

Procedure: In the etherification step, isobutene is reacted with alcohols, preferably with isobutanol, over an acid catalyst, preferably over an acid ion exchanger, to form ethers, preferably isobutyl tert-butyl ether. In one embodiment of the invention, the reaction is carried out in a three-stage reactor cascade in which the reaction mixture flows from the top downward through flooded fixed-bed catalysts. In the first reactor, the inlet temperature is from 0 to 60° C., preferably from 10 to 50° C.; the outlet temperature is from 25 to 85° C., preferably from 35 to 75° C., and the pressure is from 2 to 50 bar, preferably from 3 to 20 bar.
