Answer:

.It is easily synthesized from the reaction of propylene with sulfuric acid, followed by hydrolysis. Isopropyl alcohol (2-propanol) is made by indirect hydration of propylene (CH2CHCH3).… In some cases the hydration of propylene is carried out in one step, using water and a catalyst at high pressure.

Hope it'll help!
