Yield:92-88-6 99%
Reaction Conditions:
with methanesulfonic acid in isopar-G (hydrocarbons C10-C11);toluene at 150; for 2 h;
Steps:
7 Example 7
In a three-necked flask 50 grams [OF 2, 2', 6, 6'-TETRA-T-BUTYL-4, 4'-BIPHENOL (N] and 0.25 gm of [METHANESULFONIC] acid were mixed with a mixture of 80 ml Isopar-G (hydrocarbons [C10-C11)] and 20 ml of toluene. After 2 hours at [150°C,] 26 grams of isobutylene is collected in a dry ice trap and the reaction cooled to room temperature and was filtered. The biphenol was dried at [130°C,] giving 22.5 gram of 4, 4'-biphenol (99% yield) with purity >99% were collected.
