Versuchsvorschrift
A mixture of 2,6-diisopropyl phenol (20 g, 0.11 mol), potassium carbonate (62 g, 0.45 mol), acetone (160 ml) and methyl iodide (28 ml, 0.45 mole) is refluxed for three days. The reaction mixture is filtered through celite, evaporated, dissolved in ether, washed twice with 1M sodium hydroxide, dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated to afford 15.1 g (0.08 mol, 70%) of 2,6-diisopropyl anisole as a slightly yellow oil.
