Isopropylbenzene (1 ml), t-butyl nitrite (1 mmol), N-hydroxyphthalimide (0.2 mmol), and acetic acid (1 ml) were placed in a flask and were stirred at 80° C. in an atmosphere of argon gas (1 atm=0.101 MPa) for 20 hours. The resulting reaction mixture was analyzed to find that isopropenylbenzene, (1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)benzene, and (1-methyl-1-nitroethyl)benzene were formed in yields of 60%, 6%, and 7%, respectively.
