反応手順

A three-neck, three-liter flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermometer and an addition funnel was charged with 80 grams of sodium hydroxide and 80 milliliters of water under a nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was stirred until dissolved and a mixture of 450 milliliters of benzene and 12.5 milliliters of 40 percent methanolic benzyl trimethyl ammonium hydroxide was added forming a benzene-water mixture. A mixture of 383 grams of 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxy benzyl chloride and 144 grams of isobutyraldehyde was prepared and placed in the addition funnel. The benzyl chloride/isobutyraldehyde mixture was added to the mixture of benzene and water while the flask contents were vigorously stirred at a temperature of 50° C. to 60° C. over a two-hour period. After addition was complete, the mixture was stirred for an additional one-half hour at room temperature. The mixture was hydrolyzed with dilute hydrochloric acid until the benzene layer turned clear yellow-orange color. The benzene layer was separated and the benzene evaporated to obtain 453 grams of 2,2-di-methyl-3-(3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propanal. The melting point of the product was between 72° C. and 74° C. after recrystallization from hexane.
