Procedure

10 g of 2,4-di-tert-butylallyloxybenzene are heated under nitrogen to 245° C. for 45 minutes. The yellow crude oil is taken up in diisopropyl ether. The ether phase is washed with 3 % sodium hydroxide and then with water. After drying and evaporation of the solvent, the oil obtained (7.6 g) is chromatographed on silica gel 60 (eluent: 80/20 heptane/CH2Cl2). A pale-yellow oil of 2-allyl-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol is obtained (5.4 g, yield =54 %).
