Procedure

NaH (60% in mineral oil, 4.5 g, 0.12 mol) is washed twice with hexane (50 ml) and added with THF (75 ml), and the mixture was cooled to below 10° C. A solution of 2-tert-butyl-6-methylphenol 42 (16.4 g, 0.1 mol) in THF (60 ml) was then dropwise and slowly added, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes under the same conditions. The mixture was then dropwise added with MOMCl (9.1 ml, 0.12 mol), warmed to room temperature, and the reaction mixture was added with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (200 ml) and ethyl acetate (200 ml). The organic layer was separated, washed sequentially with water (200 ml), 1.5N NaOH (200 ml), water (100 ml), and saturated brine (200 ml), and dried. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give 20.5 g (98.6%) of 43 as colorless oil.
