2,6-Di-tert-butylphenol → HCID 178425998, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

After 600 mg of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol (2.91 mmol) (Aldrich, 99%) were dissolved in 30 mL of diethylether, 1.28 mL of butyl lithium (2.5 M hexane solution) were slowly dropped thereonto at −31° C. After 1 hour, agitation was conducted at normal temperature for 6 hours. The resulting mixture was dissolved in diethylether, and a solution in which (trichloro)(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) (752 mg, 2.60 mmol) was dissolved in 10 mL of diethylether was slowly dropped thereonto at −30° C. After 1 hour, agitation was conducted at normal temperature for 6 hours. The solvent was removed from the resulting product, and the solvent-free product was dissolved in 10 mL of toluene and then recrystallized to produce 829 mg of red solid component.
