Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of sodium hydride (2 g.) in dry dimethyl formamide (20 ml.) was added dropwise a solution of 4-chloromethyl-2, 6-di-tert-butylphenol (10 g.) in dimethyl formamide (40 ml.) at 25°-30° C. The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes, during which gas evolution ceased, so as to produce a solution of sodium 4-chloromethyl-2, 6-di-tert-butylphenoxide.
