To a mixture of 200 ml of ethanol and 25.0 g (0.0736 mole) of 2,6-di(tertiary-butyl)-4-(4'-carboxyphenylimino)-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-one and 12 g (0.087 mole) of potassium carbonate warmed on a steam bath was added 1.0 g of palladium on charcoal. The mixture was reduced using a Paar apparatus for 2 hours. The mixture was diluted with 300 ml of water, filtered through celite, and the filtrate acidified with 6N hydrochloric acid. The yellow solid precipitate was collected by filtration to provide 4-[3,5-di(tertiary-butyl)-4-hydroxyanilino]benzoic acid, m.p. 241°-242° C.
