Procedure

The general procedure of Example 1 is repeated, but using 382.9 g (1.416 mole) of octadecyl alcohol and 471.3 g (1.612 mole) of methyl 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate and employing 2 ounces (30.1 g) of PROPAK® and 2.5 ounces (69.4 g) of TiS catalyst. The system is brought to reflux at a pressure of 6-8 mm Hg and a temperature of between 190 and 202° C. After 2.5 hours, analysis of the contents of the reaction flask using Gas Chromatography shows a mixture of 51.7 wt % of the title compound, 26.2 wt % of methyl 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate and 20.8 wt % octadecyl alcohol.
