Procedure
Into a 5-liter flask equipped with a reflux condenser, a thermometer, and a stirrer, 3,500 mL of toluene is weighed and put, and 770 g (6.2 mol) of 4-methoxyphenol and 670 g (6.2 mol) of p-cresol are added thereto, followed by stirring until homogeneous. 74 g (3.2 gram atom) of metallic sodium is introduced thereto at 50° C. or lower, followed by warming to 60° C. over 1 hour after the completion of the introduction, and then stirring at from 60° C. to 68° C. for 4 hours to obtain a solution of 4-methoxyphenol sodium salt and p-cresol sodium salt.
