95 °C

2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-dichlorohexane (183 g, 1 mol) was stirred with m-cresol (129.6 g, 1.2 mol) and aluminum chloride (4 g) was added in one portion. The mixture was heated at 95° C., with stirring for 1.5 h, after which ethylene dichloride (100 mL) was added and then the heating was continued. After 1 h the mixture was cooled to 20° C. and poured onto an ice-water/hydrochloric acid mixture (150 mL, 10% HCl solution). The mixture was then extracted with toluene (500 mL). The organic layer was separated, washed with brine (3×50 mL) and dried (Na2SO4). The solvent was removed by distillation and the residue was crystallized from a hexane/benzene solvent mixture to give 1-hydroxy-3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene (171 g), mp 133°-134° C., GLC purity 99%+. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ6.82 (1H, broad s), 6.35 (1H, d, J= 1.4 Hz), 4.72 (1H, s), 2.30 (3H, s), 1.71 (4H, m), 1.49 (6H, s), 1.34 (6H, s). 13C-NMR (CDCl3) δ154.2 (1C, s), 147.8 (1C, s), 135.7 (1C, s), 128.0 (1C, s), 120.2 (1C, d), 114.6 (1C, d), 37.9 (1C, t), 35.2 (1C, t), 34.6 (1C, s), 33.7 (1C, s), 32.0 (2C, q), 28.5 (2C, q), 20.8 (1C, q).
