Reaction Steps

To a 2-neck flask equipped with a reflux condenser, an argon inlet, a magnetic stirring bar and a glass stopper was introduced 3.79 g of 2,4-bis(4-tert-butylphenyl)-6-chloro-1,3,5-triazine of example 1. To it was added 30 mL of chlorobenzene, 1.21 g of resorcinol and 2 g of aluminum chloride at room temperature. The reaction mixture was heated at 85° C. for 6 hr. The heating was discontinued and the reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature. To it was then added 5% ice-cold aq. HCl, and the mixture concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was washed with water and dried to give 4.4 g of a product characterized to be 2,4-bis(4-tert-butylphenyl)-6-(2,4-dibydroxyphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine.
