Procedure

A mixture of 15.9 g (75 mmol) of 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (97%), 12.2 g (82 mmol) of 50% aqueous glyoxylic acid, 40 mg (0.20 mmol) of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate and 25 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane is refluxed for 3.5 hours under nitrogen on a water separator. The reaction mixture is thereafter concentrated on a vacuum rotary evaporator. The residue is dissolved in 30 ml of n-octane and 125 g (75 mmol) of fluorene and 3 g of Fulcat 22B are added to the solution. This reaction mixture is refluxed for 3.5 hours under nitrogen on a water separator, the cooled and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated on a vacuum rotary evaporator. Chromatography of the residue on silica gel with the solvent system dichloromethane/hexane=2:1 and subsequent crystallisation of the pure fractions from methanol yields 5.28 g (17%) of 5,7-di-tert-butyl-3-(9H-fluoren-3-yl)-3H-benzofuran-2-one, m.p. 140-153° C. (compound (121), Table 1). The product may additionally contain minor amounts of other structural isomers in accordance with the substitution at the fluorene ring.
