Procedure

The reaction was similarly carried out as Example 10 except that into a mixture of 59.5 g of p-(α-methylbenzyl)phenol, 25 g of phosphoric acid and 20 g of acetic acid was poured 31 g of styrene to give only 2,4-di-(α-methylbenzyl)phenol, but scarcely to detect other tert-butylated compounds.
