Participants

Reaction Steps

Example 11 was repeated except that the amount of the aniline hydrochloride was changed to 0.26 g (0.02 mole of catalyst per mole of the p-isopropenyl phenol monomeric unit). After the reaction, the reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography. It was found that 17.3 g (yield 76%) of 2-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4'-aminophenyl)-propane and 1.4 g of bisphenol A were formed.
