A suspension of 25.9 g. (0.15 mole) of phenyl thio copper in 1 liter dry tetrahydrofuran is cooled to -20° C. and treated by the dropwise addition of 120 ml. t-butyl lithium (0.149 mole, 1.24 M in pentane) for about 20 minutes maintaining the temperature at -20° C. The resulting green solution is stirred at -20° C. for 5 minutes and then cooled to -72° C. and treated by the dropwise addition of 17.8 g. (0.107 mole) 3,4-dimethyl-benzoyl chloride in 50 ml. tetrahydrofuran for about 20 minutes. The mixture is then stirred at -22° C. for 11/2 hours and then treated with 100 ml. methanol and allowed to warm to room temperature and then hydrolyzed by the addition of 250 ml. saturated ammonium chloride. The resulting solids are filtered and washed with tetrahydrofuran. The filtrate is dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated and the oil distilled to give 3',4' -dimethylpivalophenone; (b.p. 73°-76° C. at 0.1 mm).
