A solution of 50 g. (0.152 mole) of 2,6-di(t-butyl)-4-(4'-nitrophenyl)phenol in 350 ml. of ethyl acetate is reduced with hydrogen gas at about 45 psig in a Paar apparatus using 10 percent palladium on charcoal as catalyst. The mixture is allowed to stand for about 16 hours, filtered, and the filtrate evaporated under vacuum. The residue is cooled, dissolved in ethanol and triturated with water. The resulting off-white solid is recrystallized from petroleum ether to provide 4-(4'-aminophenyl)-2,6-di(t-butyl)phenol, m.p. 113°-114.5° C.
