Procedure

A solution of 2-allyl-6-t-butylphenol (1.9 g) (see Example 3) in 100 ml MeOH is hydrogenated in a Parr system for 75 min at 25° C. (50 psi of H2). The mixture is then filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give 2-n-propyl-6-t-butylphenol (1.88 gram; 98% yield), which is used without further purification in the next step.

  1. filtrationThe mixture is then filtered
  2. concentrationconcentrated in vacuo
