Reaction Steps
DE 29 52 719 likewise describes the iron chloride-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation of 2-methyl-3-phenylpropanol. In cyclohexane or dichloroethane solvent, a yield of 84-86% of 2-methyl-3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)propanol was obtained. The formation of the misomeric compound, (2-methyl-3-(3-tert-butylphenyl)propanol), was not demonstrated.
