Procedure

A 5 liter separable flask equipped with a stirrer, reflux condenser and dropping funnel was fed with 1340 g (10 moles) of tert-butylbenzene and 3 ml of trifluoromethane sulfonate, and the contents were maintained at 50° C. to 60° C. While stirring, 104 g (1 mole) of styrene was then added dropwise for 2 hours and, after the addition, the stirring was continued for further 30 minutes. After the reaction, the catalyst was deactivated with water and, through neutralization, water rinsing, drying and distillation, 1-phenyl-1-(4'-tert-butylphenyl)ethane was obtained.
