Sodium Carbonate → N-(3,5-di tert.butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)methacrylamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

N-(3,5-di tert.butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)methacrylamide was prepared by adding a solution of 11.5 grams of methacryloyl chloride in 50 milliliters of benzene to the solution of 2,6-di tert.butyl-4-aminophenol to which had been added 6 grams of sodium carbonate. The addition was accomplished in 30 minutes at 24° C. to 37° C. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour and the solid product was filtered off, washed thoroughly with 2% hydrochloric acid and dried. The yield was 10.0 grams of product which melted at 222° C. to 225° C.
