A starting material which was a mixture of 3,3',5,5'-tetra-t-butyl-4,4'-diphenoquinone (0.46 g), 2,6-di-t-butylphenol (0.34 g) and 3,3',5,5'-tetra-t-butyl-4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl (8.56 g) was subjected to reaction at 180° C. for 6 hours in a nitrogen gas atmosphere using 20 g of phenol as a solvent and 0.04 g of sulfuric acid as a catalyst. As a result, p,p'-biphenol was obtained in an amount of 3.35 g (yield, 79.9%).
