Reaction Steps

To a solution of 36.6 g (0.34 mol) of crude 2-nitro-propan-1-ol [prepared according to Example 1a]in 200 ml of toluene in a pressure vessel is added 2 g of sodium bisulfate [NaHSO4]. Through the closed autoclave is added at room temperature 48 g (0.85 mol) of isobutene. The reaction mixture is maintained at 60° C. for 8 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, diluted with toluene and filtered to give a crude solution of 1-tert-butoxy-2-nitro-propane in toluene.
