Formaldehyde → HCID 21521125, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

35.6 g of 5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione (0.2 mol), 41.2 g of 2,6-di-tert.-butylphenol (0.2 mol), 6,6 g of paraformaldehyde (0.22mol) and 0.5 g of hexamethylenetetramine in 130 ml of dimethylformamide and 13 ml of water are heated to 110°C for 7 hours, whilst stirring. After cooling, the reaction mixture is stirred into 500 ml of ice water and the product which precipitates is isolated. For purification, the reaction product is repeatedly digested with methanol, filtered off and dried. 3-(3,5-di-t-Butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione (stabiliser N0. 6), thus obtained, has a melting point of 166°C.
