The facile synthesis of a very hindered phenol by ligand coupling
Abstract
The reaction of 2, 4, 6-trimethoxyphenyl-lead triacetate (4) with 3,5-di-t-butylphenol (1) at room temperature afforded the very hindered phenol (5) in good (87%) yield; acetylation gave the acetate (7) which was fully characterised, including an X-ray determination.
