In connection with a program directed toward the systematic study of red-ox behaviour of phenols substituted with bulky alkyl groups we wish to describe in this communication the oxidation of 2-methoxy-4,6-di-t-butylphenol involving a one-electron transfer. The oxidation was carried out by
In a previous paper,' we reported a novel base-catalyzed rearrangement of R-peroxyquinol esters derived from 2,6-di-t-butylphenols leading to quinoxyacetic acid derivatives, where the peroxy bond cleaves even below -60 "C. Nature of the peroxy bond cleavage has been remained n
The initial yield of 3,5-di-t-butylsalicylic acid obtained via Kolbe-Schmitt carboxylation of the potassium salt of 2,4-di-t-butylphenol was less than 1% and was accompanied by a 65% yield of 2,2'-dihydroxy-3,3',5,5'- tetra-t-butylbiphenyl, a dimer of the 2,4-di-t-butylphenol formed by ortho couplin
