Abstract
2,6‐Di‐tert‐butyl‐4‐iodophenol (1) does not react to the keto carbene 4 under strongly basic conditions and exclusion of oxygen, in contrast to a report in the literature. In the presence of oxygen, however, oxidation takes place. Reaction times and product pattern strongly depend on the concentration of O~2~. Besides biphenyl 2, diphenoquinone 3, and quinone 5, a new (oxocyclohexadienylidene)bisphenol 6 was isolated, and its molecular structure was determined by X‐ray crystallography. A radical mechanism is suggested for the formation of the above products from 1. The bisphenol 6 was also synthesized by thermolysis of the quinone diazide 11 in the presence of 3.
