Abstract

Reactions of 4-alkyl-2,6-di-tert-butylphenols containing OH, SH, COOH, and COOMe groups in their para substituents with hydrogen chloride and hydrohalic acids were studied. One-step transformations of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(ω-hydroxyalkyl)phenols to the corresponding 4-(ω-halogenoalkyl)phenols, as well as of 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid and its esters to phloretic acid were proposed. 4-(3-Mercaptopropyl)phenol upon heating with conc. HBr undergoes condensation to 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propyl 4-(3-mercaptopropyl)phenyl sulfide as the main product.
