Quinones and Quinone Methides. IX. Oxidation of 2,4-Bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-6-(4-methoxyphenylmethyl)phenol in Alcoholic Solvents: Monomeric Products and the Crystal Structure of an Unusual Dimer, 2-phenoxy>-1,5-bis(1,1-dim...

Oxidation of the title benzylphenol (1) with silver oxide in alcoholic media forms benzylic ethers of type (5) in high yields; e.g. oxidation in methanol yields 2,4-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-6-phenol (5a) together with an unusual dimer, the structure of which was shown by X-ray crystallographic analysis to be 2-phenoxy>-1,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-benzene (6).The benzylic ethers (5) are convenient intermediates for the syntheses of a variety of compounds related to (1).
