A series of sterically hindered o-(branched alkoxy)-tert-butoxybenzenes was efficiently prepared in good yields owing to a new practical and simple preparation of o-tert-butoxyphenol starting from catechol and isobutene. Use of DMF di-tert-butyl acetal reagent instead of isobutene/H2SO 4 (cat.) for O-tert-butylation was very convenient in case of ortho bulky phenols affording the corresponding tert-butyl ethers in high yield and purity. This general route proved to be useful since no reliable access was available to o-di-t-BuO-substituted arenes. Application to the synthesis of congested phosphorus-based compounds is presented.

Alkylphenylethers, ortho-lithiated in good yields, are transformed according to scheme (1) to the triarylphosphines ArPPh2, Ar2PPh and Ar3P (Ar contains in all cases an ortho-alkoxy group) (Table 1.).Hydroquinonedialkylethers can be lithiated twice, forming the compounds 102 and 103.Table 2 summarizes some arylalkylethers (71 - 101) which were lithiated; table 7 presents 12 new arylalkylethers.The syntheses of triarylphosphines with one or two bulky groups (105 - 110) and of triarylphosphines with one or two 3,4-dialkoxyphenyl groups (111 - 114) are reported.The 31P-spectra of the compounds prepared are discussed with respect to the validity of the Tolman-rule.
