Vorschrift

Methyl 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzoate (28.66 g, 108.4 mmol) was dissolved with stirring in 430 mL glacial acetic acid and the resulting mixture was treated drop wise with fuming nitric acid (90%, 179.26 mL). When the addition was complete, the resulting mixture was stirred for 2.5 h. The reaction mixture was poured into a 2.0 L of crushed ice and allowed to stand 30 min. Afterwards, 1.0 L of water was added and the ice water mixture was allowed to melt. The mixture was then filtered, washed with water and dried to provide the title compound (24.57 g, 89%).
