Procedimiento

Into 101.5 g of N-methylformanilide was added dropwise with cooling 107 g of phosphoryl chloride over a period of 15 minutes. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 70 minutes. 67.5 g of ortho-t-butylphenol was added and stirred for about 45 minutes after which the mixture was heated to about 50°-60° C. and allowed to stir for 4.5 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into a volume of crushed ice and extracted with chloroform. The aqueous layer was separated and washed again with chloroform. The chloroform layers were combined and extracted with 2000 ml of a 5% potassium hydroxide solution. The aqueous potassium hydroxide layer was separated and added to 1000 ml of chloroform. The pH of the resulting two-phase mixture was adjusted to 3 with concentrated hydrochloric acid with stirring. The resultant layers were separated and the aqueous layer was again extracted with chloroform and dried over sodium sulfate overnight to give 18.1 g of the desired subtitled intermediate.
