General description

4-tert-Butyl-2,6-diformylphenol can be prepared from 4-tert-butylphenol and hexamethylenetetramine.[1][2]

Application

4-tert-Butyl-2,6-diformylphenol may be used to synthesize:
  • symmetrical macrocyclic Schiff′s base[3]
  • 2,6-bis(N-(4′-methyl-2′-hydroxyphenyl)iminomethyl)-4-tert-butylphenol[2]
  • isostructural C3-symmetrical triple stranded dinuclear lanthanide analogs[4]
  • 5-tert-butyl-2 hydroxy-isophthalaldehyde-bis-2-pyridinehydrazone via reaction with 2-hydrazinopyridine[5]
  • 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyisophthalaldehyde-bisphenylhydrazone via reaction with phenylhydrazine[5]
