Y. Kubota et al., AN EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF 2,6-DI-TERT-BUTYLPHENYL ESTERS BY PALLADIUM-CATALYZED CARBONYLATION OF 4-BROMOBIPHENYL, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (13), 1994, pp. 1553-1554
2,6-Di-tert-butylphenyl biphenyl-4-carboxylates were synthesized in go
od yields by palladium-catalysed aryloxycarbonylation of 4-bromobiphen
yl with the alkali-metal 2,6-di-tert-butylphenoxides.
