2,6-Di-t-butyl-4-(1,1-dialkyl-1-acetamide)-phenols were prepared from 2,6-d
i-t-butylphenol, chloroform, ketone and amine with sodium hydroxide. Their
phenoxy radicals were found to be more persistent than the well-known 2,4,6
-tri-t-butylphenoxy blue aroxyl radical. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Sci
