The initial product from the alkylation of resorcinol by tert-butyl alcohol in the presence of phosphoric or sulfuric acids is 4-tert-butylresorcinol, which is then converted into 4,6-disubstituted resorcinol.The optimum yields of 4,6-di-tert-alkylresorcinols are obtained with sulfuric acid as catalyst with the resorcinol, tertiary alcohol, and acid in molar ratios of 1:3:0.5.
