Patent ID: 8889926

Claim:
A method for the synthesis of 1,3-di(chloropropyl)-5-tert-butyl benzene comprising: conducting Friedl-Crafts alkylation of 1,3-diisopropylbenzene by tert-butyl chloride in the presence of an alkylation catalyst to obtain 1-tert-butyl-3,5-diisopropylbenzene; peroxidizing the 1-tert-butyl-3,5-diisopropylbenzene by gaseous oxygen in the presence of a peroxidation catalyst in a basic solution to obtain 1,3-di(peroxypropyl)-5-tert-butylbenzene; reducing the 1,3-di(peroxypropyl)-5-tert-butylbenzene with a reducing agent to 1,3-di(hydroxypropyl)-5-tert-butylbenzene; and chlorinating the 1,3-di(hydroxpropyl)-5-tert-butylbenzene to obtain 1,3-di(chloropropyl)-5-tert-butyl benzene.
