Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: bis-phenols such as 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)propane and bis-(p-hydroxyphenyl)methane

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, nitrogen gas tube and reflux condenser was charged with 20.0 g of bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, 50.0 g of methylene chloride and 23.0 g of trimethylamine. To the flask was added 26.0 g of propargyl chloroformate dropwise over one hour and the mixture was allowed to react for 6 hours at 30° C. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was treated with methylene chloride-water mixture and the organic phase was separated followed by drying over magnesium sulfate overnight. After filtering, the filtrate was evaporated in a rotary evaporator. The resulting crystals were recrystallized to give the title compound melting at 60° C. at a yield of 93.6% of theory.

Procedure: Bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)methane (303 g; 1.5 moles), butyl glycidyl ether of epoxide content 7.45 equiv./kg (402.7 g; 6 equiv.), and benzyltrimethylammonium chloride (3 g) were stirred together and heated to 100° C., at which temperature an exothermic reaction commenced. The mixture was kept at 120° C. by moderate cooling and then, when the temperature of the mixture began to fall, heating was resumed, keeping the temperature at 120° C. for 1 hour and 150° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled, and its epoxide content was found to be 0.1 equiv./kg, indicating that the reaction was virtually complete. an exothermic reaction was kept at 120° C. by moderate cooling heating at 120° C. for 1 hour The mixture was cooled
