Answer
![3,4-Bis{[dimethyl(2-methyl-2-propanyl)silyl]oxy}benzaldehyde](https://static.chemtradehub.com/structs/998/99815-16-4-272c.webp "3,4-Bis{[dimethyl(2-methyl-2-propanyl)silyl]oxy}benzaldehyde")
3,4-Bis{[dimethyl(2-methyl-2-propanyl)silyl]oxy}benzaldehyde is typically synthesized through a silylation reaction of benzaldehyde with dimethyl(2-methyl-2-propanyl)silanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of an acid such as hydrochloric acid. The reaction is carried out under anhydrous conditions to maximize yield and selectivity. The product is isolated by recrystallization or distillation.
