Ring‐ 14 C‐labelled 4(3′‐, 6′‐, dimethyl‐3′‐,heptyl)‐phenol (NP), an isomer of paranonyl phenol was synthesized for use in aquatic toxicity and metabolism studies. A very efficient method involving alkylation of ring‐ 14 C‐labelled anisole and tertiary alkyl bromide (3‐bromo‐3,6‐dimethyl heptane) with AlCl 3 followed by cleavage of the resultant ether with BBr 3 was used giving a 24% yield ring labelled 14 C‐NP (specific activity: 16.205 MBq/mg and purity >95% by HPLC) after TLC separation.
