In a multi-step process, dixylylpropane is obtained inter alia via the hitherto unknown 1,2-dimethyl-4-((alpha)-chloroisopropyl)benzene, the readily accessible compounds o-xylene and propene being employed as starting compounds. The process yields the desired compound in high yield and isomer purity and is distinguished by a small amount of by-products. It is therefore particularly suitable for further processing without problems. The process involves the sequence of (a) Friedel-Crafts alkylation of ortho-xylene with propylene, (b) dehydrogenation of the isoproplyxlene into isopropenylxylene, (c) which is then hydrochlorinated into chloroisopropylxylene, (d) and then alkylated with a second ortho-xylene modecule to obtain the final product dixylylpropane.
