Embodiment 1

[0066] Example 1: Production of Crude Purified Product

[0067]400 g of toluene and 3.25 g of phosphotungstic acid were added to a glass reactor equipped with a stirrer, a nitrogen blowing tube, a thermometer, and a water separator with a cooling tube, and azeotropic dehydration was carried out under reflux of toluene. Add 129.6 g (0.712 moles) of 9-fluorenone, 994.9 g (7.20 moles) of 2-phenoxyethanol, and 118.7 g toluene, and stir while removing the water generated by the reaction to the outside of the system under toluene reflux. 21 hours. 1,560 g of toluene was added to the obtained reaction mixture, and the obtained mixture was adjusted to 70° C., and washed with 520 g of water four times. The obtained organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to remove toluene and excess 2-phenoxyethanol. 1,800 g of toluene was added to the obtained mixture, and 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene was dissolved at 80° C., and the obtained solution was decolorized with...

[0069] Manufacture of Polymorph B

[0070] A suspension of 80 g of the crude purified product of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl) fluorene obtained in Example 1 and 640 g of toluene was heated to 90° C. and stirred at the same temperature for 1 hours to become a homogeneous solution. The solution was cooled to 80°C, 0.4 g of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene (polymorph B) was added as a seed crystal, and stirred at the same temperature for 2 hours to crystallize Precipitate. The liquid was cooled to 20° C. at a cooling rate of 0.2° C. per minute, and stirred at the same temperature for 1 hour to further precipitate crystals. The precipitated crystals were taken out by filtration, and dried under reduced pressure to obtain 73.0 g of white crystals of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene (91.3% yield, 99.2% purity). %). The melting point (maximum melting endothermic peak obtained by differential scanning calorimetry) of the obtained crystals was 164.0° C., a...

[0071] Example 3: Production of Crude Purified Product

[0072] 86.4 g (0.48 moles) of 9-fluorenone, 397.9 g (2.88 moles) of phenoxyethanol, 350 g of toluene and Phosphotungstic acid [(H 3 PW 12 o 40 )] 4.3g, under the reflux of toluene, remove the generated water to the outside of the reaction system, and stir for 12 hours at the same time. When the obtained reaction liquid was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, 197.3 g (0.45 mol) of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene was produced|generated. To this reaction liquid, 300 g of toluene was added, and 100 g of water was added, followed by washing with water at 80°C. The obtained organic layer was slowly cooled, and as a result, crystals began to precipitate at 12°C, and the mixture was kept cooled down to 10°C, and stirred for 12 hours. The precipitated crystals were taken out by filtration, and the crystals were dried to obtain 158.0 g of white crystals of a crude purified product of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hy...

Abstract

Disclosed is a process for producing a crystal polymorph of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene, which comprises the steps of: reacting fluorenone with 2-phenoxyethanol in the presence of a heteropoly acid; causing the crystallization of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene from the reaction mixture at a temperature lower than 50 DEG C to produce a crude product of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene; dissolving the crude product in at least one solvent selected from the group consisting of an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent, a ketone solvent and an ester solvent; and causing the crystallization of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene from the reaction mixture at a temperature of 50 DEG C or higher.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a novel crystalline polymorph of 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, fluorene derivatives such as 9,9-bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene are excellent in heat resistance and transparency, and may be used in the production of polymers with high refractive index. (such as epoxy resin, polyester, polyether, polycarbonate, etc.) raw materials to be used as blanks for optical lenses, films, plastic optical fibers, disc bases, heat-resistant resins, or engineering plastics. [0003] In these applications, high molecular weight, narrow molecular weight distribution, and low content of unreacted monomers or oligomers are important in order to produce thermally and optically excellent polymers. It is desirable to use 9,9- Bis(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)fluorene has high purity and excellent reactivity. Therefore, controlling the crystal form o...
