Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a diphenyl ether anthraquinone dye (diphenyl ether anthraquinone dye). Background Art

[0002] Guest-host liquid crystal refers to a liquid crystal as the main body, and a dichroic dye is added as the guest. Under the action of the electric field, the dichroic dye molecules are arranged along the arrangement of the liquid crystal. Because the dichroic dye absorbs light only in the direction of the long axis of the molecule and hardly absorbs light in the direction of the short axis, when the long axis direction of the dye and the liquid crystal molecule is parallel to the incident light, it appears colorless or light-colored, and when the long axis direction of the dye and the liquid crystal molecule is perpendicular to the incident light, it appears in a dark colored state or dark state. This dimming property of guest-host liquid crystal is widely used in the display field and dimming field. Dichroic dyes are mainly divided into two categories: azo type and anthraquinone type. Azo dyes usually have high order parameters and simple preparation methods. They have the advantages of good solubility, high absorption coefficient, high order and dichroic ratio in liquid crystals. However, compared with anthraquinone dyes, azo dyes have the disadvantages of poor thermal stability and poor light resistance. The application of guest-host liquid crystals in outdoor display screens, building curtain walls, and vehicles requires higher heat and light resistance products for dyes, and anthraquinone dyes are the best choice.

[0003] Traditional anthraquinone dyes usually have the disadvantages of poor solubility and large synthesis difficulty. In anthraquinone dyes, blue, blue-green or green dyes are used as dyes that are indispensable for mixing into black, usually containing some amino groups, hydroxyl groups, etc. On the one hand, there are many synthesis steps and dangerous operation process. Patent CN112980212 reports a preparation method of a blue anthraquinone dye, which requires the use of hazardous chemicals 1,5-dihydroxy-4,8-dinitroanthraquinone as substrate, and the second step uses nitrobenzene as solvent to do nitro substitution reaction with a large risk of explosion. On the other hand, some active groups such as amino groups and hydroxyl groups on the dye molecular skeleton react easily with the active groups (such as carboxyl) of the main material under light and heat conditions, and the color changes, so the dye stability of the inactive group is stronger. In addition, the anthraquinone dyes of asymmetric structure, although the solubility of the dye can be significantly improved, are difficult to synthesize and have low yield. Summary of the invention
