Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and in particular to an adamantylaniline derivative and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Triarylamine organic compounds have developed rapidly as organic electroluminescent materials in recent years. With the continuous development and research and development of organic electroluminescent materials, adamantyl aromatic hydrocarbons are increasingly used in OLED organic light-emitting materials. The market has a wider demand for aromatic amine organic intermediates containing adamantyl groups. Therefore, continuous research and development and innovation are needed to provide the market with more readily available materials.
[0003] Existing methods for preparing triarylamine organic compounds primarily involve nitration of adamantylbenzene in concentrated sulfuric acid and nitric acid followed by reduction. This method, however, requires a highly hazardous process, generates a large amount of waste acid, and is environmentally unfriendly. Alternatively, the method involves reacting excess benzamide with 1-adamantanol in concentrated sulfuric acid or trifluoroacetic acid at high temperatures. This method also suffers from poor selectivity, the requirement for a large excess of benzamide, poor atom economy, poor selectivity, numerous isomers, and difficulty in purification.
[0004] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing adamantylaniline derivatives, which can solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention
