[0233] 1-4. Production Method The compound can be produced by any method as long as its effects are not impaired. However, if an iodine atom or an R group is added to the compound containing the R group, 1 For example, the step of introducing an iodine atom into a compound having an aromatic ring may be carried out by reacting the compound having an aromatic ring with iodine I. 2This can be carried out by reacting the compounds under acidic or alkaline conditions. This reaction can produce compounds and dimers with different numbers of iodine atoms. The production ratios of these compounds can be adjusted by the reaction conditions. In particular, lowering the reaction temperature or shortening the reaction time tends to increase the number of compounds with fewer iodine atoms and decrease the number of dimers. Increasing the reaction temperature or lengthening the reaction time tends to decrease the number of compounds with fewer iodine atoms and increase the number of dimers. Furthermore, the step of introducing iodine atoms into a compound having an alicyclic ring can be carried out by reacting the compound having an alicyclic ring with HI (hydrogen iodide). A preferred method for producing the compound comprises reacting RG with a functional group capable of substituting an iodine atom by a substitution reaction, and, if necessary, R 1 Another method for producing the compound may include an iodination step of introducing iodine atoms into a raw material containing RG and, if necessary, R 1 The method may include an iodination step of introducing iodine into a raw material containing the above in the form of a radical or as a cation or anion.

[0234] [Iodination Step] The iodination step can be appropriately selected from a method of introducing a halogen from an amino group by the Sandmeyer reaction or the like, a method of reacting with iodine chloride in an organic solvent (e.g., JP 2012-180326 A, JP 2000-256231 A, JP 2010-159233 A, J. Chem. Soc. 636, 1943), a method of adding iodine dropwise to an alkaline aqueous solution of phenol in the presence of β-cyclodextrin under alkaline conditions (JP 63-101342 A, JP 2003-64012 A), and the like.

[0235] The iodinating agent is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include iodine chloride, iodine, N-iodosuccinimide, iodic acid, hydrogen iodide (including hydroiodic acid and aqueous hydrogen iodide solutions), etc. In the iodination step, the ratio of the iodinating agent to the substrate is preferably 1.2 molar times or more, more preferably 1.5 molar times or more, and even more preferably 2.0 molar times or more.

[0236] The iodination introduction reaction can be carried out by reacting at least an iodinating agent with a substrate. For example, the target compound can be obtained under known iodination reaction conditions using methods described in non-patent documents such as Adv. Synth. Catal. 2007, 349, 1159-1172, Organic Letters; Vol. 6; (2004); pp. 2785-2788, "Organic Synthesis of Bromine and Iodine Compounds: Reagents and Synthesis Methods" (edited by Suzuki Hitomi, published by Manac Corporation Research Institute, Maruzen Publishing), and patent documents such as US Pat. No. 5,300,506, US Pat. No. 5,434,154, US Pat. No. 2009 / 281114, EP1,439,164, and WO2006 / 101318. Examples of iodinating agents that can be used include, but are not limited to, iodine compounds, iodide monochloride, N-iodosuccinimide, benzyltrimethylammonium dichloroiodate, tetraethylammonium iodide, tetra-normal-butylammonium iodide, lithium iodide, sodium iodide, potassium iodide, 1-chloro-2-iodoethane, silver iodine fluoride, tert-butylhypoiodide, 1,3-diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, iodine-morpholine complex, trifluoroacetylhypoiodide, iodine-iodic acid, iodine-periodic acid, iodine-hydrogen peroxide, 1-iodoheptafluoropropane, triphenylphosphate-methyl iodide, iodine-thallium(I) acetate, 1-chloro-2-iodoethane, iodine-copper(II) acetate, and the like.

[0237] One or more additives can be added to the iodination reaction for the purpose of promoting the reaction or suppressing by-products. Examples of additives include acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, ferric chloride, aluminum chloride, copper chloride, antimony pentachloride, silver sulfate, silver nitrate, and silver trifluoroacetate; bases such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium bicarbonate; oxidizing agents such as cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate and sodium peroxodisulfate; inorganic compounds such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, mercury (II) oxide, and cerium oxide; organic compounds such as acetic anhydride; and porous substances such as zeolites. In the iodination step, the ratio of the additive to the iodinating agent is preferably 1.0 molar amount, more preferably 1.2 molar amounts or more, even more preferably 1.5 molar amounts or more, and even more preferably 2.0 molar amounts or more.

[0238] In the iodination step, iodine is preferably introduced into the mother nucleus using at least an iodine source and an oxidizing agent. Using an iodine source and an oxidizing agent is preferred from the viewpoints of reaction efficiency and improved purity. Examples of the iodination source include the iodinating agents described above. Examples of the oxidizing agent include iodic acid, periodic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and other additives (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, silver trifluoroacetate, cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN), etc.). Furthermore, for phenols having a carboxylic acid group or a nitro group, the iodination reaction can also be carried out using an iodine cation species formed by combining an iodine source such as iodine with a silver salt or fuming sulfuric acid. Furthermore, for other relatively inert aromatic compounds, the iodination reaction can be carried out by combining an iodine source with an inorganic salt to form hypoiodous acid and an iodine cation species. An example of an inorganic salt that can be used as appropriate is potassium peroxodisulfate. A method of introducing iodine into an aliphatic alcohol group by a substitution reaction can also be used as appropriate. Examples of iodinating agents that can be used include hydrogen halides, phosphorus halides, sulfonyl halides (a combination of NaI / acetone), thionyl halides, trimethylsilane halides, Vilsmeier reagents, and the Abbel reaction (a combination of triphenylphosphine and an iodine source).

[0239] The reaction in the iodination step can be carried out neat without a solvent, but examples of usable reaction solvents include halogen-based solvents such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride; alkyl-based solvents such as hexane, cyclohexane, heptane, pentane, and octane; aromatic hydrocarbon-based solvents such as benzene and toluene; alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 2-butanol; ether-based solvents such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, and tetrahydrofuran; acetic acid, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, and water.

[0240] The reaction temperature of the iodination step is not particularly limited and may be any temperature between the freezing point and the boiling point of the solvent used in the reaction, but is preferably 0°C to 150°C, more preferably 20°C to 150°C, and even more preferably 50°C to 120°C. The reaction time of the iodination step is also not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.25 to 48 hours, more preferably 0.25 to 24 hours, and even more preferably 1 to 12 hours. The reaction system may be refluxed to more efficiently proceed with iodination. Furthermore, in order to control the concentration of the iodinating agent in the reaction system, a reflux tube equipped with a Dean-Stark or the like may be used to control the concentration of the iodinating agent in the reaction solution.

[0241] The iodine substitution reaction in the iodination step can proceed by reacting at least an iodinating agent with a substrate. For example, the target compound can be obtained under known iodine substitution reaction conditions such as a Sandmeyer reaction using the method described in Chemistry - A European Journal, 24(55), 14622-14626; 2018, Synthesis (2007)(1), 81-84, etc.

[0242] [Protective Group Introduction Step] In the preferred method for producing the compound, the protective group represented by A' can be introduced into RG by a known method, for example, a method appropriately selected from those described in Green's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (Peter G.M. Wuts, Wiley), pp. 17 to 553.

[0243] In the protecting group introduction step, the ratio of the protecting group introduction agent to the substrate is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.5 molar equivalents or more, more preferably 1.0 molar equivalents or more, and even more preferably 1.5 molar equivalents or more. The reaction temperature in the protecting group introduction step is not particularly limited, but generally, a temperature of 0°C to 200°C is suitable. From the viewpoint of yield, a temperature of 10°C to 190°C is preferred, a temperature of 25°C to 150°C is more preferred, and a temperature of 50°C to 100°C is even more preferred. In the reaction of this embodiment, the preferred temperature range is 0°C to 100°C. The reaction time in the protecting group introduction step is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.25 to 48 hours, more preferably 0.25 to 24 hours, and even more preferably 1 to 12 hours.

[0244] [Reduction Step] In the compound of the formula (1), R 1 is a hydroxyalkyl group or an aldehyde group, for example, R 1 The compound can be obtained by introducing a carboxyl group, an ester group, or an aldehyde group into the compound and then reducing the resulting compound.

[0245] Known methods can be used for the reduction, including, for example, methods using metal hydride complexes such as sodium borohydride, lithium aluminum hydride, sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminum hydride (SBMEA), and diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL); methods using metal hydrides such as aluminum hydride; and methods using these reducing agents together with reduction promoters such as aluminum chloride and ethanedithiol. The reducing ability of the reducing agent may be adjusted by modifying a portion of its structure with an alkoxy group or a hydrocarbon group, or by using it in combination with a Lewis acid. Known solvents such as methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, DMF, and DMSO can be used as the solvent for the reduction reaction. The reaction temperature can be performed at room temperature or under heated conditions, or may be cooled to adjust the reactivity. The reaction temperature is not particularly limited, but is preferably −20°C to 150°C, more preferably 0°C to 150°C, and even more preferably 20°C to 120°C. The ratio of the reducing agent to the substrate in the reduction step is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.5 molar equivalent or more, more preferably 1.0 molar equivalent or more, and even more preferably 1.5 molar equivalent or more. The reaction time in the reduction step is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.25 to 48 hours, more preferably 0.25 to 24 hours, and even more preferably 1 to 12 hours.

[0246] The compound of this embodiment is preferably obtained as a crude product by the reaction, and then further purified to remove any remaining metal impurities. In other words, it is preferable to avoid residual metal impurities from the viewpoints of preventing deterioration of the resin over time and preservation stability, as well as from the viewpoints of process suitability and production yield due to defects when the resin is applied to a semiconductor manufacturing process. Metal impurities may originate from reaction aids in the compound manufacturing process, or from the reaction vessel or other manufacturing equipment used in the manufacturing process.

[0247] The residual amount of the above-mentioned metal impurities is preferably less than 1 ppm, more preferably less than 100 ppb, even more preferably less than 50 ppb, even more preferably less than 10 ppb, and most preferably less than 1 ppb, relative to the compound. In particular, for metal species classified as transition metals, such as Fe, Ni, Sn, Zn, Cu, Sb, W, and Al, if the residual metal amount is 1 ppm or more, there is a concern that interaction with other compounds may cause denaturation or deterioration of the material over time. Furthermore, for alkali metals and alkalinity metals, such as Na, K, Ca, and Mg, contained in the resin, if the residual metal amount is 1 ppm or more, the residual metal amount cannot be sufficiently reduced when using the compound to produce a resin for semiconductor processing, which may cause defects and performance degradation due to residual metals in the semiconductor manufacturing process, resulting in a decrease in yield, and there is a concern that the doping effect of metal elements on the substrate may cause a decrease in characteristics.

[0248] The purification method is not particularly limited, but the method described in International Publication No. 2015 / 080240 or International Publication No. 2018 / 159707 can be used. Specifically, this purification method includes dissolving the compound in an organic solvent that is immiscible with water to obtain an organic phase, contacting the organic phase with an acidic aqueous solution to perform an extraction process, thereby transferring metal components contained in the organic phase containing the compound and the organic solvent to the aqueous phase, and then separating the organic phase from the aqueous phase. The organic solvent that is immiscible with water is typically an organic solvent classified as a non-aqueous solvent. The organic solvent is not particularly limited, but is preferably an organic solvent that can be safely used in semiconductor manufacturing processes. The amount of organic solvent used is typically about 10% by mass relative to the compound used.

[0249] Specific examples of the organic solvent to be used include those described in International Publication No. 2015 / 080240. Among these, toluene, 2-heptanone, cyclohexanone, cyclopentanone, methyl isobutyl ketone, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA), ethyl acetate, etc. are preferred, with cyclohexanone and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate being particularly preferred.

[0250] The acidic aqueous solution can be appropriately selected from aqueous solutions prepared by dissolving commonly known organic or inorganic compounds in water. Examples include those described in International Publication No. 2015 / 080240. These acidic aqueous solutions can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Examples of the acidic aqueous solution include mineral acid aqueous solutions and organic acid aqueous solutions. Examples of the mineral acid aqueous solution include an aqueous solution containing one or more acids selected from the group consisting of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and phosphoric acid. Examples of the organic acid aqueous solution include an aqueous solution containing one or more acids selected from the group consisting of acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, methanesulfonic acid, phenolsulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, and trifluoroacetic acid. The pH range of the acidic aqueous solution is approximately 0 to 5, and more preferably approximately 0 to 3.

[0251] Other production methods that can be used appropriately include a method using a filter as described below, a method using an adsorptive ion exchange resin, passing a liquid through a column, a method of dispersing and suspending an ion exchange resin in a container, and a method using distillation.

[0252] In the method for producing the compound represented by formula (1), the order and number of the iodination step, the protecting group introduction step, and the reduction step are not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected depending on the structure of the target compound.

[0253] 1-5. Purification Method [Filter Purification Step (Liquid Passage Step)] In the filter passage step, a commercially available filter for liquid filtration can be used as the filter used to remove metals from a solution containing the compound and a solvent. The filtration accuracy of the filter is not particularly limited, but the nominal pore size of the filter is preferably 0.2 μm or less, more preferably less than 0.2 μm, even more preferably less than 0.1 μm, even more preferably less than 0.1 μm, and even more preferably 0.05 μm or less. The lower limit of the nominal pore size of the filter is not particularly limited, but is typically 0.005 μm. The nominal pore size here refers to the nominal pore size that indicates the separation performance of the filter, and is determined by a test method specified by the filter manufacturer, such as a bubble point test, a mercury intrusion porosimetry test, or a standard particle capture test. When a commercially available product is used, the value is that listed in the manufacturer's catalog data. By setting the nominal pore size to 0.2 μm or less, the metal content after a solution has been passed through the filter once can be effectively reduced. In the second embodiment, the filter passing step may be carried out two or more times in order to further reduce the content of each metal component in the solution.

[0254] As the form of the filter, hollow fiber membrane filter, membrane filter, pleated membrane filter, and filter filled with filter material such as nonwoven fabric, cellulose, and diatomaceous earth can be used. Among the above, it is preferable that the filter is one or more selected from the group consisting of hollow fiber membrane filter, membrane filter, and pleated membrane filter. In addition, it is particularly preferable to use hollow fiber membrane filter because of its particularly high filtration accuracy and high filtration area compared to other forms.

[0255] The filter material can be exemplified by polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyethylene-based resins with functional groups having ion exchange capacity by graft polymerization, polar group-containing resins such as polyamide, polyester, and polyacrylonitrile, and fluorine-containing resins such as fluorinated polyethylene (PTFE).Among the above, it is preferable that the filter material of the filter is one or more selected from the group consisting of polyamide, polyolefin resin, and fluororesin.In addition, polyamide is particularly preferable from the viewpoint of reducing heavy metals such as chromium.In addition, it is preferable to use a filter material other than sintered metal material from the viewpoint of preventing metal elution from the filter material.

[0256] Examples of polyamide filters (hereinafter referred to as trademarks) include, but are not limited to, the Polyfix Nylon series manufactured by Kitz Microfilter Co., Ltd., Ultipleat P-Nylon 66 and Ultipore N66 manufactured by Nippon Pall Co., Ltd., and the LifeAsure PSN series and LifeAsure EF series manufactured by 3M Limited. Examples of polyolefin filters include, but are not limited to, Ultipleat PE Clean and Ion Clean manufactured by Nippon Pall Co., Ltd., and the Protego series, Microguard Plus HC10, and Optimizer D manufactured by Nippon Entegris Co., Ltd. Examples of polyester filters include, but are not limited to, Gelaflow DFE manufactured by Central Filter Kogyo Co., Ltd., and Bleats Type PMC manufactured by Nippon Filter Co., Ltd. Examples of polyacrylonitrile filters include, but are not limited to, Ultrafilter AIP-0013D, ACP-0013D, and ACP-0053D manufactured by Advantec Toyo Co., Ltd. Examples of fluororesin filters include, but are not limited to, Enflon HTPFR manufactured by Nippon Pall Co., Ltd. and the Lifesure FA series manufactured by 3M Ltd. These filters may be used alone or in combination of two or more types.

[0257] The filter may also contain an ion exchanger such as a cation exchange resin, or a cationic charge regulator that generates a zeta potential in the organic solvent solution being filtered. Examples of filters containing an ion exchanger include, but are not limited to, the Protego series manufactured by Nippon Entegris Co., Ltd. and Clangraft manufactured by Kurashiki Seni Kako Co., Ltd. Examples of filters containing a substance with a positive zeta potential, such as a polyamide polyamine epichlorohydrin cationic resin, include, but are not limited to, Zeta Plus 40QSH (registered trademark), Zeta Plus 020GN (registered trademark), and the LifeAsure EF (registered trademark) series manufactured by 3M Limited.

[0258] [Treatment step with ion exchange resin] Another purification method is to treat a solution containing the compound with an ion exchange resin. As the ion exchange resin, a known ion exchange resin having a function corresponding to the target metal element can be used as appropriate. Purification using an ion exchange resin is a step in which the material to be purified containing the compound is subjected to ion exchange or ion adsorption by a chelating group. Components removed by the treatment step with an ion exchange resin include, but are not limited to, acid components and metal ions contained in the metal components.

[0259] The method for carrying out the ion exchange method is not particularly limited, and known methods can be used. A typical example is a method in which a solution containing the compound is passed through a packing filled with an ion exchange resin. Another example is a method in which an ion exchange resin is added to a solution containing the compound in a treatment vessel, followed by dispersion and suspension treatment, and then the ion exchange resin is separated and removed by a method such as filtration to obtain a purified solution. In the treatment step with an ion exchange resin, the product to be purified may be treated with the same ion exchange resin multiple times, or the product may be treated with different ion exchange resins.

[0260] Examples of ion exchange resins include cation exchange resins and anion exchange resins, and it is preferable to use at least a cation exchange resin because it is easy to adjust the content of the metal component and thereby make the mass ratio of the content of the acid component to the content of the metal component fall within the above range, and it is more preferable to use an anion exchange resin together with a cation exchange resin because it is possible to adjust the content of the acid component. When both a cation exchange resin and an anion exchange resin are used, the liquid may be passed through a packed section filled with a mixed resin containing both resins, or may be passed through multiple packed sections filled with each resin.

[0261] As the cation exchange resin, known cation exchange resins can be used, among which gel-type cation exchange resins are preferred, specifically sulfonic acid-type cation exchange resins and carboxylic acid-type cation exchange resins. As the cation exchange resin, commercially available products can be used, such as Amberlite IR-124, Amberlite IR-120B, Amberlite IR-200CT, ORLITE DS-1, ORLITE DS-4 (all manufactured by Organo Corporation), Duolite C20J, Duolite C20LF, Duolite C255LFH, Duolite C-433LF (all manufactured by Sumika Chemtex Co., Ltd.), DIAION SK-110, DIAION SK1B, and DIAION SK1BH (all manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation), Purolite S957, and Purolite S985 (all manufactured by Purolite Co., Ltd.), and the like.

[0262] As the anion exchange resin, known anion exchange resins can be used, and among them, it is preferable to use a gel-type anion exchange resin. Here, examples of acid components present as ions in the product to be purified include inorganic acids derived from catalysts used in the production of the product to be purified, and organic acids (e.g., reaction raw materials, isomers, and by-products) generated after the reaction in the production of the product to be purified. Such acid components are classified as hard acids to medium-hard acids in terms of the HSAB (Hard and Soft Acids and Bases) rule. Therefore, it is preferable to use an anion exchange resin containing a hard base to a medium-hard base in order to increase the removal efficiency of these acid components through interaction with the anion exchange resin. The anion exchange resin containing such a hard base to a moderately hard base is preferably at least one anion exchange resin selected from the group consisting of a strong base type I anion exchange resin having a trimethylammonium group, a slightly weakly strong base type II anion exchange resin having a dimethylethanolammonium group, and a weak base type anion exchange resin such as dimethylamine or diethylenetriamine. Among acid components, for example, organic acids are hard acids, and among inorganic acids, sulfate ions are moderately hard acids. Therefore, by using the above-mentioned strong base type or slightly weakly strong base type anion exchange resin in combination with a weak base type anion exchange resin of moderate hardness, it becomes easy to reduce the content of acid components to a suitable range.

[0263] As the anion exchange resin, commercially available products can be used, and examples thereof include Amberlite IRA-400J, Amberlite IRA-410J, Amberlite IRA-900J, Amberlite IRA67, ORLITE DS-2, ORLITE DS-5, and ORLITE DS-6 (manufactured by Organo Corporation), Duolite A113LF, Duolite A116, and Duolite A-375LF (manufactured by Sumika Chemtex), and DIAION SA12A, DIAION SA10A, DIAION SA10AOH, DIAION SA20A, and DIAION WA10 (manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation). Among these, examples of anion exchange resins containing the above-mentioned hard base to medium hardness base include ORLITE DS-6 and ORLITE DS-4 (all manufactured by Organo Corporation), DIAION SA12A, DIAION SA10A, DIAION SA10AOH, DIAION SA20A, and DIAION WA10 (all manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation), Purolite A400, Purolite A500, and Purolite A850 (all manufactured by Purolite Co., Ltd.), and the like.

[0264] Ion adsorption by chelating groups can be performed, for example, using a chelating resin having a chelating group. Chelate resins do not release substitute ions when capturing ions, and by not using chemically highly active functional groups such as strong acidity or strong basicity, they can suppress side reactions, such as hydrolysis and condensation reactions, in the organic solvent being purified. This allows for more efficient purification. Examples of chelating resins include resins having chelating groups or chelating ability, such as amidoxime groups, thiourea groups, thiouronium groups, iminodiacetic acid, amide phosphoric acid, phosphonic acid, amino phosphoric acid, aminocarboxylic acid, N-methylglucamine, alkylamino groups, pyridine rings, cyclic cyanines, phthalocyanine rings, and cyclic ethers. As the chelating resin, commercially available products can be used, such as Duolite ES371N, Duolite C467, Duolite C747UPS, Sumikelate MC760, Sumikelate MC230, Sumikelate MC300, Sumikelate MC850, Sumikelate MC640, and Sumikelate MC900 (all manufactured by Sumika Chemtex Co., Ltd.), Purolite S106, Purolite S910, Purolite S914, Purolite S920, Purolite S930, Purolite S950, Purolite S957, and Purolite S985 (all manufactured by Purolite Co., Ltd.).

[0265] The method for ion adsorption is not particularly limited, and known methods can be used. A typical example is a method in which the material to be purified is passed through a packed section filled with a chelating resin. In the treatment step using an ion exchange resin, the material to be purified may be passed through the same chelating resin multiple times, or may be passed through different chelating resins.

[0266] The packed section usually includes a container and the above-mentioned ion exchange resin packed in the container. Examples of the container include a column, a cartridge, and a packed tower, but other containers than those exemplified above may also be used as long as they are capable of passing the product to be purified after being packed with the ion exchange resin.

[0267] [Distillation Step] Another purification method is to distill the compound itself. The distillation method is not particularly limited, and known methods such as atmospheric distillation, reduced pressure distillation, molecular distillation, and steam distillation can be used.

[0296] In addition, when the method includes a step of preparing a compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3-0), the method includes: 1) a step of preparing a compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3-0); 2) an oxidation step of oxidizing the compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3-0), 3) a step of esterifying the carboxylic acid of the obtained compound, 4) an iodination step of converting the ester group of the obtained compound into a carboxyl group by hydrolysis.

[0297] The oxidation step for oxidizing the compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3-0) is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include a method using an oxidizing agent, a method of hydrolyzing a bromide, and a method of oxygen oxidation using an imide compound. Examples of the oxidizing agent include, but are not limited to, air, oxygen, ozone, nitric acid, halogens (chlorine, bromine, iodine), potassium nitrate, hypochlorous acid, permanganate, cerium ammonium nitrate, chromic acid, peroxide, Tollens' reagent, and ruthenium compounds. It is desirable to use a ruthenium compound. Examples of the ruthenium compound include, but are not limited to, ruthenium metal, ruthenium dioxide, ruthenium tetroxide, ruthenium hydroxide, ruthenium chloride, ruthenium bromide, ruthenium iodide, ruthenium sulfate, and hydrates thereof. These compounds can be used alone or in combination. Among ruthenium compounds, ruthenium chloride, ruthenium dioxide, or hydrates thereof are particularly preferred, as they readily react with periodate or hypochlorite used as a co-oxidant to produce highly oxidized ruthenium having a highly active catalytic function. As the periodate, potassium periodate, sodium periodate, or calcium periodate is preferred, with sodium periodate being more preferred. One or more types of oxidizing agents or co-oxidizing agents can be used.

[0298] The step of esterifying the carboxylic acid of the obtained compound may be the same as the esterification step in formula (Bz).

[0299] The step of hydrolyzing the ester group of the obtained compound to convert it to a carboxyl group is not particularly limited, but preferably involves hydrolysis using an acid catalyst or a base catalyst to convert it to a carboxyl group, and from the viewpoint of selectivity of hydrolysis, it is preferable to use a base catalyst. The acid catalyst is not particularly limited, but examples include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrobromic acid, and hydrofluoric acid; organic acids such as oxalic acid, formic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, naphthalenesulfonic acid, and naphthalenedisulfonic acid; Lewis acids such as zinc chloride, aluminum chloride, iron chloride, and boron trifluoride; and solid acids such as silicotungstic acid, phosphotungstic acid, silicomolybdic acid, and phosphomolybdic acid. From the viewpoint of production, such as ease of availability and ease of handling, it is preferable to use hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. The base catalyst is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include organic base catalysts such as pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, α-picoline, β-picoline, 2,4-lutidine, 2,6-lutidine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, tributylamine, imidazole, N,N-dimethylaniline, and N,N-diethylaniline, and inorganic base catalysts such as potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, and sodium bicarbonate, with inorganic salt catalysts being preferred, and potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide being more preferred. Furthermore, one or more types of acid catalysts or base catalysts can be used.

[0300] The iodination step for iodinating the compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3-0) may be the same as the above-mentioned iodination step.

[0301] As another embodiment of the method for producing a compound represented by formula (1), it is preferable to further include the step of: 4) preparing a compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3) in order to improve productivity.

[0302]

[0303] In addition, when the method includes a step of preparing a compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3), the method includes: 1) a step of preparing a compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3); 2) a reduction step of reducing the compound represented by formula (Ad-A-3).

[0304] The reduction step of reducing the obtained compound may be the same as the reduction step described above.

[0305] The solvents that can be used in the iodination step include those mentioned in the method for producing a compound in which RG is benzene. In this step, a raw material compound, a catalyst, and a solvent are added to a reactor to form a reaction mixture. The reaction conditions can also be the same as those described in the method for producing a compound in which RG is benzene.

[0306] Furthermore, the iodination step preferably includes concentrating the reaction solution by distilling off water in the reaction to obtain an alkyl iodide using an aqueous hydrogen iodide solution and an adamantane alcohol as raw materials. The hydrogen iodide concentration of the reaction solution is preferably 10% or more, more preferably 25% or more, even more preferably 40% or more, particularly preferably 45% or more, and most preferably 50% or more. When the reaction solution is separated into two or more phases, it is preferable that the hydrogen iodide concentration of the aqueous phase containing hydrogen iodide is within the above range.

[0307] The adamantane alcohol may have only one hydroxy group in the molecule, or two or more hydroxy groups. The hydroxy group to be iodized may be primary, secondary, or tertiary, but is preferably secondary or tertiary, and more preferably tertiary.

[0308] The adamantane alcohol is preferably represented by the following formula (MA-1): 1 , R″ are defined the same as in formula (Ad), except that R 1 is -OH, -NO 2 Preferably, the functional group is a monovalent group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms which may contain at least one functional group. The functional group may be a hydroxyl group, an ether group, an ester group, a carboxyl group, a halogen atom, or —NO 2and NLL', where L and L' are each independently a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or a monovalent group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms which may contain at least one functional group.

[0309]

[0310] The amount of hydrogen iodide is preferably 1.01 equivalents or more, more preferably 1.1 equivalents or more, even more preferably 1.3 equivalents or more, and particularly preferably 1.5 equivalents or more, relative to the hydroxy groups to be iodinated, in terms of the substance ratio.

[0311] When the compound of formula (MA-1) has two or more hydroxy groups in the molecule, all of the hydroxy groups may be iodinated, or one or more hydroxy groups may remain. A method for selectively leaving one or more hydroxy groups may include, for example, a step of performing iodination in a multiphase system containing an organic phase containing an organic solvent as a solvent and an aqueous phase containing water as a solvent. Examples of organic solvents include hydrophobic solvents, and the hydrophobic solvent refers to a solvent that is immiscible with water in any proportion. When the aqueous phase is derived from an aqueous hydrogen halide solution, in a reaction system in which the aqueous hydrogen halide solution and the hydrophobic solvent undergo liquid-liquid two-phase separation into an aqueous phase and a hydrophobic solvent phase, iodination of the hydroxy groups proceeds in the aqueous phase. It is possible to obtain an alkyl iodide with one or more remaining hydroxy groups by extracting an alkyl iodide with one or more remaining hydroxy groups from an alcohol having two or more hydroxy groups into the hydrophobic solvent phase. Furthermore, by extracting the resulting alkyl iodide into the hydrophobic solvent phase, yield reduction due to side reactions can be suppressed, so the use of a hydrophobic solvent is also effective when all hydroxy groups are to be iodinated.

[0312] The hydrophobic solvent may or may not form an azeotropic mixture with water, but a hydrophobic solvent that forms an azeotropic mixture with water is preferred. Examples of hydrophobic solvents that form an azeotropic mixture with water include dichloromethane, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, nitromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, pentane, cyclohexane, hexane, benzene, toluene, o-xylene, m-xylene, p-xylene, cumene, nitrobenzene, phenol, s-butanol, cyclopentyl methyl ether, and cyclohexanone, with hexane, toluene, o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene being preferred. The hydrophobic solvent may be used alone, or two or more hydrophobic solvents may be used in combination.

[0313] The amount of the hydrophobic solvent is preferably 50 equivalents or less, more preferably 30 equivalents or less, and even more preferably 20 equivalents or less, based on the mass ratio of the raw material alcohol.

[0314] An acid may be used in the reaction, such as sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, succinic acid, chromic acid, or boric acid.

[0315] During the reaction, metal iodides can be used in combination. For example, LiI, NaI, KI, MgI 2 , CaI 2 , AlI 3 The combination of these is effective.

[0316] During the reaction, it is preferable to stir the reaction solution to prevent bumping. Stirring blades of various shapes can be suitably used, such as flat paddle blades, inclined paddle blades, turbine blades, disk turbine blades, propeller blades, three-bladed swept blades, anchor blades, helical ribbon blades, screw blades, anchor blades, Max Blend, Full Zone, Twin Star, etc.

[0317] The stirring speed can be any speed. When a hydrophobic solvent is used and the reaction solution is separated into two liquid-liquid phases, the stirring speed may be set to a level that causes the interface to fluctuate, a stirring speed that generates and disperses some oil droplets or water droplets, or a stirring speed that results in a completely dispersed state. Furthermore, the reaction time for iodination can be shortened by allowing the mixture to stand and then stirring after charging the substrate and iodinating agent. The standing time is preferably 1 to 48 hours, more preferably 4 to 24 hours, and even more preferably 8 to 12 hours.

[0318] The reaction temperature is preferably 0 to 150°C, more preferably 20 to 150°C, and even more preferably 50 to 120°C. On the other hand, in order to obtain an iodine alkyl in high yield, it is preferable to concentrate the reaction solution by distilling off water during the reaction. In order to distill off water, the reaction temperature must be the boiling point of the reaction solution. If the boiling point fluctuates due to the use of a hydrophobic solvent, the reaction temperature can be controlled by reducing or increasing the pressure of the reaction.

[0319] The reaction temperature can also be controlled by changing the stirring speed. Generally, when a hydrophobic solvent forms an azeotrope with water, the azeotropic point is lower than the boiling point of the solvent. When a hydrophobic solvent that forms an azeotrope with water is used and the reaction liquid is separated into two liquid-liquid phases, as the stirring speed increases, the two phases approach a completely dispersed state, and accordingly the boiling point approaches the azeotropic point, so the reaction temperature can be controlled by the stirring speed.

[0320] When concentrating the reaction solution, all of the water distilled by simple distillation may be distilled off, or a required amount may be distilled off using a Dean-Stark apparatus or the like, but it is preferable to distill off the required amount using a Dean-Stark apparatus or the like.

[0321] The amount of water to be distilled off is preferably determined so as to maintain the hydrogen iodide concentration at a predetermined concentration or higher. The concentration is preferably at least 15% lower than the hydrogen iodide concentration in the feed, more preferably at least 10% lower than the hydrogen halide concentration in the feed, even more preferably at least 5% lower than the hydrogen iodide concentration in the feed, and particularly preferably at least the hydrogen iodide concentration in the feed. A fixed amount of water may be distilled off continuously, or may be distilled off all at once at predetermined time intervals. After completion of the reaction, the alkyl iodide is purified and isolated.

[0322] During the reaction, hydrogen iodide is oxidized to produce elemental iodine. If elemental iodine remains, it can cause coloration, etc., so it is preferable to reduce it to hydrogen iodide using a reducing agent. The type of reducing agent is not particularly limited, but examples include sodium sulfite, sodium hydrogen sulfite, and phosphinic acid.

[0323] Another preferred method for removing elemental iodine is to add an iodide salt to the reaction solution and remove the elemental iodine by transferring it to the aqueous layer. Potassium iodide or the like can be used as the iodide salt.

[0324] The reducing agent may be added directly to the reaction solution or may be added as an aqueous solution. The reducing agent may be added in a state where hydrogen iodide remains in the reaction solution, or may be added after neutralizing the hydrogen iodide with a base. The base used in the neutralization step is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate.

[0325] The iodination step is also preferably a method using a combination of trimethylsilyl chloride and sodium iodide or potassium iodide, and adamantane alcohol as raw materials. The solvent is preferably a polar aprotic solvent, and is not limited thereto. Examples include ether solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, diglyme, and triglyme; ester solvents such as ethyl acetate and γ-butyrolactone; nitrile solvents such as acetonitrile; hydrocarbon solvents such as toluene and hexane; amide solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, hexamethylphosphoramide, and hexamethylphosphite triamide; ketone solvents such as acetone and ethyl methyl ketone; chlorine-based solvents such as dichloromethane and chloroform; and dimethyl sulfoxide. Acetonitrile is most preferred. The ratio of trimethylsilyl chloride to sodium iodide used is preferably 1.0 molar amount or more, more preferably 1.5 molar amount or more, and even more preferably 2.0 molar amount or more. When acetonitrile is used as a solvent, the reaction temperature is preferably reflux condition.

[0326] In the iodination reaction using a combination of trimethylsilyl chloride and sodium iodide or potassium iodide, the concentration method, type of reducing agent, stirring speed, form of filter, etc. can be the same as those in the above-mentioned iodination reaction using hydrogen iodide.

[0327] When an adamantane polyol is used as a raw material, it is preferable to use hydrogen iodide as an iodinating agent when introducing multiple iodine atoms, and it is preferable to use a combination of trimethylsilyl chloride and sodium iodide or potassium iodide as an iodinating agent when introducing one iodine atom.

[0328] When a hydrophobic solvent is used, purification is possible by washing the hydrophobic solvent phase with water. For example, pure water, a sodium chloride aqueous solution, a nitric acid aqueous solution, an oxalic acid aqueous solution, a sulfuric acid aqueous solution, or a hydrogen chloride aqueous solution can be suitably used for washing with water. Furthermore, after completion of the reaction, a hydrophobic solvent can be added and washed with water. The hydrophobic solvent added after completion of the reaction may be the same as or different from the hydrophobic solvent used in the reaction.

[0329] Generally, washing with water is carried out at around room temperature, but if the product precipitates when washing with water at room temperature, washing with water can be carried out while heating. The temperature for washing with water is preferably not higher than the azeotropic temperature of the hydrophobic solvent and water.

[0330] As described above, purification can also be performed by passing the liquid through an ion exchange resin, a chelating resin, a metal removal filter, a particulate removal filter, etc. The ion exchange resin, the chelating resin, the metal removal filter, and the particulate removal filter may be used alone during purification, or may be used in combination with an operation such as washing with water.

[0331] The compound of formula (Ad) can be isolated by distillation or crystallization. When isolating by distillation, the distillation method is not particularly limited, and for example, methods such as batch simple distillation, equilibrium flash distillation, batch rectification, and continuous rectification can be suitably applied. In addition, the compound of formula (Ad) may be recovered by distillation, or may be recovered as a bottoms liquid or a bottom product.

[0332] When isolating by crystallization, the hydrophobic solvent used in the reaction may be used as is, or a new solvent may be added. The solvent may be a single solvent or a combination of two or more solvents.

[0333] The amount of the solvent used during crystallization is preferably 20 equivalents or less, more preferably 10 equivalents or less, even more preferably 5 equivalents or less, and particularly preferably 3 equivalents or less, in terms of mass ratio relative to the compound of formula (Ad). The ratio of the solvent to the compound of formula (Ad) can also be adjusted by distilling off the solvent.

[0334] Crystals may be precipitated by adding seed crystals, or by cooling the solution without adding seed crystals. After crystal precipitation, the slurry is cooled to improve yield. The cooling rate is preferably 30°C / h or less, more preferably 20°C / h or less, even more preferably 10°C / h or less, and particularly preferably 5°C / h or less.

[0335] The temperature at which the slurry is subjected to solid-liquid separation after cooling is preferably −50 to 40° C., more preferably −20 to 30° C., and even more preferably −20 to 10° C. The holding time from when the slurry temperature reaches the temperature at which solid-liquid separation occurs until solid-liquid separation is not particularly limited, but is preferably within 24 hours, and more preferably within 10 hours.

[0336] The method of solid-liquid separation is not particularly limited, but for example, methods such as Nutsche filtration, centrifugation, and pressure filtration can be suitably applied.

[0337] Furthermore, a base or an oxidizing agent can be used when iodinating compound (MA). When the base or oxidizing agent has high activity, compound (Da2) can be synthesized. Examples of the base include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, calcium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium bicarbonate. Examples of the oxidizing agent include, but are not limited to, periodic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and predetermined additives (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, etc.). Furthermore, compound (Da2) can also be synthesized by condensing the hydroxyl groups of compound (MA) together using a strong acid or the like.

[0338] The method for producing compound (B) according to the present invention preferably further comprises a step of treatment using an adsorbent. The method for producing compound (B) may involve removing impurities using an adsorbent, or multiple types of filter filtration and adsorbents may be used in appropriate combination. Examples of adsorbents include known adsorbents, such as inorganic adsorbents such as alumina, activated alumina, silica gel, silica-alumina, zeolite (synthetic zeolite, etc.), mica, and organic adsorbents such as activated carbon, molecular sieves, and ion exchange resins. When a target organism comes into contact with a clean solid surface, the target component is adsorbed to the surface due to the interaction between the solid surface atoms and the target component, and this adsorption action can be used to adsorb and remove specific components. Depending on the type of interaction, adsorption phenomena can be classified into two types: physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. Physical adsorption is a phenomenon in which atoms or molecules adsorb onto a solid surface, where the adsorption is primarily due to van der Waals forces between gas molecules and surface atoms. Its characteristics include little substance specificity, a fast adsorption rate, a small heat of adsorption (up to 20 kJ mol-1), multilayer adsorption, and reversible desorption without dissociation. On the other hand, chemical adsorption is a phenomenon in which atoms or molecules adsorb onto a solid surface, where the adsorption is due to chemical bond formation or charge transfer interactions. Many gas molecules and gas atoms are chemically adsorbed onto metals and metal oxides. Its characteristics include strong substance specificity, a slow adsorption rate, a large heat of adsorption (several hundred kJ mol-1), and only monolayer adsorption occurs.

[0339] The removal of impurities using an adsorbent is not particularly limited as long as the compound (B) coexisting with the impurities is brought into contact with the adsorbent, but examples thereof include adding the adsorbent to the reaction solution (also called silica dispersion), passing the reaction solution through a column packed with an adsorbent, dissolving the compound (B) coexisting with the impurities in an organic solvent and adding the adsorbent, and passing the compound (B) coexisting with the impurities through a column packed with an adsorbent.From the viewpoint of productivity, it is preferable to add an adsorbent to the reaction solution.Furthermore, from the viewpoint of selectively removing impurities from the compound (B) and suppressing the incorporation of impurities from the adsorbent, it is preferable to use alumina, activated alumina, silica gel, or silica-alumina as the adsorbent, and it is more preferable to use silica gel or silica-alumina.

[0340] 2. Composition The compound is useful as a composition. The compound is particularly useful as a composition for lithography, and may be a composition for use in lithography. Hereinafter, a composition containing the compound will be described using a composition for lithography as an example.

[0341] The compound exhibits a sensitizing effect on the lithography composition containing the compound upon irradiation with radiation. Therefore, one aspect of this embodiment may be a method for exhibiting a sensitizing effect on the lithography composition upon irradiation with radiation using the compound, and preferably uses two or more of the compounds. The reason for this is thought to be, but is not limited to, that the compound promotes radiation absorption. This effect is particularly pronounced when irradiated with extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light. The sensitizing effect can take multiple forms. When a photosensitive layer formed using the lithography composition is used as a resist film for lithography, the sensitizing effect can be confirmed, for example, as follows: 1) Using a patternless surface exposure method, the film thickness is measured after exposure, optionally followed by a PEB process (a process of performing a post-exposure heat treatment) and optionally a development process (a process of dissolving and removing exposed or unexposed areas with a developer). 2) The exposure dose is changed, the film thickness is measured, and the exposure dose at which the film thickness changes drastically is defined as the sensitivity in the surface exposure method. 3) If sensitivity is confirmed on the low exposure dose side, the sensitizing effect can be confirmed. In addition, in a method of forming a pattern by exposure, 1) a pattern is formed by varying the exposure dose, and the exposure dose at which a specified line width is obtained after exposure is defined as the sensitivity. 2) If sensitivity is confirmed on the lower exposure dose side, it can be determined that a sensitization effect has been achieved. Furthermore, lithography compositions containing the above-mentioned compound are useful for suppressing defects in resist patterns. In particular, in pattern evaluation using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light, this can also be confirmed by a reduction in defects such as pitting and bridging. These defects are caused by fluctuations in the optical exposure dose or by exposure conditions at low exposure doses that are essentially similar to defects. However, if the resist film has a sensitization effect, the aforementioned fluctuations and defects are avoided by promoting absorption, thereby reducing the defects. When the above-mentioned compound is used in a lithography composition, the compound can be used directly as a component of the composition. Alternatively, the compound can be processed into a resin (substrate (A)) containing the compound as a partial structure, or additives (acid generator (C), crosslinker (G), acid diffusion inhibitor (E), other components (F), etc.), and used as a lithography composition containing these resins and additives as components.

[0342] The composition for lithography according to this embodiment contains a compound represented by formula (1) (hereinafter also referred to as "compound (B)"), and may contain other components, such as a base material (A), a solvent (S), an acid generator (C), a crosslinking agent (G), and an acid diffusion controller (E), as necessary. Each component will be described below.

[0343] [Compound (B)] The composition of this embodiment contains one or more compounds (B). Although not limited thereto, it is preferable that the composition contains two or more compounds (B). When two or more compounds (B) are contained, etching defects tend to be reduced as shown in the examples described below. The reason for the reduction in etching defects is unclear, but it is thought that, for example, the compatibility of compound (B) in the composition is improved, which may reduce fine defects when a film is formed. RG of compound B is preferably a group derived from benzene, naphthalene, or adamantane, which may have a substituent. When two or more compounds B are contained, the groups derived from RG may be the same or different.

[0344] The amount of compound (B) is not limited, but when a small amount of compound (B) is present (this compound is referred to as compound (B')), the amount of compound (B') is preferably 1 ppm or more, and more preferably 10 ppm or more, of the total amount of compounds (B), from the viewpoint of improving etching defects. Furthermore, when a compound (B) is present in the largest amount (this compound is referred to as compound (B")), the content of compound (B'"), which has a lower iodine atom content in its molecule than compound (B"), is preferably 40% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and most preferably 5% by mass or less, of the total amount of compounds (B), from the viewpoint of improving sensitivity.

[0345] In one embodiment, when the monomer compound having a large number of iodine atoms is H, the monomer compound having a small number of iodine atoms is L, and the dimer compound is D in compound (B), the following combinations can be exemplified: H / L (mass ratio, the same applies hereinafter) = (97 to 99.999): (3 to 0.001) H / D = (97 to 99.999): (3 to 0.001) H / L / D = (95 to 99.999): (2.5 to 0.0005): (2.5 to 0.0005) Furthermore, the following combinations are more preferable. H / L = (98 to 99.99): (2 to 0.01) H / D = (98 to 99.99): (2 to 0.01) H / L / D = (97 to 99.99): (1.5 to 0.005): (1.5 to 0.005) Furthermore, the following combinations are more preferred: H / L = (99 to 99.9): (1 to 0.1) H / D = (99 to 99.9): (1 to 0.1) H / L / D = (98 to 99.9): (1 to 0.05): (1 to 0.05) Furthermore, the following combinations are particularly preferred. H / L=(99.5-99.9):(0.5-0.1) H / D=(99.5-99.9):(0.5-0.1) H / L / D=(99-99.9):(0.5-0.05):(0.5-0.05)

[0346] The method for mixing two or more types of compound (B) is not limited, and two or more types of compound (B) may be mixed, or may be simultaneously synthesized as a mixture in the process of synthesizing compound (B).

[0347] More preferred embodiments of compound B include the following. 1) A combination of a reference compound represented by formula (1) and a compound represented by formula (1) but having fewer iodine atoms than the reference compound (preferably a compound represented by formula (BP0-1) described below). 2) A combination of a reference compound represented by formula (1) and a multimer of a compound represented by formula (1) (preferably a compound represented by formula (DM0-1) described above). 3) A combination of a reference compound represented by formula (1), the compound having fewer iodine atoms, and the multimer.

The weight average molecular weight can be a value obtained by measuring the weight average molecular weight in terms of polystyrene using GPC.

[0438] [Solvent (S)] The solvent in this embodiment may be any solvent that dissolves compound (B), and known solvents may be used as appropriate. Specific examples of the solvent include ethylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates; ethylene glycol monoalkyl ethers; propylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates (e.g., propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate); propylene glycol monoalkyl ethers; lactate esters; aliphatic carboxylic acid esters; other esters; aromatic hydrocarbons; ketones; 3:9 amides; lactones; and the like. Specific examples of these solvents include those disclosed in Patent Document 1.

[0439] The solvent used in the present embodiment is preferably a safe solvent, more preferably at least one selected from PGMEA (propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate), PGME (propylene glycol monomethyl ether), CHN (cyclohexanone), CPN (cyclopentanone), 2-heptanone, anisole, butyl acetate, and ethyl lactate, and even more preferably at least one selected from PGMEA, PGME, CHN, CPN, and ethyl lactate.

[0440] In this embodiment, the amounts of the solid components and the solvent are not particularly limited, but are preferably 1 to 80% by mass of the solid components and 20 to 99% by mass of the solvent, more preferably 1 to 50% by mass of the solid components and 50 to 99% by mass of the solvent, even more preferably 2 to 40% by mass of the solid components and 60 to 98% by mass of the solvent, and particularly preferably 2 to 10% by mass of the solid components and 90 to 98% by mass of the solvent, relative to the total mass of the solid components and the solvent. The total mass of the solid components (the sum of the solid components including optional components such as the base material (A), the compound (B), the acid generator (C), the crosslinking agent (G), the acid diffusion controller (E), and other components (F); the same applies hereinafter) is defined as the amount of the solid components.

[0441] [Acid Generator (C)] The composition of the present embodiment preferably contains one or more acid generators (C). The acid generator (C) is a material that generates an acid directly or indirectly when irradiated with any radiation selected from visible light, ultraviolet light, excimer laser, electron beam, extreme ultraviolet light (EUV), X-rays, and ion beam. As the acid generator (C), for example, those described in WO 2013 / 024778 can be used. Two or more types of acid generators (C) can also be used in combination.

[0442] The amount of the acid generator (C) used is preferably 0.001 to 49% by mass, more preferably 1 to 40% by mass, still more preferably 3 to 30% by mass, and particularly preferably 10 to 25% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components. By using the acid generator (C) within the above range, a pattern profile with high sensitivity and low edge roughness tends to be obtained.

[0443] [Crosslinking Agent (G)] The composition of this embodiment preferably contains one or more crosslinking agents (G). The crosslinking agent (G) can crosslink at least either the substrate (A) or the compound (B). The crosslinking agent (G) intramolecularly or intermolecularly crosslinks the substrate (A) in the presence of the acid generated from the acid generator (C). Examples of such acid crosslinking agents include compounds having one or more groups (hereinafter referred to as "crosslinkable groups") capable of crosslinking the substrate (A). Examples of the crosslinking agent (G) having the crosslinkable group include those described in WO 2013 / 024778. Two or more crosslinking agents (G) can also be used in combination.

[0444] In this embodiment, the amount of crosslinking agent (G) used is preferably 0.5 to 50% by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 40% by mass, even more preferably 1 to 30% by mass, and particularly preferably 2 to 20% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components. When the blending ratio of the crosslinking agent (G) is 0.5% by mass or more, the effect of suppressing the solubility of the resist film in an alkaline developer tends to be improved, and a decrease in the residual film rate and the occurrence of swelling or meandering of the pattern tend to be suppressed. On the other hand, when the blending ratio is 50% by mass or less, a decrease in the heat resistance of the resist tend to be suppressed.

[0445] [Acid Diffusion Controller (E)] The composition of this embodiment may contain an acid diffusion controller (E). The acid diffusion controller (E) controls the diffusion of the acid generated from the acid generator upon irradiation in the resist film, thereby preventing undesirable chemical reactions in unexposed areas. The use of the acid diffusion controller (E) tends to improve the storage stability of the composition of this embodiment. Furthermore, the use of the acid diffusion controller (E) can improve the resolution of the film formed using the composition of this embodiment. In addition, the use of the acid diffusion controller (E) can suppress changes in the line width of the resist pattern due to variations in the waiting time before and after irradiation, which tends to improve process stability. Examples of the acid diffusion controller (E) include radiation-decomposable basic compounds such as those described in WO 2013 / 024778. Two or more types of acid diffusion controllers (E) can also be used in combination.

[0446] The amount of the acid diffusion controller (E) is preferably 0.001 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0.01 to 10% by mass, even more preferably 0.01 to 5% by mass, and particularly preferably 0.01 to 3% by mass, based on the total mass of the solid components. When the amount of the acid diffusion controller (E) is within the above range, degradation of resolution, pattern shape, dimensional fidelity, and the like tends to be prevented. Furthermore, even if the exposure time between electron beam irradiation and post-exposure heating is long, degradation of the shape of the upper layer of the pattern can be suppressed. Furthermore, when the amount is 10% by mass or less, degradation of sensitivity, developability of unexposed areas, and the like tends to be prevented. Furthermore, the use of such an acid diffusion controller improves the storage stability and resolution of the resist composition, and also suppresses changes in the line width of the resist pattern due to variations in exposure time before and after radiation exposure, tending to improve process stability.

[0447] [Other Components (F)] The composition of this embodiment may contain one or more of the following additives as the other component (F). (Dissolution Promoter) When the solubility of a solid component in a developer is too low, the dissolution promoter increases the solubility and appropriately increases the dissolution rate of the compound during development. The dissolution promoter is preferably a low-molecular-weight compound, and examples of such a compound include low-molecular-weight phenolic compounds. Examples of low-molecular-weight phenolic compounds include bisphenols and tris(hydroxyphenyl)methane. Two or more dissolution promoters may also be used in combination.

[0448] The amount of the dissolution promoter to be added is adjusted appropriately depending on the type of the solid component used, but is preferably 0 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0 to 5% by mass, even more preferably 0 to 1% by mass, and particularly preferably 0% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components.

[0449] (Dissolution Controller) When the solubility of a solid component in a developer is too high, the dissolution controller controls the solubility and appropriately reduces the dissolution rate during development. Such a dissolution controller is preferably one that does not undergo chemical changes during processes such as baking, irradiation, and development of the resist film.

[0450] The dissolution controller is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include aromatic hydrocarbons such as phenanthrene, anthracene, and acenaphthene; ketones such as acetophenone, benzophenone, and phenyl naphthyl ketone; and sulfones such as methyl phenyl sulfone, diphenyl sulfone, and dinaphthyl sulfone. Two or more dissolution controllers can also be used in combination. The amount of the dissolution controller is adjusted appropriately depending on the type of compound used, but is preferably 0 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0 to 5% by mass, even more preferably 0 to 1% by mass, and particularly preferably 0% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components.

[0451] (Sensitizer) The sensitizer absorbs the energy of the irradiated radiation and transfers that energy to the acid generator (C), thereby increasing the amount of acid produced and improving the apparent sensitivity of the resist. Examples of such sensitizers include benzophenones, biacetyls, pyrenes, phenothiazines, and fluorenes. Two or more sensitizers can also be used in combination. The amount of sensitizer added is adjusted appropriately depending on the type of compound used, but is preferably 0 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0 to 5% by mass, even more preferably 0 to 1% by mass, and particularly preferably 0% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components.

[0452] (Surfactant) The surfactant improves the coatability, striation, resist developability, and other properties of the composition of this embodiment. The surfactant may be an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, or an amphoteric surfactant. Preferred surfactants include nonionic surfactants. Nonionic surfactants have good affinity with the solvent used in producing the composition of this embodiment, further enhancing the effects of the composition of this embodiment. Examples of nonionic surfactants include, but are not limited to, polyoxyethylene higher alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene higher alkyl phenyl ethers, and higher fatty acid diesters of polyethylene glycol. Commercially available surfactants such as those described in Patent Document 1 can also be used. The amount of surfactant added is adjusted appropriately depending on the type of solid component used, but is preferably 0 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0 to 5% by mass, even more preferably 0 to 1% by mass, and particularly preferably 0% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components.

[0453] (Organic Carboxylic Acid, or Phosphorus Oxo Acid, or Derivative of the Oxo Acid) Organic carboxylic acids, phosphorus oxo acids, or derivatives of the oxo acids (hereinafter also referred to as "acids or derivatives") have effects such as preventing sensitivity degradation, improving resist pattern shape, or improving post-deposition stability. Examples of organic carboxylic acids include malonic acid as described in Patent Document 1. Examples of phosphorus oxo acids or derivatives thereof include phosphonic acid or derivatives such as esters thereof as described in Patent Document 1, and among these, phosphonic acid is particularly preferred.

[0454] The amount of the acid or derivative may be adjusted appropriately depending on the type of the compound used, but is preferably 0 to 49% by mass, more preferably 0 to 5% by mass, even more preferably 0 to 1% by mass, and particularly preferably 0% by mass, of the total mass of the solid components.

[0455] (Other Additives) Furthermore, the composition of the present embodiment may contain additives other than the components described above, as necessary. Examples of such additives include dyes, pigments, and adhesion promoters. For example, the incorporation of a dye or pigment is preferable because it can visualize the latent image in the exposed area and mitigate the effects of halation during exposure. Furthermore, the incorporation of an adhesion promoter is preferable because it can improve adhesion to the substrate. Further examples of other additives include antihalation agents, storage stabilizers, antifoaming agents, shape modifiers, and the like, specifically 4-hydroxy-4'-methylchalcone.

[0456] [Ratio of Components in the Composition] In the composition of this embodiment, the amount of compound B is preferably 10 ppm to 10% by mass of the total mass of the solid components of the composition. In this disclosure, the total mass of the solid components refers to the sum of the solid components, including the base material (A), compound (B), acid generator (C), crosslinking agent (G), acid diffusion controller (E), and other optional components (F). The mass ratio of base material (A) to compound (B) is preferably 3:97 to 99.5:0.5, and more preferably 10:90 to 99:1. A mass ratio within this range tends to provide high sensitivity and minimize variation in exposure in the depth direction. The mass ratio is more preferably 30:70 to 98:2, and even more preferably 50:50 to 97:3.

[0457] In the composition of this embodiment, the total amount of the base material (A) and the compound (B) is preferably 50 to 99.4 mass % of the total mass of the solid components, more preferably 55 to 95 mass %, even more preferably 60 to 95 mass %, and particularly preferably 70 to 95 mass %. When the total amount of the base material (A) and the compound (B) is within the above range, the resolution tends to be further improved and the line edge roughness (LER) tends to be further reduced.

[0458] In the composition of this embodiment, the (A) / (B) / (C) / (G) / (E) / (F) mass ratio (mass%) relative to the total mass of solids in the composition of this embodiment is preferably: 1.5 to 99.0 / 0.2 to 96.4 / 0.001 to 49 / 0 to 49 / 0.001 to 49 / 0 to 49, more preferably 5 to 98.5 / 0.5 to 89 / 1 to 40 / 0 to 40 / 0.01 to 10 / 0 to 5, even more preferably 15 to 97.5 / 1 to 69 / 3 to 30 / 0 to 30 / 0.01 to 5 / 0 to 1, and particularly preferably 25 to 96.5 / 1.5 to 50 / 3 to 30 / 0 to 30 / 0.01 to 3 / 0.

[0459] The blending ratio of each component is selected from each range so that the total sum adds up to 100% by mass. This blending ratio tends to result in excellent performance in terms of sensitivity, resolution, developability, etc. "Solid content" refers to the components excluding the solvent, and "total mass of solid content" refers to the sum of the components constituting the composition excluding the solvent, which is 100% by mass.

In particular, for transition metals such as Fe, Ni, Sn, Zn, Cu, Sb, W, and Al, if the residual amount of the metal is 1 ppm or more, there is a concern that the interaction with other compounds may cause denaturation or deterioration of the material over time. Furthermore, if the residual amount of alkali metals or alkalinity metals such as Na, K, Ca, and Mg is 1 ppm or more, the residual metal amount cannot be sufficiently reduced when the compound is used to produce a resin for semiconductor processing, and there is a concern that this may cause defects due to residual metals or performance degradation in the semiconductor manufacturing process, resulting in a decrease in yield.
