The invention provides a preparation method for 9,9-bis[6-(2-hydroxyethoxy)naphthyl]
fluorene with high purity and high
bulk density. The 9,9-bis[6-(2-hydroxyethoxy)naphthyl]
fluorene with high purity and high
bulk density is prepared by condensation of 9,9-bis(2-hydroxylnaphthyl)
fluorene and
ethylene carbonate under an alkaline condition with polar non-protonic solvents like N,N-
dimethylacetamide,N,N-
dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylsulfoxide,
diethylene glycol dimethyl ether,
diethylene glycol diethyl ether,
triethylene glycol dimethyl ether,
triethylene glycol diethyl ether and
polyethylene glycol dimethyl (or diethyl)
ether as reaction accelerators. The 9,9-bis[6-(2-hydroxyethoxy)naphthyl]fluorene has a purity (HPLC) of larger than 99.0%, a
bulk density of larger than 0.4g / cubic
centimeter, a loss on
drying of less than 0.5% (at 120 DEG C, 30 min), and a melt absorption peak at 213 to 222 DEG C. The 9,9-bis[6-(2-hydroxyethoxy)naphthyl]fluorene has a
powder X-
ray diffraction peak (XRPD) spectrum which has a morphology as shown in a figure 3 of the invention and has characteristic
diffraction peaks with 2theta values of 7.7 + / - 0.20, 8.8 + / - 0.20, 12.5 + / - 0.20, 14.3 + / - 0.20, 15.5 + / - 0.20, 17.7 + / - 0.20, 18.7 + / - 0.20, 19.5 + / - 0.20, 20.4 + / - 0.20, 20.9 + / - 0.20, 21.2 + / - 0.20, 22.2 + / - 0.20, 22.7 + / - 0.20, 23.1 + / - 0.20, 24.8 + / - 0.20, 25.4 + / - 0.20, 25.9 + / - 0.20 and 26.7 + / - 0.20.
