The specific synthetic route is shown in figure 3, and the preparation method sequentially carries out esterification reaction, reduction reaction, reaction with toluene sulfonyl chloride under alkaline condition and reaction with formative reagent alkyl halogenated magnesium by taking trans-alkyl cyclohexyl formic acid as a raw material to finally prepare the dicyclohexyl liquid crystal monomer. In the preparation method, the adopted raw material trans-alkyl cyclohexyl formic acid is more expensive, meanwhile, the synthetic route of the whole preparation method is longer, the overall cost is higher, and the yield of the finally prepared dicyclohexyl liquid crystal monomer is lower.
Another preparation method of dicyclohexyl liquid crystal monomer in the related art, the specific synthetic route is shown in fig. 4, and the preparation method takes 1- (4- (4-alkyl cyclohexyl) phenyl) alkyl-1-ketone as a raw material, and sequentially carries out catalytic hydrogenation reaction, isomerization reaction, oxidation reaction and reduction reaction to finally prepare the dicyclohexyl liquid crystal monomer. In the preparation method, the pressure required by the catalytic hydrogenation reaction is high, and the temperature required by the reduction reaction is high. In the whole, the preparation method has higher requirements on the used equipment, and the synthesis route of the whole preparation method is also longer, so that the preparation method is not the preferred method for preparing the dicyclohexyl liquid crystal monomer.
