In the structural formula (2), especially 2,2 ', 3,3', 5,
5'-hexamethyl- [1,1'-biphenyl] -4,4'-diol is preferred. When a divalent phenol that does not have a substituent at the 2-position (R2, R3 in structural formula (2)) is used as the raw material, the oxidation rate of the divalent phenol itself is very high, It becomes diphenoquinone and precipitates from the reaction solution. As a result, the homopolymerization of the monovalent phenol represented by the structural formula (3) is prioritized and progresses until the growth of the phenylene ether having a phenolic hydroxyl group only at one terminal is precipitated from the reaction solution. Therefore, a bifunctional phenylene ether soluble in methyl ethyl ketone cannot be efficiently synthesized. For example, as a divalent phenol having no substituent at the 2-position, 3,3 ', 5,5'-tetramethyl- [1,1'-biphenyl] -4,
4'-diol can be mentioned, but when synthesized using this, the GPC spectrum of the precipitate is as shown in (Fig. 1), confirming the formation of a high molecular weight product. On the other hand, the second position (R in structural formula (2)
2) as a divalent phenol having a substituent in 2, 2 ', 3,
3 ', 5,5'-hexamethyl- [1,1'-biphenyl] -4,4'-diol can be mentioned. GPC spectrum change during the reaction when using this divalent phenol (Fig. 2) , Transition of average molecular weight
From (FIG. 3), the molecular weight distribution of the obtained bifunctional phenylene ether is almost the same throughout the reaction, and formation of a high molecular weight compound is not observed. Therefore, you can efficiently
It is possible to obtain an oligomer of functional phenylene ether.

Therefore, in order to solve the problems of the present invention, it is necessary to moderate the oxidation rate of the divalent phenol itself, and it is essential to have a substituent at the 2-position (R2 in the structural formula (2)).

[Chemical 5] In the structural formula (3), R1 may be the same or different,
It is a halogen atom or an alkyl group having 6 or less carbon atoms or a phenyl group. R3 may be the same or different and is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group having 6 or less carbon atoms or a phenyl group. In particular, it is preferable to use one having a substituent at the 2- and 6-positions alone, or to use together with this one having a substituent at the 3- or 3,5-position. More preferably,
2,6-Dimethylphenol is better when used alone and 2,6-dimethylphenol when used in combination
Dimethylphenol and 2,3,6-trimethylphenol are good. When using a monovalent phenol having a substituent at the 3-position or the 3,5-position in combination, the ratio is 70 m of the total monovalent phenol.
It is preferably ol% or less. When using in combination with monovalent phenol having a substituent at the 3-position or the 3,5-position, if more than 70 mol% of the total monovalent phenol, it becomes a crystalline compound and is insoluble in methyl ethyl ketone even with an average molecular weight of about 1000. Become. It should be noted that, compared to the case of 2,6-dimethylphenol alone
When 2,6-dimethylphenol and 2,3,6-trimethylphenol are mixed, a lower molecular weight oligomer is obtained. This is because the methyl group at the 3-position of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol suppresses the polymerization and suppresses the formation of high molecular weight products.

Next, the solvent used in the present invention will be described. In the present invention, a ketone solvent and an alcohol solvent, which are considered to be poor solvents in oxidative polymerization and whose proportions that can be used in conventional oxidative polymerization of PPE are limited, can be used in the present invention. Conventionally, this type of reaction produces a polymer that is difficult to dissolve in an organic solvent, so it was not possible to increase the ratio of the ketone or alcohol of the reaction solvent used, but the product of the present invention has the above-mentioned chart (Fig. 2). As shown in), since it is only a low molecular weight oligomer, it was easily dissolved in ketone and alcohol, and the range of usable solvents was greatly expanded. These may be used alone or in combination with conventional solvents such as aromatic hydrocarbon solvents such as toluene, benzene and xylene, halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as ethylene chloride, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. Examples of the ketone solvent include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, diethyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone, and examples of the alcohol solvent include methanol, ethanol, butanol, propanol, methyl propylene diglycol, diethylene glycol ethyl ether, butyl propylene. Examples thereof include glycol and propyl propylene glycol, but are not limited thereto. The effect of forming an oligomer having a relatively low molecular weight and a sharp molecular weight distribution, which is the object of the present invention, is particularly remarkable when a ketone solvent is used. Furthermore, the solvent used is most preferably methyl ethyl ketone alone or a mixed solvent containing methyl ethyl ketone because of the solubility of the divalent phenol as the raw material.

The reaction temperature in the production method of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it does not fall within the explosion limit of the solvent used, but is preferably 25 to 50 ° C. Since the oxidative polymerization is an exothermic reaction, it is difficult to control the temperature above 50 ° C and the molecular weight is difficult to control. Below 25 ° C, it falls into the range of explosion limit and stable production cannot be performed.

Next, the phenol concentration in the production method of the present invention will be described. The concentration of the divalent phenol represented by the structural formula (2) is preferably 2 to 20 wt% with respect to the dropped solvent. If it is 20 wt% or more, the divalent phenol may not be completely dissolved in the solvent. On the other hand, if it is less than 2 wt%, the reaction rate of the polymerization will decrease. Further, the concentration of the monovalent phenol represented by the structural formula (3) is preferably 6 to 50 wt% with respect to the solvent.

The molar ratio of the divalent phenol represented by the structural formula (2) to the monovalent phenol represented by the structural formula (3) in the production method of the present invention is in the range of 1: 1 to 1:10. preferable. Particularly, 1: 2 to 1: 8 is preferable. Within this range, homopolymerization of monohydric phenol is unlikely to occur, and it is possible to control the molecular weight. When the ratio of the divalent phenol shown in structural formula (2) and the monovalent phenol shown in structural formula (3) is less than 1: 2, the amount of divalent phenol shown in structural formula (2) remains large.

The manufacturing apparatus and manufacturing method of the present invention will be described. A vertical reactor equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, an air inlet tube, and a baffle was charged with a copper catalyst, an amine, and a solvent.
The mixture is stirred at ℃, and a mixed solution of divalent phenol and monovalent phenol dissolved in a solvent in advance is added dropwise while bubbling air. Drip time from 50 minutes to 210
The range of minutes is preferred. If the drip time is not in this range,
The dispersion of the molecular weight distribution of the obtained oligomer becomes large.
Furthermore, it is preferable to carry out stirring for 5 minutes to 5 hours after the completion of dropping. Even if the mixture is stirred for 5 hours or more, the molecular weight does not increase further, so the reaction should be terminated.

The above results are summarized in Table 1. Example 1,
The number-average molecular weight and the weight-average molecular weight are increased by increasing the molar ratio of the dihydric phenol from 2, 3 or more, and the bifunctional oligomer having a desired molecular weight distribution can be obtained by changing the molar ratio. From the results of Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, biphenyl phenol "3,3 ', 5,5'-tetramethyl- [1,1'-biphenyl]-having no substituent at the 3-position of divalent phenol" When 4,4'-diol "is used as a raw material, an oligomer having an average molecular weight of 5000 or more is produced, and a bifunctional phenylene ether soluble in methyl ethyl ketone cannot be efficiently synthesized.

That is, having a substituent at the 3-position of the dihydric phenol is essential for efficiently synthesizing a bifunctional phenylene ether soluble in methyl ethyl ketone. From the results of Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, when di-n-butylamine is used as the amine, an oligomer having a sharper molecular weight distribution is obtained when pyridine is used. 2,6-Dimethylphenol and 2, from the results of Example 2 and Example 4 than when using 2,6-dimethylphenol alone in monovalent phenol
Lower molecular weight oligomers are obtained when 3,6-trimethylphenol is mixed. This is because the methyl group at the 3-position of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol suppresses the polymerization and suppresses the formation of polymer.
