The present invention will be described in more detail below:
DBBP, which is a raw material of the present invention, is industrially produced in a high purity and a high yield by a reaction of biphenyl and bromine; methanol containing 5 to 25% by weight of water as a reaction solvent,
At least one selected from ethanol and propanol (normal and iso) is used in a weight ratio of 10 to 10 of the DBBP.
Use 30 times the amount. When butanol is used, both the reaction rate and the selectivity are unfavorable. When the water content is less than 5% by weight, the reaction rate becomes insufficient, and when it exceeds 25% by weight, the selectivity becomes insufficient. If the amount used is less than 10 times, the selectivity becomes insufficient, and if it exceeds 30 times, the reaction rate and reaction efficiency decrease; the amount of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or a mixture thereof is
A molar ratio of 2 to 5 times that of DBBP is suitable. If the amount is less than 2 times, the reaction rate will be low, and if it exceeds 5 times, the selectivity will not be sufficient; since the amount of the reaction solvent and alkali used for DBBP is set within a certain range, the initial reaction of the alkali in the solvent Concentration naturally falls within a certain range;
As the copper compound of the catalyst, oxides, halides, inorganic or organic acid salts are used. The amount used is 0.5-15% on a molar basis of DBBP; the reaction is carried out under pressure and the reaction temperature is 150-200 ° C. If the temperature is lower than 150 ° C., the reaction rate is not sufficient, and if it exceeds 200 ° C., the selectivity is lowered; the reaction time is usually 2 to 25 hours; the reaction is preferably performed in a non-oxidizing system, for example, in a nitrogen atmosphere; After the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture is cooled, the alcohol content is distilled off, an appropriate extraction solvent is added and the extraction treatment is carried out, the aqueous phase is acidified to precipitate the desired product, and if necessary, recrystallized and purified from a suitable solvent. .
