Thereafter, triphenylphosphine (113 mg), bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride (101 mg) and copper iodide (55 mg) were added. The resulting mixture was pressurized with acetylene (approximative 2 bar) and heated to 80° C. Once the 4-bromophthalic anhydride had been consumed, which was determined by HPLC subsequent to methanolysis, acetic acid (87 ml) was added and the resulting mixture was cooled to 40° C. Mixture was filtered, and resulting solid washed twice with 10 ml acetic acid. The resulting product was dried at <100 mbar at 110° C., providing 7.8 g 5,5′-(ethyne-1,2-diyl)bis(isobenzofuran-1,3-dione) in a yield of 51%. The bromide content of the final product was determined to be 150 ppm by ion chromatography.
