Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4'-octyloxy-3,3'-difluorobiphenol (0.1 mol, obtained by coupling 3-fluoro-4-octyloxyphenyl boronic acid with 4-benzyloxy-3-fluoro-brombenzene followed by hydrogenolytic cleavage of the benzylic ether), 1-bromooctane (0.12 mol), potassium carbonate (30 g) and butanone (125 ml) is heated under reflux and stirred for 20 hrs. After cooling the reaction mixture is filtered and the filtrate evaporated off, distillation under reduced pressure affords the required product, m.p. 84°.
