Isophthaloyl chloride → (1,1'-Biphenyl)-2,3'-diol

Participants

Reaction Steps

A polyester of 1,1-bis-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-1-phenyl-ethane (diphenol B) and an equimolar mixture of isophthaloyl chloride and terephthaloychloride were reacted in a two-phase boundary surface to form a diphenol B polyester with an η inh.=0.76 dl/g. 1.9 kg of the said polyester were dissolved in 8.1 mg of 1,2-dichloroethane to obtain 10 kg of a spinning solution with a FB viscosity of 63 s/400 mm. The spinning procedure of Example 1 was repeated with the spinning solution to obtain individual fibers with the following properties: titer of 2.5 den; elasticity modulus of 1.41×106N/cm2 ; tensile strength of 1.03×104N/cm2 (0.97 g/den); and tear elongation of 7.8%.
