(1,1'-Biphenyl)-4-carbonitrile, 4'-(nonyloxy)- → 4'-(Nonyloxy)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

In the synthesis of 4'-octyloxybiphenyl-4-caboxylic acid of Example 12, the same hydrolysis as in Example 12 was repeated except that 4'-nonyloxy-4-cyanobiphenyl was used instead of 4'-octyloxy-4-cyanobiphenyl to obtain 4'-nonyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid. This 4'-nonyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid was condensed with 4-(2-methylnonanoyl) phenol in the same manner as in the synthesis of 4-(2-methylnonanoyl) phenyl, 4'-octyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid ester of Example 13 to synthesize 4-(2-methylnonanoyl)phenyl, 4'-nonyloxybiphenyl-4-carboxylic acid ester having the aforementioned physical and chemical properties.
