4,4’-Oxybis(benzoic acid)(Ⅰ)is an important monomer for making synthetic resin,heat resistant filmand liquid crystal fiber,etc.It has been synthesized either by the oxidation of 4,4’-dimethyl diphenylether,or by the electrophilic substitution of diphenyl ether,these substituents introduced into thebenzene ring can be further transformed into carboxylic groups.Diphenyl ethers are usually prepared fromphenols and halobenzenes through Ullmann resction.Due to the high reaction temerature(usually above200℃),long time heating and the formation of isomers,it is difficult to obtain pure products in highyields.
