Abstract

Bis-o-aminophenols, which carry on at least one of their hydroxyl groups a tert-butoxy-carbonyl group, can be reacted with dicarboxylic acids to give the corresponding poly-o-hydroxyamides. Following cyclization to the polybenzoxazole, these polymers have a lower dielectric constant than compounds prepared from corresponding poly-o-hydroxyamides which do not carry any tert-butoxycarbonyl group.
