Adamantane derivatives and process for producing the same
View Patent ↗The present invention provides an adamantane derivative (I) having a structure represented by the general formula (I); an adamantane derivative (II) having a structure represented by the general formula (II); and a process for producing those adamantane derivatives. An alcohol form of an adamantane compound is reacted with a sulfonyl compound to obtain the adamantane derivative (II), which is then reacted with an alcohol to obtain the adamantane derivative (I). The adamantane derivative (I) and adamantane derivative (II) each having the structure represented by the general formula (I) and general formula (II), respectively, is a novel adamantyl(meth)acrylate compound and useful as a monomer for functional resins such as a photosensitive resin in the field of photolithography.

where R represents a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or a CF 3 group, R 2 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, an alkylphenyl group, or a CF 3 group, Ys each represent an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, or a hydroxyl group, or two Ys are coupled to form ═O, and multiple Ys may be identical to or different from each other, k represents an integer of 0 to 14, and m and n each independently represent an integer of 0 to 4.
2. The adamantane derivative according to claim 1 , wherein R 2 represents a methyl group.
3. A process for producing an adamantane derivative having a structure represented by the general formula (II):
where R represents a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or a CF 3 group, R 2 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, an alkylphenyl group, or a CF 3 group, Ys each represent an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, or a hydroxyl group, or two Ys are coupled to form ═O, and multiple Ys may be identical to or different from each other, k represents an integer of 0 to 14, and m and n each independently represent an integer of 0 to 4, the process being characterized by comprising reacting an alcohol form of an adamantane compound represented by a general formula (III):
where R, Ys, k, m, and n each have the same meaning as that described above, with a sulfonyl compound represented by a general formula (IV):
where R 2 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, an alkylphenyl group, or a CF 3 group, and X represents a hydroxyl group or a halogen atom.
4. The process for producing an adamantane derivative according to claim 3 , wherein the alcohol form of the adamantane compound represented by the general formula (III) and the sulfonyl compound represented by the general formula (IV) are reacted with each other in an organic solvent having a dielectric constant at 20° C. of 8 or less.
5. The process for producing an adamantane derivative according to claim 3 , wherein the sulfonyl compound represented by the general formula (IV) comprises methanesulfonyl halide.
6. The process for producing an adamantane derivative according to claim 3 , wherein, after the alcohol form of the adamantane compound represented by the general formula (III) and the sulfonyl compound represented by the general formula (IV) have been reacted with each other, a reaction product is separated from a liquid after completion of the reaction, a poor solvent for a by-product polymer in the reaction product is added to the reaction product, and a precipitate of the by-product polymer to be produced is removed.
