Abstract
A new highly phenylated diamine, 1,4-bis(4-aminophenyl)-2,3-diphenylnaphthalene, was synthesized in two steps starting from 2,5-bis(4-nitrophenyl)-3,4-diphenylcyclopentadienone. New aromatic polyamides containing tetraphenylnaphthalene unit were prepared by low temperature solution polycondensation of this diamine with various aromatic dicarboxylic acid chlorides. These polyamides had inherent viscosities of 0.45—0.82 dlg−1. Polyamides with m-phenylene moiety and flexible connecting group were soluble in various organic solvents such as N,N-dimethylacetamide and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, but those with rigid symmetric structures were soluble in only hot N,N-dimethylacetamide and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. The glass transition temperature of the polyamides ranged from 268 to 366°C, and the 10% weight loss temperatures were above 500°C in air.
