Abstract
A procedure was developed for preparing resorcinolpyromellitein [3,3,7,7-tetrakis(4-hydroxy-2,2ʹ-oxydiphenyl)pyromellitide] by acylation of resorcinol with pyromellitic dianhydride using tin tetrachloride as a catalyst (120–210°С, 30 h, reactant ratio pyromellitic dianhydride : SnCl4 : resorcinol = 1.0 : 2.5 : 5.0). The structure of the target product was proved by elemental analysis, thin-layer chromatography, UV and IR spectroscopy, 1H NMR spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and high-performance liquid chromatography with mass-spectrometric detection. The synthesized product exhibits increased hydrophilicity and imparts fluorescence properties to aqueous solutions when dissolved in a small amount (5 × 10–4 wt %), which allows it to be recommended as a chemical marker in tracer exploration of oil strata at oil fields.
