Dihydroxydiphenylcycloalkanes, their preparation and their use for the preparation of high molecular polycarbonates

摘要

The present invention relates to dihydroxydiphenylcycloalkanes of the formula (I) …… in which R<1> and R<2>, independently of one another, are hydrogen, halogen, C1-C8-alkyl, C5-C6-cycloalkyl, C6-C10-aryl or C7-C12-aralkyl, m is an integer from 4 to 7, R<3> and R<4>, independently of one another and individually selectable for each X, are hydrogen or C1-C6-alkyl, and X is carbon, with the proviso that, on at least one atom X, R<3> and R<4> are simultaneously alkyl, to a process for their preparation, to the use of the diphenols of the formula (I) for the preparation of high-molecular-weight polycarbonates, to these polycarbonates and to their use, for example for the production of films.
