Abstract
Experimented to a condensation reaction of phenol and Anthracene-9-carbox aldehyde. It was confirmed that this is not a condensation reaction of phenol and aldehyde is generally known reaction. The resulting compound (BIP －ANT) was identified as bisphenol compounds having an anthracene structure in the main chain. If appropriate reaction conditions, it is possible to extract the intermediate had a hydroanthracene structure. BIP－ANT is a compound having a high refractive index and fluorescence. It was also confirmed to show a variety of reactivity due to the bisphenol structure. Polymers obtained from BIP－ANT was confirmed that has a high refractive index and high heat resistance.
