FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of producing 5,5'-(2,3,7,8-bis-(9H,10H-anthracene-9,10-diiyl)pyrene-1,6-diiyl)bis(2-dodecylthiophene), which includes reacting 1,6-dibromopyrene with 2-dodecyl-5-tributylstannyl thiophene by a Stille method to obtain a first intermediate product 1,6-bis(5-dodecylthiophen-2-yl)pyrene, bromation of the latter to obtain a second intermediate product 5,5'-(3,8-dibromopyrene-1,6-diiyl)bis(2-dodecylthiophene), heating said product with anthracene and sodium amide in an argon atmosphere.
EFFECT: novel method for synthesis of a derivative of hexane-substituted pyrene using a Stille cross-coupling reaction and highly reactive arine intermediates, which ultimately results in synthetic availability of derivatives of hexane-substituted pyrene, which can be used in scientific research laboratories, as well at home and in agriculture as a monomolecular optical sensor for detecting nitroaromatic compounds.
