Abstract

Heterocyclic bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cycloalkanes, as illustrated by 4,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)thiopyran and the corresponding acetylated piperidine, may be prepared by the reaction of bisphenol A or a similar compound with the corresponding thiopyranone or piperidone. The thio compound may be oxidized to the corresponding sulfone. Polycarbonates prepared from said heterocyclic bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)cycloalkanes have high glass transition temperatures and are expected to be ductile.
