-
, (2021/12/31)
A method of making dianhydride includes contacting a N-Substituted diimide with a carboxylic acid and substituted or unsubstituted dimethyl sulfoxide in an aqueous medium to provide a reaction mixture including tetra acid, triacid, imide diacid and diimide along with substituted or unsubstituted acetic acid, dimethyl sulfoxide and their derivatives. The method includes the isolation of tetra acid by precipitation in water followed by centrifuge or filtration. The tetra acid is converted into the corresponding dianhydride. The dianhydride prepared by the method are also described as precursor to make polyetherimide.
