The invention belongs to the technical field of fine chemical engineering and material chemistry, and relates to a liquid crystal compound for synthesizing a TFT-LCD (thin film transistor-liquid crystal display), in particular to a greening technology for synthesizing the liquid crystal compound by using a coordination catalysis method.
Background
Many biarylenes have liquid crystalline properties and have been used in TFT-LCDs. The biaryl compound prepared by the classical organic synthesis method has long route, low total yield, poor selectivity and serious pollution. The coordination catalysis has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, good selectivity and the like, and provides an important means for greening organic synthesis. The coordination catalysis method is mostly adopted for the green chemical industry accepted by the world at present.
