摘要：Objective: Development of new electronic devices with applications in computer science as well as new medical devices pushed the researcher to find new technologies. Based on those new techniques we have designed and synthesized compounds with possible application in the field of advanced materials. Material and method: Compounds were analyzed by TLC and NMR. Routine 1H NMR (250 MHz) spectra were recorded at room temperature in deuterated acetone, unless stated otherwise. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was carried out on aluminum sheets coated with silicagel 60 F254 Merck TLC plates. Results: Starting from commercial available compounds intermediates were obtained in a good yield. 4,4′-(2,4,8,10-tetraoxaspiro[5.5]undecane-3,9-diyl)diphenol was obtained starting from pentaerythritol and p-hydroxy-benzaldehyde in the presence of catalytic amounts of APTS (p-toluensulfonic acid). The product was purified by recrystallization and characterized by NMR spectroscopy. The structure exhibit 2 different signals for equatorial and axial position. Furthermore di, tri and tetra ethylene glycol were obtained by microwave assisted synthesis in a matter of minutes. Compounds were separated by recrystallization. Conclusions: In conclusion, several intermediates were synthesized and characterized from spectroscopic point of view. Further analyses should be carried out and the compounds should be tested as advanced materials.
