Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a new benzoic acid derivative becoming a raw material for producing a fluoran compound useful as a coloring compound for recording material. CONSTITUTION:A benzoic acid derivative shown by formula I (R is group shown by formula II, formula III or formula IV) such as 2-[2'hydroxy-4'-(N-ethyl- methylamino) benzoyl] benzoic acid shown by formula V. The compound shown by formula I is obtained by reacting a corresponding 3-aminophenol derivative, namely 3-(Nethyl-N-methylamino)phenol, 3-(N-isopropyl-N-methylamino) phenol or 3-(N-isopropyl-N-isobutylamino) phenol with phthalic anhydride.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, a color reaction between a colorless or light-colored electron-donating compound (color-forming compound) and an organic or inorganic electron-accepting substance (color developer) is used. BACKGROUND ART Methods for recording information transmitted through the medium of external energy include pressure-sensitive recording, heat-sensitive recording, and energized heat-sensitive recording. In these recording methods, fluoran compounds are widely used as color-forming compounds. As benzoic acid derivatives serving as raw materials for fluoran compounds, for example, compounds of formula [IIa] and formula [IIb] (chemical formula 2) are known.

embedded image However, the compound of formula [IIIa] has the disadvantage of extremely low solubility in capsule oil when used as a pressure-sensitive recording material, and when used as a heat-sensitive recording material, for example, bisphenol A etc. When mixed with a color developer, it itself develops a gray or black-gray color, and when it is applied to paper, it has the disadvantage that only paper colored gray or black-gray (background stain) is obtained.

[0005] Furthermore, the compound [IIIb] cannot be used as a heat-sensitive recording material because its color development temperature is too high, so it cannot be said to have sufficient performance to meet the demand for higher speed and higher density recording. There is a strong desire for color-forming compounds that quickly develop color at lower temperatures and raw material compounds for producing such compounds.
