Nov. 24,  2016  US 2016/0342090 Al  7  (III)  [0073]  In General Formula (III), R$_{4 }$ represents a hydrogen  atom, a methyl group which may have a substituent, or a  halogen atom. B$_{2 }$ represents a single bond or a divalent  organic group. Ar$_{2 }$ represents an arylene group, m represents  an integer of I or more.  [0074]  In General Formula (III), examples of the substitu› ent which may be substituted on a methyl group represented  by R$_{4 }$ include the same substituents as in specific examples  and preferred ranges of the substituent which may be  substituted on R$_{1 }$ in General Formula (I). R$_{4 }$ in General  Formula (II) is preferably a hydrogen atom or a methyl  group, and more preferably a hydrogen atom.  [0075]  In General Formula (III), an arylene group repre› sented by Ar$_{2 }$ is preferably an arylene group having 6 to 18  carbon atoms, more preferably a phenylene group or a  naphthylene group, and most preferably a phenylene group.  [0076]  Further, the arylene group represented by Ar$_{2 }$ may  have a substituent in addition to the group represented by  -(OH)m,  and examples of the substituent include the same  substituents as in specific examples and preferred ranges of  the substituent which may be substituted on R$_{1 }$ in General  Formula (I).  [0077]  m in General Formula (III) is an integer of 1 or  more, preferably an integer in the range of 1 to 5, and more  preferably 1.  [0078]  Further, in General Formula (I), when Ar$_{2 }$ is a  phenylene group and mis 1, the bonding position of -OH  with respect to the benzene ring of Ar$_{2 }$ may be a para› position, a meta-position, or an ortho-position with respect  to the bonding position of B$_{2 }$ with respect to the benzene  ring of Ar$_{2}$ ,  but is preferably a para-position or a meta› position.  [0079]  In General Formula (III), examples of the divalent  organic group represented by B$_{2 }$ are the same as in specific  examples and preferred ranges of the divalent organic group  represented by B in General Formula (II).  [0080]  The repeating unit represented by General Formula  (III) is preferably a repeating unit represented by the fol› lowing General Formula (III’).  (III’)  [0081]  In General Formula (III’), R$_{4 }$ represents a hydrogen  atom, a methyl group which may have a substituent, or a  halogen atom. Ar$_{2 }$ represents an arylene group. m represents  an integer of 1 or more.  [0072]  The polymer compound (A) preferably further  includes a repeating unit represented by the following Gen› eral Formula (III).  [0071]  The content of the repeating unit having a structure  in which a hydrogen atom of a phenolic hydroxyl group is  substituted by a group represented by General Formula (I),  or the repeating unit represented by General Formula (II) or  (II’) in the polymer compound (A) is preferably in the range  of 1 mo! % to 60 mo! %, and more preferably in the range  of 3 mo! % to 40 mo! %, based on the total repeating units  of the polymer compound (A).  [0070]  The above reaction proceeds easily in a known  condition, but the reaction is preferably carried out by  reacting a phenol compound and an olefin compound at a  reaction temperature of -30°  C. to 50°  C., in the absence of  a solvent or in the presence of a solvent such as toluene or  hexane and in the presence of an acid catalyst. Examples of  the acid catalyst to be used include inorganic acids such as  hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and perchloric  acid; organic acids such as methanesulfonic acid, trifluo› romethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, and benze› nesulfonic acid; Lewis acids such as boron trifluoride; and  solid acids such as montmorillonite and amberlite.  [0069]  Further, Ri’ in the above reaction scheme repre› sents a group formed by removing a hydrogen atom from the  hydrocarbon group represented by R$_{1 }$ in General Formula  (II).  [0068]  A$_{1}$ ,  R$_{1}$ ,  R$_{2}$ ,  R$_{3}$ ,  B, and Ar$_{1 }$ in the above reaction  scheme have the same definitions as A$_{1}$ ,  Ri, R$_{2}$ ,  R$_{3}$ ,  B, and  Ar$_{1 }$ in General Formula (II).
