Abstract

Abstract In accordance with a preferred embodiment of this invention, an alkylene-linked dixylyl compound having the following structural formula is synthesized, ##STR1## wherein n may vary from 3 to 18. These compounds may be readily oxidized and dehydrated to form the corresponding alkylene-linked dianhydride which is useful as a precursor in the formation of alkylene-linked polyimide compounds and as a cross-linking or hardening agent in many curable polymer systems such as the epoxy resins.
