Abstract: The present application generally relates to several processes for the preparation of (6R,10S)-10-{4-[5-chloro-2-(4-chloro-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenyl]-6-oxo-1(6H)-pyrimidinyl}-1-(difluoromethyl)-6-methyl-1,4,7,8,9,10-hexahydro-11,15-(metheno)pyrazolo[4,3-b][1,7]diazacyclotetradecin-5(6H)-one: Compound (I).

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formula (I), which are suitable as monomers for preparing thermoplastic resins having beneficial optical properties and which can be used for producing optical devices. In Formula (I), A1, A2 are selected from mono- or bicyclic aromatic radicals and mono- or bicyclic heteroaromatic radicals; X represents e.g. a single bond, O, NH, CR6R7; Y is e.g. absent or represents a single bond, O, NH, CR8R9; R1, R2 are hydrogen, a radical Ar? or a radical Ra; R3 is Alk, O-Alk?-, O-Alk?-[O-Alk?]o, O—CH2—Ar—C(O)—, O—C(O)—Ar—C(O)— or O-Alk-C(O)—, where in the last five moieties the left O is bound to A1 and A2, respectively; m, n are 0, 1 or 2; o is an integer from 1 to 10; R4, R5 are e.g. selected from CN and a radical Ra; R6, R8 are e.g. selected from hydrogen, a radical Ar? and a radical Ra; R7, R9 are e.g. selected from hydrogen, C1-C4-alkyl and a radical Ar?; Ra is selected from the group consisting of C?C—R11 and Ar—C?C—R11; R11 is e.g.
