Novel tetracarboxylic dianhydride, polyimide resin and method for producing the same, photosensitive resin compositions, patterning process, method for forming cured film, interlayer insulating film, surface protective film, and electronic parts

Abstract

The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances herein. An object of the present invention is to provide: a tetracarboxylic dianhydride which can lead to a polyimide usable as a base resin of a photosensitive resin composition capable of forming a fine pattern and obtaining high resolution without impairing excellent characteristics such as mechanical strength and adhesiveness; a polyimide resin obtained by using the tetracarboxylic dianhydride; and a method for producing the polyimide resin. The tetracarboxylic dianhydride is shown by the following general formula (1).
