Polyether ether ketone decomposition method and novel substance made by using decomposition product obtained by this decomposition method as raw material

Abstract

[Problem] The present invention provides a polyether ether ketone decomposition method for efficiently decomposing polyether ether ketone, and a novel compound synthesized by using a decomposition product obtained by the polyether ether ketone decomposition method as a raw material. [Solution] A polyether ether ketone decomposition method for decomposing polyether ether ketone, including a first reaction step of reacting the polyether ether ketone with a base and at least one of an alkanethiol, an aromatic mercaptan, sodium sulfide, and elemental sulfur in an organic solvent. Polyether ether ketone can be efficiently decomposed by this polyether ether ketone decomposition method.
