A process for the preparation of a polysubstituted-triphenylamine derivative represented by the following general formula (4):
- wherein R7, R8, and R9 may be the same or different and each represent a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a phenoxy group, an aryl group, which aryl group may have a substituent group, or a halogen atom;
- and Y represents a formyl group, a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a phenoxy group, an aryl group, which aryl group may have a substituent group, or a halogen atom, which comprises reacting a triphenylamine derivative represented by the following general formula (3):
- wherein R7, R8, and R9 are as defined above with a Vilsmeier reagent prepared from a halogenating reagent and an N-substituted formamide in the presence of a catalyst which is an acid selected from the group consisting of a Lewis acid and/or a protonic acid to form a reaction product, and then subjecting the reaction product to hydrolysis with an alkaline aqueous solution, wherein the catalyst is added separately from the triphenylamine derivative of general formula (3) and the Vilsmeier reagent.
