Patent ID: 7943284

Claim:
A compound which is a non-polymer having a molecular weight of 500 to 3000, and is decomposed under the action of an acid to produce two or more molecules of a decomposition product having a molecular weight of 200 or more, wherein the compound is represented by the following general formula (A-1) or (A-2): (wherein R 1 and R 2 are each independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, or a halogenated alkyl group; R 3 and R 4 are each independently a group containing at least two cyclic groups including at least one aromatic monocyclic group; 1 and m are each independently an integer of 1 to 3; n is an integer of 1 to 3; and X is an (n+1)-valent organic group) (wherein R 5 to R 8 are each independently an alkyl group or a halogenated alkyl group; R 9 and R 10 are each independently a group containing at least two cyclic groups including at least one aromatic monocyclic group; 1′, and m′ are each independently an integer of 1 to 3; n′ is an integer of 1 to 3; and Y is an (n′+1)-valent organic group).
