Chemically amplified photoresists (CAP) have been extensively studied for the application to micropatterning.[1] CAP works through the photochemical generation of acidic species and the subsequent acid-catalyzed deprotection of polymer side chains or acid-sensitive dissolution controllers. A novel concept of acid proliferation to improve the photosensitivity of CAP was proposed by Ichimura et al.[2] Our efforts have been focused on the development of acid amplifiers including acetoacetates,[2-3] 1, 2-diol monosulfonates,[4-5] Jo' -sulfonyloxyketals,[6-7] trioxane derivatives[8] and substituted benzyl sulfonates,[9] which liberate areneor alkanesulfonic acids as a result of their autocatalytic acidolysic reactions initiated by photogenerated acids. We report herein the synthesis and evaluation of acid amplifiers bearing two sulfonate groups derived from 1, 4-cyclohexanediol to release fluorinated alkanesulfonic acids with stronger acidity. The novel acid amplifiers substituted with trifluorinated methanesulfonate (1) and ethanesulfonate (2) were readily synthesized in 65% and 42% overall yields by tosylation, trifluoromethaneand trifluoroethanesulfonylation of 1, 4-cyclohexanediol using tosyl chloride, tresyl chloride and triflic anhydride, respectively. [ 10] Note that they both exhibit excellent storage stability at an ambient temperature and that each molecule produces two equimolar amounts of acid species as a consequence of acidolysis reactions. Thermal decomposition of 1 and 2 in CDC13 (180mmol dm3) solutions at 100 °C in the presence of mesitylene as an internal standard were followed by changes of relative intensity of the methin peak in ' H-NMR spectra. The decomposition of both compounds occurred about two or three times faster in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid. The conversion of 1 and 2 took place abruptly after heating for 210 mm and 160 min with sigmoidal time conversion curves, implying that these compounds suffer from autocatalytic acidolysis to
