A method of purifying raw methanol obtained in chemical pulping, wherein heavy oil is admixed with the raw methanol to prevent precipitation, and the methanol mixture is distilled or evaporated to recover the methanol. The heavy oil is formed by mixing and heating raw methanol obtained from a side stream of chemical hardwood pulping with an acidic aqueous solution to vaporize low boiling point sulfurous compounds and provide acidified raw methanol. The acidified raw methanol is separated into a liquid top phase, a liquid aqueous middle phase, and a liquid bottom phase. The liquid bottom phase is extracted to obtain the heavy oil.

The present disclosure belongs to the field of organic materials, and relates to an organic compound, and an electronic component and electronic device having same. The organic compound has a structure represented by a formula 1, and when the organic compound is applied in an organic electroluminescent device, the performance of the device can be significantly improved.
