Novel alkyl ring-substituted t-butyl phenylcyanoacrylates, RPhCH=C(CN)CO2C(CH3)3 (where R is H, 2-methyl, 3-methyl, 4-methyl, 2-ethyl, 4-ethyl, 4-propyl, 4-i-propyl, 4-butyl, 4-i-butyl) were prepared and copolymerized with styrene. The acrylates were synthesized by the piperidine catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation of ring-substituted benzaldehydes and t-butyl cyanoacetate, and characterized by CHN analysis, IR, 1H and 13C NMR. All the ethylenes were copolymerized with styrene in solution with radical initiation (ABCN) at 70C. The compositions of the copolymers were calculated from nitrogen analysis. |
