Popis: Cyclic dimer, trimer, and tetramer carbonates of 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane (BPA) were isolated from a mixture of cyclics obtained by hydrolysis/condensation of BPA bischloroformate. The compounds were characterized by 1 H and 13 C NMR, DSC, and FTIR. Single-crystal X-ray structures were solved for the cyclic dimer and tetramer, as well as for diphenyl carbonate. Analysis of the crystal structures reveals that three distinct conformations about the carbonyl carbon are present, two trans-trans forms, one of which is similar to that found in diphenyl carbonate, and a single cis-trans form, seen only in the cyclic dimer
