Abstract
The results for efficient hydroxy-functionalization of polymeric organolithium compounds in hydrocarbon solution at room temperature are described using oxirane, methyloxirane, ethyloxirane, phenyloxirane and oxetane. Conditions for quantitative hydroxy-functionalization were observed for all oxiranes except methyloxirane, which undergoes significant proton transfer from the methyl group. The use of protected hydroxy-functionalized alkyllithium initiators to prepare α,ω-heterotelechelic polymers with ω-amino and ω-carboxy groups is described.
