Abstract
The structural features of the grafting of maleic anhydride onto low-molecular-weight compounds have been elucidated using several spectroscopic and analytical techniques. Conclusive evidence for the occurrence of singly grafted anhydride residues in multiply grafted products has been established using 2,3-13C2 labeled maleic anhydride. In homogeneous solution, at the low concentrations of maleic anhydride employed, there is little evidence for oligomeric or polymeric grafts to dodecane, pristane, or squalane. The results suggest that isothermal grafting of maleic anhydride to hydrocarbon polymers should also lead to a predominance of single grafts. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
