Abstract
AbstractThe behavior of the readily available cis‐ (1) and trans‐ (2) 4, 5‐epoxy‐2‐pentenals toward classical cationic, anionic, and free radical initiators has been examined. Only the cationic polymerization of 1 gave soluble polymer of moderate molecular weights. This polymer possessed predominantly the cyclopolymerized furanose structure 12. Cationic initiation of 2 and anionic initiation of both 1 and 2 gave only crosslinked materials, and free radical initiators with 1 and 2 gave no polymer.
