Abstract

AbstractThe polymerization of acrylic and methacrylic esters of 2‐allyphenol with different anionic, cationic and coordination catalysts was studied. The polymerization occurs exclusively or predominantly through (meth)acrylic CC double bonds in all the studied cases. With anionic catalysts the allylic groups are not polymerizable and the polymers have linear structure. Polymerization with catalysts based on dialkylaluminum chloride (alone or associated with some metal salts) yields soluble or partially crosslinked polymers, depending on the reaction conditions. The crosslinking is due to the participation of allylic groups in the polymerization reactions. Copolymers of acrylic and methacrylic esters of 2‐allylphenol with styrene, acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate, N‐vinylcarbazole and 1,3‐pentadiene were synthesized by copolymerization in the presence of anionic catalysts and of systems based on dialkylaluminum chloride.
