Abstract
Two novel methacrylate derivatives containing nucleic acid bases (uracil, thymine) were synthesized, and the copolymers of styrene and the new monomers were also prepared. The new monomers are more reactive than styrene. The synthesized copolymers were characterized by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, GPC and elementary analysis, and the result testifies the existence of the nucleic acid bases in the copolymers. The adsorption of phenol and 2-aminopyridine to copolymers in hexane was performed, and the result shows that much higher adsorption efficiency is achieved for 2-aminopyridine than that for phenol, suggesting that much stronger interaction between the copolymer and 2-aminopyridine than that between the copolymer and phenol. The interaction between the copolymers and phenol, 2-aminopyridine was studied by FTIR and the result shows that hydrogen bonding is taken place between the copolymers and phenol, 2-animopyridine.
