Abstract
AbstractNovel oligomeric prepolymers were synthesized by acid‐catalyzed condensation of glycerol with iminodiacetic, azelaic, or succinic acid. The prepolymers were obtained, on average, in 62% yield and were characterized by 13C NMR, 1H NMR, matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization‐time of flight‐mass spectrometry, and gel permeation chromatography. The synthesized oligomers had an average M.W. of 1543 Daltons (average polydispersity (PD)=1.34, average degree of polymerization (DOP)=5.5). Hyperbranching was evident in the oligomers produced when using azelaic acid and succinic acid as co‐monomers with glycerol, whereas the reaction between iminodiacetic acid and glycerol resulted in linear products bearing cyclic urethane structures.
