Summary
The rate of radical copolymerization of optically active acryloyl-d-phenylglycine methyl ester (APM) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) or with methyl acrylate(MA) was dilatometrically measured in optically active solvents, D-or L-ethyl mandelate. The copolymerization rate of D-monomer in D-solvent was higher than that in L-solvent. The origin of the difference in the copolymerization rate was discussed using data of UV and 13C-NMR chemical shift and spin lattice relaxation time, T1, and the asymmetric solvent effect was concluded to be due to the difference in the interaction between propagating radical and solvent.
