Summary
The synthesis of a monodisperse macromolecular (\(\overline {Mn} \)=850) diisocyanate was done in three steps with an averall yield of 80%. The first one consist of the addition of the dithiol HS-(CH2)2O(CH2)2SH to undecylenic acid, the diacid obtained[(HO-CO-(CH2)10-S-(CH2)2]-O is then transformed to the acid dichloride by the action of thionyl chloride (SOCl2), finally the acid dichloride is transformed to diisocyanate[OCN-(CH2)12-S-(CH2)2]2-O by CURTIUS reaction.
We not that the product is cristalline and its purity and that of the intermediates were determined by 1H NMR.
