Summary
When N-acryloyl-L-valine(ALV) was photo-polymerized in ethyl acetate, the resulting polymerization mixture was found to contain the living propagating radical of ALV. Synthesis of block copolymers was attempted by using the reaction of living poly(ALV) radical with some vinyl monomers. The resulting block copolymers were characterized by IR spectroscopy, dynamic thermogravimetry and pyrolysis gas chromatography.
