Abstract
A functional monomer, containing a 34-membered monoazacrown ether unit (VACE) as a pendant group has been synthesized by using resorcinol, tetraethylene glycol, p-tolenesulfonyl chloride and 4-vinylbenzyl chloride as starting materials. The product structure was characterized by means of FT-IR,1H-NMR, EA and MS. Free radical homopolymerized VACE or copolymerized VACE with styrene (ST) by the conventional radical initiator 2,2′-azobis (isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) in toluene solution to afford corresponding polymers. The reactivity ratio of VACE and ST, determined by Fineman-Ross method, gave values 0.6 for VACE, and 1.4 for ST, respectively.
