Polyphenoxy Radicals: Synthesis and Homo-Polymerization of 2-(3,5-Dl-t-Butyl-4-Hydroxyphenyl)Isobutyl Methacrylate
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
We evaluated the chemical stability of various polyphenoxy radicals prepared through the modified synthetic methods. The monomeric 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl derivatized olefins and methacrylates were prepared in a multistep synthesis starting from 2,6-di-t-butylphenol. These monomers were polymerized in the presence of radical initiators at the refluxing temperature of aromatic solvents under an inert atmosphere. The most stable polyradicals were found to be highly hindered poly(DBPM) radicals.
