Copolymerization of 1-(Vinyloxyalkoxy)-2,3-epoxypropanes with Vinyl Chloride

Binary radical polymerization of vinyl chloride with 1-(vinyloxyalkoxy)-2,3-epoxypropanes in acetone and dimethyl sulfoxide was studied. The copolymerization constants and the microstructural parameters of the resulting copolymers were calculated.

Copolymerization of N-Vinyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole with Acrylamide

Radical copolymerization of N-vinyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole with acrylamide in dimethylformamide was studied, and the relative activity constants of the monomers were determined.

Copolymerization of acrylic acid amides with alkenyl halides

The binary radical copolymerization of acrylic acid amides (acrylamide and N-cyclohexen-1-ylacrylamide) with alkenyl halides (vinyl chloride, vinyl bromide, and allyl chloride) has been studied. The constants of relative activity of the monomers used are calculated. For the systems under investigation, the occurrence of dehydrochlorination of a polymer chain and protonation of a carbonyl group occur is confirmed. Allyl chloride shows the most pronounced tendency toward dehydrochlorination, while in the case of vinyl chloride, this tendency is the least distinct. The polymer-analogous transformations result in copolymers containing polyene fragments and units of ammonium or oxonium amide salts.
