Abstract1‐Fluorovinyl methyl ketone, a new vinyl monomer, was prepared by dehydration of 1‐fluoro‐2‐hydroxyethyl methyl ketone with phosphoric acid or boric anhydride. The monomer was stabilized with anhydrous ammonia during preparation and storage. Homopolymers of 1‐fluorovinyl methyl ketone were prepared with free‐radical initiators in bulk, in solution, and in buffered emulsions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
