. Can. J. Cheni. 56. 1562 (1978). A 2% crosslinked divinylbenzene-styrene copolynier, incorporating benzyl alcohol groups, was used to monoprotect the syninietrical diacid chlorides, CIOC(CH2),,COCI (where ti = 2, 3, 4, and 8), terephthaloyl chloride and isophthaloyl chloride. Subsequent reaction of the resulting polymer-bound monoester monoacid chloride with aniline, benzylamine, diniethylaniine, tertbutylamine, or aninionia yielded polymer-bound nionoester nionoaniides, which on base cleavage and esterification gave nionoester nionoaniides in high yield. Borohydride reduction of polymer-bound sebacoyl chloride, terephthaloyl chloride, and isophthaloyl chloride gave their respective polymer-bound monoester nionoalcohols, which on base cleavage from the polynier and esterification yielded the monoester monoalcohols in good yield along with some recovered dimethyl esters of the respective starting diacid chlorides.
