Abstract:ABSTRACT:The copolymerization of N-butyl maleimide (BMI) and ethyl ␣-phenyl acrylate (EPA) was successfully carried out without an initiator. A high alternating tendency was observed. The Q, e values were derived by Alfrey-Price equations: Q ϭ 0.09, e ϭ 0.81 for BMI and Q ϭ 0.21, e ϭ Ϫ0.5 for EPA, and the monomer reactivity ratios were r BMI ϭ 0.15 Ϯ 0.01 and r EPA ϭ 0.18 Ϯ 0.08, respectively. In this system BMI was donor and EPA was acceptor. The maximum copolymerization rate and molecular weight appeared at … Show more
“…Synthesis of copolymers (13)(14)(15)(16)(17) was performed by following the same procedure steps used in preparation of homopolymers (8-12) except using of equal weights of both Schiff base (3-7) and acrylonitrile which were dissolved together in THF solvent in presence of AIBN initiator. The obtained copolymer was filtered and purified by dissolving in THF followed by precipitation from methanol.…”

“…Thus the prepared maleimide monomers (3-7) were introduced in free radical chain growth copolymerization with acrylonitrile producing new copolymaleimides (13)(14)(15)(16)(17) with new properties [15]. The incorporation of acrylonitrile units in polymeric chains of the new copolymers (13)(14)(15)(16)(17) exhibit them good solubility in most organic solvents but it was noticeable that their softening points in general are higher than those belong to the corresponding homopolymers and this is due to the presence of polar cyano groups(C N) in acrylonitrile units which increased inter chain forces leading to increase softening points.…”

“…Thus in the present work we try to improve polymaleimides properties by two ways the first one involved introducing of bulk Schiff base moieties as pendant groups in polymeric chains of polymaleimides ,while the second way involved introducing of maleimides substituted with Schiff bases into copolymerization with acrylonitrile since copolymerization is the most efficient method for modifying polymer properties [14][15][16][17].…”
A series of new maleimide monomers substituted with Schiff base moieties were synthesized via acid-catalyzed condensation of 3-(N-maleimidyl)phenyl hydrazide with aromatic aldehydes and ketones. The newly synthesized monomers were introduced in free radical chain growth homopolymerization producing five new polymaleimides with pendent Schiff base moieties .The new monomers were introduced also in free radical chain growth copolymerization with acrylonitrile producing new five copolymaleimides containing pendent Schiff base moieties. The new homopolymers and copolymers are of great importance since incorporation of bulky Schiff base moieties in their repeating units exhibit them better solubility and processing properties which made them suitable for a variety of important applications.

An unusual Michael addition between 2-aryl-substituted acrylates and 3,3-dimethoxypropanenitrile which leads, depending on the reaction temperature (60 or -78 degrees C, respectively), to a 4-methoxymethylene-substituted 4-cyanobutyric ester or to a 4-dimethoxymethyl 4-cyanobutyric ester is described. These compounds can be subsequently converted to 4-unsubstituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines upon treatment with a guanidine system under microwave irradiation.
