Abstract:The thermally annealed solid state polymerization of 2,3-dicyano-5,7-dimethyl-6H-1,4-diazepine(A) was studied by 1 H, 13 C, and 15 N CP=MAS solid state NMR spectroscopy, and by a 1 H solution state NMR deuterium exchange experiment of A. Collectively, the NMR data suggests that a tautomeric form of the monomer is responsible for the solid state reactivity of the crystalline monomer. The solid state polymerization of crystalline A proceeds as a heterogeneous decomposition of the crystalline lattice resulting in… Show more
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.
