Özet

The polymerization of n-butyl vinyl ether (BVE), cyclohexene oxide (CHO) and 3,4-epoxycyclohexyl (methyl) -3',4'-epoxycyclohexane carboxylate (EEC) was initiated upon UV irradiation (lambda(inc) > 300 nm) of dichloromethane solutions containing N-ethoxy-2-methylpyridinium (V), N-ethoxy-4-phenyl-pyridinium (VI), or N-ethoxy-isoquinolinium hexafluorophosphate (VII). Whereas the bifunctional EEC was converted into an insoluble gel, BVE and CHO formed polymers of molar mass: M(w) = 2 X 10(4)-2 X 10(5) (PCHO) and M(w) almost-equal-to 2 X 10(4) (PBVE). Protons are formed with a rather high quantum yield [phi(H+) = 0.48 on irradiating VII in dichloromethane; titration with sodium p -nitrophenolate ] and it is, therefore, assumed that the polymerization is initiated by photochemically generated protons.
