SYNTHESIS OF TRIPLE STRAND POLYMERS.
Abstract
A wide variety of new and unusual compounds were synthesized and characterized. A significant contribution was made to the theory of decarboxylation of carboxylic acids in that the reaction is subject to steric control. Both cis- and trans- 1,2,5-triisocyanatocyclohexane were synthesized; these compounds are functionally capable of cyclopolymerizing to linear polymers containing bicyclic and tricyclic units. Structural studies on the polymers obtained indicate that predominantly bicyclic structures were obtained. During the course of this work, a significant contribution was made to the theory of intramolecular cyclizations. A significant contribution was made to use of chargetransfer complexes as intermediates in chemical reactions. (Author)
