Abstract:

The radical polymerization of optically active methacrylamide derivatives, N-[o-(4-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl) phenymethacrylamide ((R)-PhOPMAM) and N-[o-(4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl) phenymethacrylamide ((S)-PriOPMAM), were carried out under various conditions. The effect of the Lewis acid, that is, rare earth metal trifluoromethanesulfonates on the free-radical polymerization were examined under different solvents. The Lewis acids are effective in enhancing the isotacticity in the polymerization of (S)-PriOPMAM. The same phenomenon were not happened in the polymerization of (R)-PhOPMAM. The polymerization characteristics and the chiroptical behavior of the resultant polymers have been examined by using circular dichroism (CD), UVVis, and NMR spectroscopies.
