Ma. Tlenkopatchev et al., SYNTHESIS OF A POLYNORBORNENE CONTAINING 3,5-DI-TERT-BUTYL-4-HYDROXYBENZOYL GROUP, Polymer bulletin, 34(4), 1995, pp. 385-391
A new polynorbornene derivative was synthesized by ring-opening metath
esis polymerization (ROMP) of t-butyl-4-hydroxy-benzoyl)oxy]methyl}-2-
norbornene (BHBN) using Ru- and Os-based catalysts. The structure and
properties of the poly(BHBN) were characterized by NMR, IR, DTA, DSC,
and GPC. It was shown that ROMP leads to the formation of high molecul
ar weight polynorbornene derivatives containing the stabilizing group.
