Abstract
Changes in the FT-Raman spectrum of 1,4-bis(3-quinolyl)buta-1,3-diyne (DQ) as a function of gamma-ray dosage is used to monitor the degree o f monomer to polymer conversion in a solid-state topochemical polymeri zation reaction. The relative intensities of the characteristic C=C pe aks in the nonresonant FT-Raman spectra provide a nondestructive quant itative means to measure the conversion from monomer to polymer.
