Al. Mokrousov et al., SYNTHESIS AND INVESTIGATION OF OLIGOESTERCARBORANE ACRYLATES, Journal of applied chemistry of the USSR, 65(10), 1992, pp. 1912-1917
By the condensation-telemerization method through the interaction of 1
,7-bis(hydroxymethyl)metacarborane, a polybasic acid (or its anhydride
), and acrylic acid in a mole ratio 1:(0.125-0.5):(1.8-1.2), oligoeste
rcarborane acrylates have been synthesized with yields 80.2-98.0% of t
he theoretical. Gel permeation chromatography and PMR spectroscopy hav
e been used to investigate the composition and structure of the oligom
ers.
