Abstract
Fluorine-19 NMR analyses allowed to obtain kinetic data about bicyclo[2.2.2 ]oct-7-ene dianhydrides thermal imidization. It was evidenced that the high reactivity of such a substrate is owing to the combined effects of bifunct ionality and ethenylene bridge. This latter effect is inhibited by the pres ence of an electron-withdrawing group on the double bond. A basic solvent ( NMP) does favor the amic acid intermediate formation; an acidic solvent (m- cresol) does accelerate the amic acid cyclization to imide, (C) 1999 Elsevi er Science Ltd.
