4-(N,N-Diallylamino)pyridine (DAAP), N,N-diallylaminobenzene (DAAB), N,N,N'
,N'-tetrallyl-4,4'-diaminobenzidine (AAB), N,N,N',N'-tetrallyl-4,4'-diamino
diphenyl sulfone (AABS), and N,N,N',N'-tetrallyl-4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether
(AABE) were prepared by sodium substitution and N-allylation. Moreover, li
near polyDAAP, poly(DAAP-co-DAAB), and network poly(DAAP-co-AAB), poly(DAAP
-co-AABS), and poly(DAAP-co-AABE), all being polymers containing supernucle
ophilic groups, were synthesized in the cyclopolymerization. (C) 2000 John
