Reaktionsschritte

A solution was prepared of acrylic acid (10.0 g, 133 mmol) and n-decylacrylate (1.0 g, 4.71 mmol) in dioxane (200 mL). The solution was degassed by passing a rapid stream of nitrogen through it, and to the solution was added AIBN (0.6 g, 5 mol % with respect to total monomer). The solution was degassed for a further thirty minutes and the reaction was then heated to 70° C. for 16 h. The solution was cooled and precipitated into ethyl acetate (600 mL). The ethyl acetate was decanted from the fibrous white product, the product was washed with ethyl acetate (300 mL) and then with hexane (200 mL). The polymer was dried in vacuo to yield 9.0 g, 81% of a brittle white solid.
