Reaktionsschritte

Poly(p-hydroxystyrene) (weight average molecular weight: 9,600) in an amount of 9 g was dissolved in 100 ml of dimethoxyethane, and thereto 12.6 g of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran and 0.5 ml of sulfuric acid were added. This solution was stirred for 15 hours at 30°-40° C. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was neutralized with sodium carbonate, and then poured into water to precipitate crystals. The crystals were filtered off, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure. Thus, 11.0 g of poly(p-tetrahydropyranyloxystyrene-p-hydroxystyrene) was obtained as white powder. The ratio of the p-tetrahydropyranyloxystyrene units to the p-hydroxystyrene units in the polymer obtained was determined to be 3:7 by 1H-NMR analysis.
