Procedure
Reference is now made to the drawing, which is a flow chart of an exemplary completely integrated process of the present invention for conversion of cyanuric chloride to capped polymer. Cyanuric chloride (CYCI) dissolved in a suitable solvent, preferably toluene, is introduced into the system via line 1, and phase transfer catalyst (PTC) is added at 2. Mesitol and aqueous base are added from vessels 3 and 4, the rates of addition being controlled by valves 5 and 6 respectively. The reactant mixture then passes into static mixer 7, the residence time therein being effective to produce a toluene solution of the desired 2,4-dichloro-6-mesitoxy-1,3,5-triazine (DCMT).
