Reaction Steps

23.5 gm (0.25 mol) of N-vinylimidazole and 179.75 gm (0.75 mol) of lauryl acrylate were dissolved in 480 gm of toluene. 4 gm of dibenzoylperoxide were added as a catalyst to the solution obtained. The reaction mixture was agitated for 6 hours at 60° C. After the reaction had been completed, the solvent was distilled off and the product was washed a few times with methanol. 162 gm, that is 80% of theory, of N-vinylimidazole/lauryl acrylate copolymer (1:3) were obtained.
