Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Into a glass tube were placed 10.514 g. freshly distilled 3-vinylpyridine, 10.415 g. freshly distilled styrene and 0.100 g. benzoyl-peroxide. The mixture was maintained at 60°C in an oil bath for 24 hr. The resulting polymer solution was poured into 10 times the volume of rapidly stirred water, filtered and dried to give a 3-vinylpyridine-styrene copolymer.
