Reaction Steps

To a 1-L 3-necked round-bottomed flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer and a reflux condenser was added 625 g of a 20.0 wt. % solution of styrene-co-1-vinylimidazole (50/50) in DMF. Benzyl chloride (8.0 g) was added, and the solution was stirred and heated at 100° C. under a slight positive pressure of nitrogen for 18 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled and the polymer precipitated into diethyl ether with rapid stirring. The flaky precipitate was washed well with diethyl ether and dried in a vacuum oven.
