HCID 327584-Ethynylphenol

Procedure

A 1-liter flask was charged with 500 ml of tetrahydrofuran as a solvent and 0.01 mol of sec-butyl lithium as an initiator. To the solution at −78° C. was added 30 g of p-tert-butoxystyrene. With stirring, polymerization reaction was effected for 30 minutes. The reaction solution turned red. For producing a branched polymer, 0.005 mol of p-chloromethylstyrene was added to the reaction solution whereupon reaction was effected for 5 minutes. The reaction solution was red. Further 15 g of p-tert-butoxystyrene was added. With stirring, polymerization reaction was effected for 30 minutes. Polymerization was stopped by adding 0.1 mol of methanol to the reaction solution.
