Reaction Steps

The polymeric main chain having the above repeating structure was synthesized according to the same procedures as described in Example 1. The side chain was synthesized as follows. First, 1 g (0.006 mol) of cinnamic acid was reacted with 0.71 g (0.006 mol) of thionyl chloride in dichloromethane at a temperature of 35° C. for 1 hour to form cinnamoyl chloride. Then, the cinnamoyl chloride was reacted with 0.98 g (0.006 mol) of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and an aqueous solution of NaOH/DMSO with stirring for 1 hour at a room temperature. The product was again reacted with thionyl chloride in dichloromethane to form a side chain as follows.
