Reaction Steps

Glycidol (8.88 g, 120 mmol) was placed in a baked Schlenk flask and heated to 150° C. A mixture of KOH (20 mg), hydroquinone (130 mg) and HEMA (2.6 g, mmol) was added to the glycidol over a period of 2 hours by means of a syringe pump. The reaction mixture was stirred at 150° C. for a further 2 hours. The product is obtained as a viscous brownish substance. However, polymer particles which are not soluble in the main fraction are formed during the reaction. These can also not be redissolved after the reaction.
