Syntesis and polymerization of novel styrene derivatives having pendant ketone

In this study, 4-hydroxyasetophenon compound was reacted with 4-vynil benzil cloride at 70 oC in the asetonytrile solution with presence of potasium carbonade, and 1-4{4-[[4-ethenylbenzyl)oxy]phenyl} ethanone (EBOPE) monomer was synthesized. Afterwards, The oxime and sulfhonic hydrazone derivatives of EBOPEwas synthesized. These monomers polymerized in 1,4-dioksane solution at 65 oC with initiation of AIBN via radicalic solution polymerizationThe monomers and its hopolymers were characterized by using IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR techniques. Thermal behaviors of polymers were evaluated by using thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) method. Tg value of the polymers were obtained with DSC.
