Synthesis, polymarisation and investigation of some phisical properties of 2-[(4-chlorophenyl) iminomethyl] phenol

BSTRACT Properties of the products and the oxidative polycondensation reaction conditions of (4-chlorophenyl) imino methyl phenol (CPIMP) with air O2 and NaOCl were studied. In lese reactions, optimum reaction conditions of air O2 and NaOCl were determined for PIMP. 01igo-2-(4-chlorophenyl) imino methyl phenol was synthesized from the oxidative Decondensation of CPIMP with air O2 and NaOCl in alkaline medium at 50-90°C. The umber average molecular weight, (Mn) mass average molecular weight (Mw) and olydispersity index (PDI) values of OCPIMP (as oxidant, NaOCl) were found to be 468 g 10I"1, 892 g moi"[ and 1,91, respectively. At the optimum reaction conditions, the yield of (CPIMP was found to be % 62.80 (for air 02 oxidant) and % 87.50 (for NaOCl oxidant). TG nalyses were shown to be stable of OCPIMP against thermo-oxidative decomposition. The »CPIMP was characterized by 'H-NMR, FT-IR, UV-Vis and elemental analysis. The weight >ss of OCPIMP and its complexes Cu, Ni, Co was found to be %88,06, %91,74, %89,40, b93,65 at 1000°C according to TG analyses, respectively. keywords: Oxidative polycondensation, oligo-2-(4-chlorophenyl) imino methyl phenol.
