Acrylate esters and other monosubstituted monomers Recent work has shown that backbiting is prevalent in polymerizations and copolymerizations of acrylate esters.It is also observed in S polymerization at high temperature and probably occurs to some extent during polymerizations of most monosubstituted monomers. At high temperatures, and at low temperatures in very dilute solution, backbiting may be followed by fragmentation (Scheme 39)143,144,148-150,158 temperatures...
