Cyanophenoxy group

In this section we describe some UnPHAs that are built from monomers containing halogen atoms, those bearing methyl, methoxy, ethoxy, hydroxyl, epoxy, acetoxy, carbonyl, cyano, phenyl, nitrophenyl, phenoxy, thiophenoxy or cyanophenoxy groups and PHAs containing aUcyclic monomers. 

Polymer M is proparod by the reduction of polyphosphazenes that bear p-cyanophenoxy side groups together with phenoxy cosubstituents. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-induced condensation with... 

The incorporation of p-cyanophenoxy and p-nitrophenoxy groups into PHAs synthesized by P. putida and P. oleovorans has also been reported (Kim et al. 1995a). However, the extent of the incorporation of these functional groups into PHA was significantly lower than the incorporations reported for other aromatic groups, and always required that octanoic acid be cofed to the culture.
