BD. They reported an improvement in shape memory properties as a result of introduction aromatic structure into the main chain. Yang and co-workers [122] compared the mechanical, dynamic mechanical and shape memory properties of PU block coPolymers with planar shape hard segment (1,6-diphenyl diisocyanate (PDI)) and bent shape hard segment (MDI). The PDl-based PU showed superior properties compared with MDI-based PU (Table 2.11) as a result of better interaction among hard segments due to the planar shape of PDI. 

This led to the introduction of the concepts of inductive and resonance effects and to the establishment of the mechanism of electrophilic aromatic substitution. 

The Hoesch Reaction is employed for the introduction of the - COR group into the aromatic ring of phenol or a phenolic ether, and usually proceeds particularly readily with polyhydric phenols. If an ethereal solution of resorcinol (I)... 

In both media a limit was reached beyond which the introduction of further activating substituents did not increase the rate of nitration this limit was identified as the rate of encounter of the nitronium ions and the aromatic molecules. 

If acetoxylation were a conventional electrophilic substitution it is hard to understand why it is not more generally observed in nitration in acetic anhydride. The acetoxylating species is supposed to be very much more selective than the nitrating species, and therefore compared with the situation in (say) toluene in which the ratio of acetoxylation to nitration is small, the introduction of activating substituents into the aromatic nucleus should lead to an increase in the importance of acetoxylation relative to nitration. This is, in fact, observed in the limited range of the alkylbenzenes, although the apparently severe steric requirement of the acetoxylation species is a complicating feature. The failure to observe acetoxylation in the reactions of compounds more reactive than 2-xylene has been attributed to the incursion of another mechan-104... 

Brown developed the selectivity relationship before the introduction of aromatic reactivities following the Hammett model. The former, less direct approach to linear free-energy relationships was necessary because of lack of data at the time. 

The final step can involve introduction of the amino group or of the carbonyl group. o-Nitrobenzyl aldehydes and ketones are useful intermediates which undergo cyclization and aromatization upon reduction. The carbonyl group can also be introduced by oxidation of alcohols or alkenes or by ozonolysis. There are also examples of preparing indoles from o-aminophcnyl-acetonitriles by partial reduction of the cyano group. 

In agreement with the theory of polarized radicals, the presence of substituents on heteroaromatic free radicals can slightly affect their polarity. Both 4- and 5-substituted thiazol-2-yl radicals have been generated in aromatic solvents by thermal decomposition of the diazoamino derivative resulting from the reaction of isoamyl nitrite on the corresponding 2-aminothiazole (250,416-418). Introduction in 5-position of electron-withdrawing substituents slightly enhances the electrophilic character of thiazol-2-yl radicals (Table 1-57). 

Because the position of electrophilic attack on an aromatic nng is controlled by the direct ing effects of substituents already present the preparation of disubstituted aromatic com pounds requires that careful thought be given to the order of introduction of the two groups Compare the independent preparations of m bromoacetophenone and p bromoace tophenone from benzene Both syntheses require a Friedel-Crafts acylation step and a bromination step but the major product is determined by the order m which the two steps are carried out When the meta directing acetyl group is introduced first the final product IS m bromoacetophenone...

G-5—G-9 Aromatic Modified Aliphatic Petroleum Resins. Compatibihty with base polymers is an essential aspect of hydrocarbon resins in whatever appHcation they are used. As an example, piperylene—2-methyl-2-butene based resins are substantially inadequate in enhancing the tack of 1,3-butadiene—styrene based random and block copolymers in pressure sensitive adhesive appHcations. The copolymerization of a-methylstyrene with piperylenes effectively enhances the tack properties of styrene—butadiene copolymers and styrene—isoprene copolymers in adhesive appHcations (40,41). Introduction of aromaticity into hydrocarbon resins serves to increase the solubiHty parameter of resins, resulting in improved compatibiHty with base polymers. However, the nature of the aromatic monomer also serves as a handle for molecular weight and softening point control. 

Chloromethjlation Reactions. The introduction of the chloromethyl group to both aHphatic and aromatic compounds is carried out by reaction of paraformaldehyde [30525-89-4] and hydrogen chloride. This method is used for synthesizing methyl chloromethyl ether [107-30-2], benzyl chloride [100-44-7], and chloromethyl acetate. 

The environmental concerns associated with the use of toluene, a toxic and flammable aromatic hydrocarbon, as a gravure ink solvent must be addressed. Whereas ink manufacturers are working on the development of water-based inks, the slow drying times and poor printing quaUties of the prototype products have impeded commercia1i2ation. Furthermore, the high cost of these materials is seen as a barrier to their introduction. 

Aromatic compounds may be chlorinated with chlorine in the presence of a catalyst such as iron, ferric chloride, or other Lewis acids. The halogenation reaction involves electrophilic displacement of the aromatic hydrogen by halogen. Introduction of a second chlorine atom into the monochloro aromatic stmcture leads to ortho and para substitution. The presence of a Lewis acid favors polarization of the chlorine molecule, thereby increasing its electrophilic character. Because the polarization does not lead to complete ionization, the reaction should be represented as shown in equation 26. 

A.mina.tlon. Amination describes the introduction of amino groups into aromatic molecules by reaction of ammonia or an amine with suitably substituted halogeno, hydroxy, or sulfonated derivatives by nucleophilic displacement. Although reaction and operational conditions vary, the process always involves the heating of the appropriate precursor with excess aqueous ammonia or amine under pressure. 

Cl Acid Gieen 25 [4403-90-1] (3) (Cl 61570) was also invented in 1894. This dye shows improved wetfastness, and is prepared from leucoquinizarin by reaction with 2 moles of i)-toluidine in a similat manner to the preparation of Cl Acid Violet 43 (134). Wetfastness and leveling properties may be altered by choosing the substituents of arylamines. The introduction of alkyl groups into aromatic amines improves the wetfastness and affinity in neutral or weekly acid baths. Examples ate Cl Acid Blue 80 [4474-24-27] (131) (Cl 61585) and Cl Acid Gieen 27 [6408-57-7] (132) (Cl 61580).

As the author pointed out in the first edition of this book, the likelihood of discovering new important general purpose materials was remote but special purpose materials could be expected to continue to be introduced. To date this prediction has proved correct and the 1960s saw the introduction of the polysulphones, the PPO-type materials, aromatic polyesters and polyamides, the ionomers and so on. In the 1970s the new plastics were even more specialised in their uses. On the other hand in the related fields of rubbers and fibres important new materials appeared, such as the aramid fibres and the various thermoplastic rubbers. Indeed the division between rubbers and plastics became more difficult to draw, with rubbery materials being handled on standard thermoplastics-processing equipment.
