Introduction of Perfluoroalkyl Groups via Polystyrene-Block-Polyisoprene

5 Introduction of Perfluoroalkyl Groups via Polystyrene-Block-Polyisoprene 

A precursory polystyrene-Z /6 c -poly(4-vinylphenol) is first prepared by living anionic block copolymerization of styrene and 4-t rt-butyldimethylsilyloxystyrene, followed by deprotection of the silyl group. The resulting polymer is reacted with 3-perfluorooctylpropyl bromide to afford the target polystyrene-Z / 9c -poly(4-(3-perfluorooctylpropoxy)styrene)
