Methacrylamides

Efficient acetalization of alkenes bearing various EWG with an optically active 1.3-diol 72 proceeds smoothly utilizing PdCN, CuCI. and O2 in DME to give the 1,3-dioxane 73[113], Methacrylamide bearing 4-t-butyloxazolidin-2-one 74 as a chiral auxiliary reacts with MeOH in the presence of PdCE catalyst...

Catalysts. Silver and silver compounds are widely used in research and industry as catalysts for oxidation, reduction, and polymerization reactions. Silver nitrate has been reported as a catalyst for the preparation of propylene oxide (qv) from propylene (qv) (58), and silver acetate has been reported as being a suitable catalyst for the production of ethylene oxide (qv) from ethylene (qv) (59). The solubiUty of silver perchlorate in organic solvents makes it a possible catalyst for polymerization reactions, such as the production of butyl acrylate polymers in dimethylformamide (60) or the polymerization of methacrylamide (61). Similarly, the solubiUty of silver tetrafiuoroborate in organic solvents has enhanced its use in the synthesis of 3-pyrrolines by the cyclization of aHenic amines (62). 

However, binding the antioxidant chemically to the elastomer chain by copolymeri2ation or grafting is a better solution to this problem. The addition of /V-(4-ani1ino-pheny1)methacrylamide [22325-96-8] (38) to a polymeri2ation recipe for NBR mbber produces a polymer with a built-in antioxidant resistant to extraction (23). 

Acetone cyanohydrin is used for methacrylate manufacture. Sulfuric acid is added in greater than an equimolar amount, and by thermal cracking the acetone cyanohydrin is converted to methacrylamide sulfate [29194-31-8]. 

One of the most important appHcations of this process is that of methyl methacrylate manufacture. In this process (81), acetone cyanohydrin is treated with sulfuric acid at 100°C, affording the corresponding methacrylamide sulfate which is esterified with methanol. After purification, methyl methacrylate (99.8% purity) is obtained in a yield of ca 85%. 

Methacrylamide [79-39-0] M 85.1, m 111-112 . Crystd from benzene or ethyl acetate and dried under vacuum at room temperature. 

The cyanohydrin is then treated with 98% sulphuric acid in a cooled hydrolysis kettle to yield methacrylamide sulphate (Figure 15.3)... 

The amount of polar monomer one would copolymerize with the alkyl acrylate monomer(s) very much depends on the type of polar monomer and the desired change in rheological properties one would like to achieve. Strong hydrogen bonding monomers, such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylamide, or methacrylamide are typically used at levels of 12% or less of the total monomers. 

This reaction is utilized by Burrows et al. [70] to photoinitiate grafting of acrylamide, acrylic acid, methacrylamide, and acrylonitrile on cellulose triacetate in acidic aqueous solution. 

Recently, Si et al. [59,60] have investigated the synthesis of polymerizable amines, such as N-(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl) acrylamide(DMAPAA) and N-(3-dimeth-ylaminopropyl) methacrylamide (DMAPMA), and their copolymerization reaction. DMAPAA or DMAPMA in conjunction with ammonium persulfate was used as a redox initiator for vinyl polymerization. Copolymers having amino pendant groups, such as copolymer of... 

By means of a ring-opening polymerization of the condensation type Vlasov et al. [50] synthesized polypeptide based MAIs with azo groups in the polymeric backbone. The method is based on the reaction of a hydracide derivative of AIBN and a N-carboxy anhydride. Containing one central azo group in the polymer main chain, the polymeric azo initiator was used for initiating block copolymerizations of styrene and various methacrylamides. 

It should be noted that the manifestation of macro- and heteroreticulation is also observed for other carboxylic CP. A similar picture was obtained for weakly alkaline CP based on the derivatives of methacrylamide with HHTT [26]. 

Most other hydrophilic monomers inclined to radical polymerization (methacrylamide, methacrylic acid, N-vinylpyrrolidone, aminoalkyl and hydroxyalkyl methacrylates) do not form hydrogels with high swellability in water.
