Methacrylate, ethylene oxide substituted

II. B polyethylene glycol, ethylene oxide, polystyrene, diisocyanates (urethanes), polyvinylchloride, chloroprene, THF, diglycolide, dilac-tide, <5-valerolactone, substituted e-caprolactones, 4-vinyl anisole, styrene, methyl methacrylate, and vinyl acetate. In addition to these species, many copolymers have been prepared from oligomers of PCL. In particular, a variety of polyester-urethanes have been synthesized from hydroxy-terminated PCL, some of which have achieved commercial status (9). Graft copolymers with acrylic acid, acrylonitrile, and styrene have been prepared using PCL as the backbone polymer (60). 

The tetrakis-sulphoxides (67) have been reported as a new type of PT catalyst in a solid-liquid mode, for example in 5n reactions of 1-bromo-octane. Nucleophilic substitutions of 1-bromo-octane and benzyl bromide are again the test reactions in a report on the use of the sucrose-ethylene oxide adducts (68a) as PT catalysts in both solid-liquid and liquid-liquid modes. The methacrylate ester derivative (68b) has been polymerized to a cross-linked gel that acts in a TC capacity for the same reactions. In a related approach some modified dextran anion exchangers carrying lipophilic substituents, such as the modified hydroxypropylated dextran gel shown in (69), have been synthesized and shown to catalyse displacement reactions including the alkyl bromide to iodide transformation under TC conditions. ...
