Synthesis. The synthesis of poly(dichlotophosphazene) [25034-79-17, (N=PCl2) (4), the patent polymer to over 300 macromolecules of types (1) and (2), is carried out via controlled, ring-opening polymerization of the corresponding cycHc trimer, (N=PCl2)3 [940-71 -6]. 

Although the sulfone activated biphenyl and the ketone activated naphthalene moiety for the displacement polymerization have been reported by Attwood et al. [11], these were rediscovered by Cummings et al. [12] and Hergenrother et al. [13], respectively, for the synthesis of poly(aryl ethers). Recently, Singh and Hay [14] reported polymers containing 0-dibenzoyl benzene (1,2,3) moiety by reaction between bis(O-fluorobenzoyl) benzene or substituted benzene with bisphenates of alkali metal salt in DMAC as follows ... 

Diphenol/thiophenol is one of the most important polymer precursors for synthesis of poly(aryl ethers) or poly-(aryl sulfides) in displacement polymerizations. Commonly used bisphenols are 4,4 -isopropylidene diphenol or bisphenol-A (BPA) due to their low price and easy availability. Other commercial bisphenols have also been reported [7,24,25]. Recently, synthesis of poly(aryl ethers) by the reaction of new bisphenol monomers with activated aromatic dihalides has been reported. The structures of the polymer precursors are described in Table 2. Poly(aryl ether phenylquinoxalines) have been synthesized by Connell et al. [26], by the reaction of bisphenols containing a preformed quinoxaline ring with... 

The use of the hydroxyl groups of poly(vinylalcohol) as reactive sites for the preparation of various unconventional polymers is well known and indeed the very synthesis of poly(vinylalcohol) is based on a similar but reverse reaction. This general principle has been applied successfully to the synthesis of some vinyl-type furanic polymers, which cannot be made by classical routes. 

An objective in this research was the synthesis of polymers with Si-H head-groups. Thus guided by the results of model experiments (Sect. ILF.) the synthesis of poly(a-methylstyrene)(PaMeSt) with Si-H head-group (HSi-PaMeSt) was undertaken. 

The general approaches for the synthesis of poly(arylene ether)s include electrophilic aromatic substitution, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, and metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. Poly(arylene ether sulfone)s and poly(arylene ether ketone)s have quite similar structures and properties, and the synthesis approaches are quite similar in many respects. However, most of the poly(arylene ether sul-fone)s are amorphous while some of the poly(arylene ether)s are semicrystalline, which requires different reaction conditions and approaches to the synthesis of these two polymer families in many cases. In the following sections, the methods for the synthesis of these two families will be reviewed. 

The nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction for the synthesis of poly(arylene ether ketone)s is similar to that of polysulfone, involving aromatic dihalides and aromatic diphenolates. Since carbonyl is a weaker electron-withdrawing group titan sulfonyl, in most cases, difluorides need to be used to afford high-molecular-weight polymers. Typically potassium carbonate is used as a base to avoid the...

Synthesis of hydrolytically stable siloxane-urethanes by the melt reaction of organo-hydroxy terminated siloxane oligomers with various diisocyanates have been reported i97,i98) -yhg polymers obtained by this route are reported to be soluble in cresol and displayed rubber-like properties. However the molecular weights obtained were not very high. A later report56) described the use of hydroxybutyl terminated disiloxanes in the synthesis of poly(urethane-siloxanes). No data on the characterization of the copolymers have been given. However, from our independent kinetic and synthetic studies on the same system 199), unfortunately, it is clear that these types of materials do not result in well defined multiphase copolymers. The use of low molecular weight hydroxypropyl-terminated siloxanes in the synthesis of siloxane-urethane type structures has also been reported 198).

Our interest in the synthesis of poly (amino acids) with modified backbones is based on the hypothesis that the replacement of conventional peptide bonds by nonamide linkages within the poIy(amino acid) backbone can significantly alter the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the resulting polymer. Preliminary results (see below) point to the possibility that the backbone modification of poly(amino acids) circumvents many of the limitations of conventional poly(amino acids) as biomaterials. It seems that backbone-modified poly (amino acids) tend to retain the nontoxicity and good biocompatibility often associated with conventional poly (amino acids)... 

The easy processibility of hydroxyproline-derived polyesters is in marked contrast to the unfavorable material properties of most conventional poly (amino acids) that cannot usually be processed into shaped objects by conventional polymer-processing techniques (7). Furthermore, since the synthesis of poly(N-acylhydroxyproline esters) does not require the expensive N-carboxyanhydrides as monomeric starting materials, poly(N-acylhydroxyproline esters) should be significantly less expensive than derivatives of conventional poly(hy-droxyproline). 

It was therefore particularly inteipesting to investiage whether it would be possible to replace BPA by various derivatives of L-tyrosine as monomeric building blocks for the synthesis of poly-(iminocarbonates). In order to be practically useful in drug delivery applications, the replacement of BPA by derivatives of tyrosine must give rise to mechanically strong yet fully biocompatible polymers.

In 1996, Wegner et al. published the synthesis of poly(oligophenylenevinyle-ne)s (96), consisting of biphenylene-, terphenylene- and quinquephenylene moieties as aromatic building blocks, via Suzuki-type aryl-aryl cross coupling of AA/BB-type monomers [121]. By judicious choice of the arylene moieties, the optical properties of the resulting polymers can be tailored within a wide range. 

Related Polymer Systems and Synthetic Methods. Figure 12A shows a hypothetical synthesis of poly (p-phenylene methide) (PPM) from polybenzyl by redox-induced elimination. In principle, it should be possible to accomplish this experimentally under similar chemical and electrochemical redox conditions as those used here for the related polythiophenes. The electronic properties of PPM have recently been theoretically calculated by Boudreaux et al (16), including bandgap (1.17 eV) bandwidth (0.44 eV) ionization potential (4.2 eV) electron affinity (3.03 eV) oxidation potential (-0.20 vs SCE) reduction potential (-1.37 eV vs SCE). PPM has recently been synthesized and doped to a semiconductor (24).
