Title: | Polymerization of a p-quinodimethane derivative to a precursor of poly(p-phenylene vinylene) - Indications for a free radical mechanism | Authors: | Issaris, A VANDERZANDE, Dirk GELAN, Jan |
Issue Date: | 1997 | Publisher: | ELSEVIER SCI LTD | Source: | POLYMER, 38(10). p. 2571-2574 | Abstract: | A new synthetic route to high molecular weight poly(p-phenylene vinylene) derivatives-via a p-quinodimethane intermediate-has been investigated. Whether the polymerization is ionic or free radical has been under discussion for a long time. Strong indications for a self-initiating free radical mechanism for the polymerization are presented.
