N‐vinylthiopyrrolidinone

L. E. Coleman, J. F. Bork

Abstract

Abstract The polymerization reactivity of N‐vinylthipyrrolidinone is described. This monomer readily homopolymerizes and forms copolymers with a wide variety of vinyl monomers. Reactivity ratios in the copolymerization of N‐vinylthiopyrrolidinone with styrene and methyl methacrylate are reported and the Alfrey‐Price Q and e values calculated. These results indicate the high copolymerization reactivity of this monomer in comparison with the oxo‐analog, N‐vinylpyrrolidinone. Some of the results are in conflict with previously reported data.
