Mode opératoire

Maleic Anhydride (MA, 14.7 g, 150 mmol), Phenyl Ethyl Norbornene (PENB, 29.7 g, 150 mmol) and AIBN (2.5 g, 15.0 mmol) was dissolved in THF (27.1 g) and charged to a reaction vessel. The solution was sparged with nitrogen for 10 min to remove oxygen and then heated to 60° C. The mixture was allowed to stir at 60° C. for 24 hr, after which the solution was diluted to 20 wt % with 148.04 g of THF. The resulting solution was added to the suspension of NaOH (6.6 g, 165 mmol), MeOH (24.0 g, 750 mmol) and THF (24.0 g) which were mixed at 70° C. for 1 hr. The mixture was allowed to stir for 3 hr at 70° C. and then was cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was treated with conc. HClaq for protonation, and then washed three times to remove residual salts and acid. The organic phase was separated and then concentrated in vacuo, redissolved in THE to form an approximately 20 wt % copolymer solution and then the copolymer was precipitated by adding the THF solution to hexane (20 fold excess). The copolymer was separated by filtration and dried in a vacuum oven at 80° C. for 16 hr. Approximately, 28.7 g (58%) of the Ring-opening polymer of MA/PENB with MeOH was isolated (GPC Mw=6,400 Mn=3,500).
