Abstract

N, 7, 7-Tricyanoquinone methide imine (1), N, 11, 11-tricyano-1, 4-naphthoquinone methide imine (2), and N, 15, 15-tricyano-9, 10-anthraquinone methide imine (3) were successfully prepared as novel electron-accepting quinone methide imine compounds. 1 is homopolymerizable with free radical and anionic initiators, while 2 and 3 are not.
