Abstract

Monomers α, β, β-trifluorostyrene and 4-methyl-α, β, β-trifluorostyrene were prepared and were copolymerised under free-radical emulsion conditions to give highly stable, well defined lipophilic polymer resins. Benzylic halogenation of the polymer products gave 4- chloromethyl and 4-bromomethyl derivatives which could be elaborated through nucleophilic displacement of halide. The reaction of 4-fluorophenol with the 4- ...
