Synthesis of amine linked type II photoinitiator (BPDEA) was achieved in high yields and photopolymerization of mono and multiacrylate monomers was performed with this photoinitiator in the absence of a coinitiator. BPDEA is more effective than benzophenone (BP) with the coinitiator (MDEA) system under inert atmosphere in photoinduced free radical polymerization of acrylates.
