All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeResearchers at Rutgers University have developed biocompatible polymers that degrade into nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. For example, the reaction of two equivalents of benzyl salicylate and one equivalent of sebacoyl chloride forms a poly(anhydride ester) called PolyAspirin, which hydrolyzes to salicylic acid (an anti-inflammatory agent) and sebacic acid, which is excreted. This technology can perhaps be used for localized drug delivery at specific sites of injury. What is the structure of PolyAspirin?
Explain why aqueous NaOH solution can be stored indefinitely in polyethylene bottles, but spilling aqueous base on a polyester shirt or nylon stockings quickly makes a hole.
Explain why cationic polymerization is an effective method of polymerizing but not .
(a) Explain why poly(vinyl alcohol) cannot be prepared by the radical polymerization of vinyl alcohol (b) Devise a stepwise synthesis of poly(vinyl alcohol) from vinyl acetate(c) How can poly(vinyl alcohol) be converted to poly(vinyl butyral), a polymer used in windshield safety glass?
Cationic polymerization of 3-phenylpropene ()affords A as the major product rather than B. Draw a stepwise mechanism to account for this observation.
