Synthesis of novel copolymers from free radical polymerization of D-fructopyranose derivatives and N-substituted maleimides

Abstract EN

Several N-substituted maleimides were prepared from the reaction of maleic anhydride with aromatic primary amines to form the corresponding N-substituted maleamicacids.

Dehydration of the prepared maleamic acids using acetic anhydride and sodium acetate resulted in the formation of the corresponding maleimides.

The prepared maleimides were allowed to polymerize with D-fructopyranose derivatives (compound (II)) free radically using AIBN As the initiator.

The prepared compounds were detected by using C.H.N Analyses, I.R and physical properties.
