Synthysis, Characterization and Conformation of Some New Macromolecules Containing Nitrone Moieties

Abstract

Macromolecules containing Nitrone moieties were prepared by oxidation of imines formed by the reaction of terephthaldehyde with diamine compounds using a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and glacial acetic acid. The Nitrone compounds were characterized by CHN analysis, Infra-red and mass spectrometry. Geometrical optimization and calculation of  heat of formation for these compounds confirm that the structure of these compounds is of the E form.
