Abstract:
A polymeric composition comprising repeat units derived from (1) a carbonyl compound, (2) a monomer, and (3) phosphorochloridite wherein said carbonyl compound has the formula selected from the group consisting of (R.sup.1 O.sub.2 C).sub.m (OH)--Ar.sup.1 --(OH)(CO.sub.2 R.sup.1).sub.m, (R.sup.1 O.sub.2 C).sub.m (OH)--Ar.sup.2 --A.sup.2 --Ar.sup.2 --(OH)(CO.sub.2 R.sup.1).sub.m, (R.sup.1 O.sub.2 C).sub.m (OH)--Ar.sup.2 --Ar.sup.2 --(OH)(CO.sub.2 R.sup.1).sub.m and combinations of two or more thereof;said monomer is selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohols, amines, and combinations thereof,said phosphorochloridite has the formula selected from the group consisting of ClP(O--Ar.sup.2 --R.sup.2).sub.2 ; the Ar.sup.2 groups in ClP(O--Ar.sup.2 --R.sup.2).sub.2 are unlinked to each other, directly linked to each other, or linked to each other through group A.sup.2;each Ar.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of C.sub.6 to C.sub.40 phenylene group, C.sub.12 to C.sub.40 biphenylene group, C.sub.10 to C.sub.40 naphthylene group, C.sub.20 to C.sub.40 binaphthylene group, and combinations of two or more thereof;each Ar.sup.2 is independently selected from the group consisting of C.sub.6 to C.sub.40 phenylene group, C.sub.10 to C.sub.40 naphthylene group, and combinations thereof;A.sup.2 is selected from the group consisting of --C(R.sup.1)(R.sup.1), --O--, --N(R.sup.1)--, --S--, --S(O).sub.2 --, --S(O)--, and combinations of two or more thereof;each R.sup.1 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C.sub.1 to C.sub.12 alkyl group or cycloalkyl group, C.sub.6 to C.sub.20 aryl group, and combinations of two or more thereof;each R.sup.2 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C.sup.1 to C.sup.12 alkyl or cycloalkyl group, acetal, ketal, --OR.sup.3, --CO.sub.2 R.sup.3, C.sub.6 to C.sub.20 aryl group, F, Cl, --NO.sub.2, --SO3R.sup.3, --CN, perhaloalkyl, --S(O)R.sup.3, --S(O).sub.2 R.sup.3, --CHO, --C(O)R.sup.3, cyclic ether, --A.sup.1 Z, and combinations of two or more thereof;A.sup.1 is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.12 alkylene group;Z is selected from the group consisting of --CO.sub.2 R.sup.3, --CHO, --C(O)R.sup.3, --C(O)SR.sup.3, --SR3, --C(O)NR1R1, --OC(O)R3, --OC(O)OR3, --N.dbd.C(R.sup.1)R.sup.1, --C(R.sup.1).dbd.NR.sup.1, --C(R.sup.1).dbd.N--O--R.sup.1, --P(O)(OR.sup.3)(OR.sup.3), --S(O).sub.2 R.sup.3, --S(O)R.sup.3, --C(O)OC(O)R.sup.3, --NR.sup.3 CO.sub.2 R.sup.3, --NR.sup.3 C(O)N(R.sup.1)R.sup.1, F, Cl, --NO.sub.2, --SO.sub.3 R.sup.3, --CN, and combinations of two or more thereof;each R.sup.3 is independently selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 to C.sub.12 alkyl or cycloalkyl group, C.sub.6 to C.sub.20 aryl group, and combinations thereof; andeach m is independently a number in the range of from 1 to 2.
