Abstract:
An aliphatic maleimide of the formula: wherein:(a) each R1 and R2 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, linear or branched C1 to C4 alkyl, and halogen; (b) R is linear or branched C1 to C10 alkylene; and (c) FG is a functional group selected from the group consisting of â€”OR3, â€”SR3, â€”SiH2R3, â€”OC(O)N(R3)2, â€”C(O)R3, â€”C(O)OR3, â€”NCO, â€”C(O)N(R3)2, â€”OC(O)OR3, â€”OC(O)R3, â€”CH2N-aryl-FGâ€², â€”CH2N-aryl-R3â€²,â€”FGâ€², sulfonic acid, quaternary ammonium, and salts thereof, in which each R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, arylalkyl, and alkylaryl, and R3â€², is selected from the group consisting of alkylene, arylene, cycloalkylene, arylalkylene, and alkylarylene, with the proviso that when FG is â€”OR3, then R3 is not hydrogen, or when FG is â€”OC(O)N(R3)2, then R3 is not aryl, or when FG is â€”OC(O)R3, then R3 is not alkyl, or when FG is â€”C(O)OR3, then R3 is not hydrogen, and in which FGâ€²is selected from the group consisting of â€”OR3, â€”SR3, â€”SiH2R3, â€”OC(O)N(R3)2, â€”OC(O)C(&boxH;CHR3)R3, â€”OC(O)R3, â€”C(O)R3, â€”N(R3)2, â€”C(O)OR3, â€”NCO, â€”C(O)N(R3)2, â€”OC(O)OR3, â€”CN, halogen, sulfonic acid, and quaternary ammonium.
