Polymer ester von sären des phosphors, 7. Polymerisation des 1-oxo-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo[2.2.1]heptans

subject

description

1-Oxo-2,6,7-trioxa-1-phosphabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane is transformed in situ (prepared from trimethyl phosphite and glycerol) at −78°C in the presence of a trace of water into a crosslinked polymer containing constitutional repeating units with 5- and 6-membered rings. The reaction with reagents containing hydroxyl groups (water, acetic acid, alcohol) leads to the degradation of the network with the formation of soluble fragments with Pn = 35–50. This reactivity and the possibility to obtain other derivatives from the fragments make this polymer a carrier for pharmacologically active polymers with the advantage of decomposing only into the innocuous components phosphoric acid and glycerol.
