subject

description

This paper presents results of a research program in which several vinyl carbazole polymers containing chlorine and bromine atoms in their molecules were polymerized and characterized by IR spectroscopy and thermoanalysis. The compounds were synthesized by reacting 2-chloroethanol benzenesulfonate with the appropriate halogenocarbazoles (Clemo-Perkin method) obtaining in this way some halogen derivatives of 9-(2-chloroethyl)carbazole; these derivatives following dehydrochlorination produced relevant vinyl derivatives. Results are evaluated in terms of reaction mechanisms and molecular structures of polymers synthesized.
