Notes:
Polyamides having pendant functional groups such as hydroxyl, mercapto, or imine groups were synthesized by the Ritter reaction of dinitriles and trioxane in concentrated sulfuric acid. The polymerization of β-hydroxyl glutaronitrile yielded a water-soluble polyamide having a low molecular weight which might be ascribed to the participation of the hydroxyl group with the polymerization, while the polymerization of β-mercaptoglutaronitrile resulted in the formation of a crosslinked polyamide which was insoluble in common solvents. Polymerization of dinitriles having imine groups yielded water-soluble polyamides which were effective as a coagulation agent for colloidal solutions.
