Notizen:
Steric and electronic effects of the β-methyl group on monomer reactivity have been studied by copolymerization of styrenes and β-methylstyrenes. Steric hindrance of the β-methyl group in the transition state of homopolymerization is so great that the rate of the propagation reaction is considered to be depressed by as much as 1/10-1/20 of the corresponding styrene derivatives. In contrast to this, steric hindrance of the β-methyl group in cross propagation reactions with styrene is found to be very small. The monomer reactivity itself of β-methylstyrenes is a little lower than that of corresponding styrenes. This lowered reactivity of β-methylstyrenes is considered to be due to the electronic effect of the β-methyl group.
