Notes:
The microstructure of a series of high conversion copolymers of methyl acrylate (MA) and N-vinylcarbazole (NVC) was characterized by NMR. 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra were assigned by comparison to the homopolymers and by using heteronuclear shift correlation spectroscopy. MA-centered triad distributions were obtained from the carbonyl carbon. Distributions of NVC sequences were determined from aromatic carbons 1 and 8a, and aromatic proton 1 These experimentally determined sequence distributions were compared to those calculated from reactivity ratios approximated from the copolymer compositions. Agreement was very good for low NVC content copolymers. Three signals were particularly useful in providing rapid assessment of the distribution of NVC units within low NVC content copolymers: proton 1 and carbon 1 of NVC and the carbonyl carbon of MA. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
