Synthesis of novel Copolymers from free radical polymerization of DFructopyranose derivatives and N-Substituted Maleimides

Abstract

Several N - substituted maleimides were prepared from the reaction of maleic
anhydride with aromatic primary amines to form the corresponding N- substituted
maleamicacids. Dehydration of the prepared maleamic acids using acetic anhydride and
sodium acetate resulted in the formation of the corresponding maleimides. The prepared
maleimides were allowed to polymerize with D-fructopyranose derivatives (compound (II))
free radically using AIBN As the initiator .
The prepared compounds were detected by using C.H.N Analyses , I.R and physical
properties.
