An oxoaminium chloride that is prepared by reacting 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy (TEMPO) with chlorine in carbon tetrachloride initiates radical polymerization of styrene at 120 degrees C. In the early stages of polymerization, a monomeric adduct, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-(2-chloro-1-phenylethoxy)piperidine, is formed. Thereafter, styrene polymerization exhibiting the characteristics of living polymerization proceeds. High molecular weight polymers with relatively narrow molecular weight distributions are obtained by this polymerization. H-1-NMR spectra of the polymers reveal that a chlorine atom and a TEMPO group are present at the alpha- and omega-termini, respectively. The monomeric adduct was prepared by heating the oxoaminium chloride and styrene in carbon tetrachloride at 65-70 degrees C, and was characterized by H-1- and C-13-NMR spectroscopy. It was found to be suitable as an initiator for nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization of styrene to make polymers with chlorine on the chain end. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. [References: 53]
