yield) as a white powder. The number-average molecular
weight (Mn) and the molecular weight distribution
(Mw/Mn) determined by GPC analysis were ca. 6.4 × 103
and 1.6, respectively. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ
6.80 - 6.25 (br, 4 H), 3.74 (br, 3 H), 1.95 - 1.20 (br, 3 H).
4.8. Preparation of
Poly(4-Dimethylaminostyrene)
Into a two-necked reaction vessel were added 4-dime-
thylaminostyrene (0.88 g, 6.0 × 10–3 mol), AIBN (98 mg,
6.0 × 10–4 mol), and THF (4 mL). After stirring at 70˚C
for 20 h under N2 atmosphere, the solvent was removed
in vacuo to give a crude product. Reprecipitation was
carried out at least three times in a THF-MeOH system.
The last precipitate was dried under reduced pressure and
lyophilized with a freeze dryer to give 6 (0.28 g, 32%
yield) as a white powder. The number-average molecular
weight (Mn) and the molecular weight distribution
(Mw/Mn) determined by GPC analysis were ca. 5.4 × 103
and 1.6, respectively. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ
6.95 - 6.22 (br, 4 H), 2.87 (br, 6 H), 2.15 - 1.05 (br, 3 H).
