Synthesis and polymerization of a novel functional acrylamide

N-[2-(3,4-Dimethyl-2,5-dioxo-2,5-dlhydro-pyrrol-1-yl)-ethyl]-acrylamide, a novel functional acrylamide, was synthesized by an efficient four-step procedure starting from diaminoethane. It can be homopolymerized and copolymerized with methyl methacrylate (MMA) by 2,2'-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator. The new monomer and the polymers synthesized were characterized by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy, and by GPC and MALDI-TOF-MS.
