Abstract

Chiral monomers (cis, endo‐3‐dimethylamino‐2‐bornyl methacrylate (DABM) and N, N‐dimethyl[cis,endo‐2‐(2‐vinyloxyethoxy)‐3‐bornyl]amine (DVEBA)) were synthesized from (+)‐camphor. The free radical homopolymerization of both DABM and DVEBA, and the copolymerization of both chiral monomers with achiral methyl methacrylate and styrene, resp., were carried out in various organic solvents. Effects of temperature, solvents, and reaction time on the polymerizations were studied. Dependences of the specific rotation of the chiral copolymers on the feed concentration and reaction conditions were investigated. Application of the chiral polymers on the asymmetric induction were also investigated.
