Polymerization of an acetoxyvinyl substituted chlorocyclophosphazene

The vinyl acetate derivative, gem-isopropyl-2-(alpha-acetoxyvinyl)tetrachlorocyclotriphosphazene (1), has been used in radical homopolymerization and copolymerization reactions with methyl methacrylate, (MMA) and styrene. The 1,1-disubstituted olefin did not undergo radical homopolymerization. Copolymers derived from MMA and 1 contained only low amounts (
