Pentafluorophenyl acrylate and -methacrylate were polymerized using AIBN as a thermal initiator. The obtained polymers were soluble polymeric active esters that could be used for the preparation of multifunctional polymers. The reactivity of poly(pentafluorophenylacrylate) and poly(pentafluorophenylmethacrylate) towards primary and secondary amines, as well as alcohols was investigated in a quantitative way. Both poly(active esters) reacted satisfactorily with aliphatic primary and secondary amines but only low conversion was found in the case of aromatic amines. Conversions of only 30% were reached when poly(pentafluorophenylacrylate) was treated with one equivalent of alcohol under base catalysis. In time resolved FT-IR studies the rate constants of the polymer analogous reactions were determined. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
