Synthesis and Properties of Oligomer Carrying 2-s-Butyl-4, 6-dinitrophenyl Group in the Side Chain

Abstract

2-s-Butyl-4, 6-dinitrophenol (BDNP) was chemically modified ?t o p olymerizable amphiphile, [10-(2-s-butyl-4, 6-dinitropherioxycarbonyl)decyl] [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyla mmonium bromide via 2-s-butyl-4, 6-dinitrophenyl 11-bromoundecanoate 1.2 was converted to a, oligomer 3 with ca.6500 of molecular weight by a radical polymerization. Krafft point of 2 was found to be 32.3°C. CMC values of 2 and 3 were found to be 2.7 x10^-4 and 4.0 x10^-4molfi, respectively by the measurements of conductivity of their aqueous solution.1, 2, and 3 exhibit antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus.
