Synthesis of a Bifunctional Base Amplifier Containing a Disulfide Bond and Its Application to Photoreactive Materials

Abstract

We have designed a carbamate of an aliphatic diamine having a disulfide bond, and proposed an anionic UV curing system consisting of a photobase generator,the carbamate and a bifunctional epoxy resin. We examined whether the carbamate works as a base amplifier (BA) that generates a base molecule autocatalytically with a trigger base in a base proliferation reaction.
