Abstract
2,6,7-Trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with phenyl group were prepared to obtain monomers which expand on polymerization. 1-Phenyl-4-ethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (I) could expand 0.2% during polymerization at a temperature slightly higher than the melting point. 1,4-Diphenyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (II) also expanded as much as 1.4% on polymerization. Further, the hydrolysis of 2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with p-substituted phenyl groups were investigated to estimate the stability in water.
