Abstract
Cationic photopolymerization of cyclohexene oxide initiated by phenacyl imidazolium, (1 vinylphenacylimidazolium), poly(l-vinyl phenacylimidazolium) and phenacyl bezimidazolium salts having SbF6-anion has been studied in dichloromethane at 25°C. Experimental results are presented to show preparation and isolation of these salts, the effects of salt concentration, photolysis time and light intensity on the rates of conversion to polycyclohexeneoxide. The mechanism by which photopolymerization with the mentioned salts occurs is suggested to involve proton (H+) in initiation reactions.
