Abstract

Cation radical and dication of N,N,N′,N'tetraphenyl-p-phenylenediamine (TPDA) having SbF₆- or SbCl₆- counterion were synthesized by chemical oxidation and characterized. These salts were shown to be useful initiators for the cationic polymerization of cyclohexene oxide, tetrahydrofuran and N-vinylcarbazole. The dication salt is more reactive than the cation radical salt. The calculated propagation rate constant (K_p) for polymerization of cyclohexene oxide by the cation radical and dication salts (X- = SbF₆-) of TPDA where, 2.71×10² and 5.51×10² M sec^-1, respectively.
