Abstract Carbocyclic alkyl acrylates and vinyl esters of the general formula: where A is acryloxy (CH2 CHCOO-), methacryloxy (CH2 C(CH3)COO-), or carbovinyloxy (CH2 CHOCO-), R1 is a cycloaliphatic or aromatic group, R2 is a hydrogen atom or lower alkyl, and R3 is an alkylene having at least five carbon atoms, ARE PREPARED, FOR EXAMPLE, BY ALCOHOLYSIS OF LOWER ALKYL ACRYLATES WITH CYCLOALIPHATIC- OR AROMATIC-SUBSTITUTED ALKANOLS OR BY ACYLATION OF SAID ALKANOLS WITH ACRYLOYL OR METHACRYLOYL CHLORIDE, OR BY VINYL ESTER INTERCHANGE OF LOWER VINYL ESTERS WITH CYCLOALIPHATIC- OR AROMATIC-SUBSTITUTED ALKANOIC ACIDS, SAID CARBOCYCLIC ALKYL ACRYLATES AND VINYL ESTERS BEING POLYMERIZABLE MONOMERS USEFUL IN FORMING POLYMERS HAVING UTILITY, FOR EXAMPLE, AS PRESSURE SENSITIVE ADHESIVES.
