Abstract

Abstract Phenylisocyanuric acid is reacted with acrylonitrile in the presence of N-benzyltrimethyl ammonium hydroxide; 40% in methanol, in an inert solvent at 75°C. to 150°C. to produce 1,3-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate. The 1,3-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate is then heated with a mineral acid to produce 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl-5-phenylisocyanurate. A novel polyester of the formula ##SPC1## Is made wherein N=2, M is a diol having at least two carbon atoms, and X is a whole number greater than 1 by condensing 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate with a polyol such as 1,6-hexanediol.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
A process for preparing a novel polyester which comprises reacting phenylisocyanuric acid with acrylonitrile in the presence of N-benzyltrimethyl ammonium hydroxide; 40% in methanol, in an inert reaction medium at a temperature of about 75°C. to 150°C. to form the intermediate 1,3-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate, hydrolyzing said intermediate in the presence of an acid to yield 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate, and condensing 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate with a diol of two to ten carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
A process for preparing a novel polyester which comprises reacting phenylisocyanuric acid with acrylonitrile in the presence of N-benzyltrimethyl ammonium hydroxide; 40% in methanol, in an inert reaction medium at a temperature of about 75°C. to 150°C. to form the intermediate 1,3-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate, hydrolyzing said intermediate in the presence of an acid to yield 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate, and condensing 1,3-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5-phenylisocyanurate with a diol of two to ten carbon atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process in accordance with claim 1 wherein the inert reaction medium is dimethylformamide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein said diol is 1,6-hexanediol.
