Abstract
Abstract A method for preparing poly-N-alkenylamines having the following formula (I) ##EQU1## WHERE A is a tertiary aromatic or heterocyclic amine, connected to a carbon atom through nitrogen, R and R' are similar or different hydrogen or lower alkyl, and n is the degree of polymerization, consisting in that the secondary aromatic or heterocyclic amines or their derivatives, for example, diphenylamine, carbazole, phenthiazine, phenoxazine, 3-chloro- and 3,6-dichlorocarbazole are treated with aldehydes having the formula (II) RR'CH-CH=O, where R and R 1 are the substances specified above, or their polymers capable of depolymerizing in an acid medium, in the presence of acid catalysts, in organic solvents. The said polymers are prepared by a single-step process without the separation of any intermediate products; the products prepared possess photosensitive properties and can be used, for example, in electrophotography and related processes.
