Abstract

Abstract Azlactone-functional polymer beads are useful reactive supports for the attachment of functional materials to provide novel adduct beads. The adduct beads are useful as complexing agents, catalysts, polymeric reagents, chromatographic supports, and as enzyme- or other biomacromolecule-bearing supports. Novel carboxylate-functional polymer beads, are intermediates in the preparation of the azlactone-functional beads. Azlactone-functional beads have units of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R 1 is H or CH 3 , R 2 and R 3 independently can be an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 14 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 5 to 12 ring atoms, an arenyl group having 6 to 26 carbon and 0 to 3 S, N, and nonperoxidic O heteroatoms, or R 2 and R 3 taken together with the carbon to which they are joined can form a carbocyclic ring containing 4 to 12 ring atoms, and n is an integer 0 or 1, the azlactone functional beads having more than 5 and up to 99 molar parts of crosslinking monomer incorporated therein.
