Notes:
Styrene was copolymerized in bulk with a number of esters of benzylidenecyanoacetic acid. The kinetic scheme of all pairs fitted the improved scheme of copolymerization, taking into account the effect of the penultimate unit. The Alfrey-Price Q and e values were calculated. Using the modified Taft equation, log (1/r1) = ρ*σ* + δEs, it was found that the relative reactivities of the ester monomers toward the polystyryl radical were correlated by the polar substituent constants σ* of the ester alkyl groups (ρ* = 0.14) and not by their steric substituent constants Es (δ = 0.008).
