Notes:
3,3,3-Trichloropropylene oxide (TCPO) is a monomer which has the combination of a highly reactive epoxide group and a stable trichloromethyl group. The epoxy group will undergo ring opening polymerizations with itself and with a host of other compounds to yield polymeric materials. Water, alcohols, phenols, amines, carboxylic acids and many other compounds react with TCPO with the aid of Lewis acid type catalysts. The electron-withdrawing influence of the trichloromethyl group, steric effects and the oxirane ring have a strong influence on the course of reactions, which are often radically different from that encountered with the simpler alkylene oxide monomers.
