Summary
Linear and three-arm star hydroxy-telechelic polyisobutylenes have been quantitatively esterified with pyromellitic dianhydide in the presence of 4-N,N′-dimethylaminopyridine in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature. Chain extension occurred only under reflux conditions (67°C). In the presence of chromium acetyl acetonate catalyst at 140°C insoluble networks were obtained within minutes.
