4-Methyl-1-vinylnaphthalene (4-MeV
1N) was synthesized by the dehydrochlorination of 4-methyl-1-(1-naphthylethyl)chloride, which had been prepared from 1-methylnaphthalene through the formation of intermediates, 4-methyl-1-acetonaphthone and 4-methyl-1-(1-naphthyl) ethanol. Cationic homopolymerization of 4-MeV
1N was carried out with titanium tetrachloride as a catalyst in dichloromethane at four different temperatures, ranging from -70℃ to 0℃. The conversion and the intrinsic viscosity were increased as the temperature decreased. The observed glass transition temperature of the homopolymer was 148℃. Copolymerization of 4-MeV
1N and styrene was also carried out at -50℃ under the same experimental condition. The copolymer composition was determined by UV spectroscopy. The reactivity ratios of 4-MeV
1N and styrene were estimated as r
l(4-MeV
1N)=4.00 and r
2(St)=1.75, respectively, by the Kelen-T d s method.
