The kinetic features of reactions of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate with azide-containing oligodiols of the polyether nature and low-molecular-mass alcohols and diols containing primary and secondary OH groups in the presence of small amounts of cyclic azide-containing monomers have been studied. As evidenced by IR measurements, hydroxyl groups occur in the systems under study in the form of various associates involving system components. The activation effect of azide groups on the kinetics of urethane-formation has been established, and a feasible mechanism of this activation that relies on ideas concerning the role of associative interactions in the reaction system has been advanced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
