“…The infrared spectra of the compound (5) illustrated the clear distinguishing absorption bands at 1764, 1716, and 1685 cm -1 which are belong to (C=O) ester, ʋ(C=O) imide, and ʋ(C=O) ketone, respectively. Likewise, the main absorption bands at 2943-2910 cm -1 due to C-H aliphatic groups, and band of (C≡N) group at 2241 cm -1 , further absorptions bands seemed at 1602-1630 cm -1 , 1452-1510 cm -1 , 1267 cm -1 , and 1078 cm -1 that are belong to ʋ (C=C) chalcone, ʋ (C=C) aromatic, asymmetric and symmetric ʋ (C-O-C) cm -1 , respectively [20,21]. 1 H-NMR spectrum of polymer (5) displayed a signal at δ = 1.36-2.34, δ = 3.35, and δ = 3.86 ppm which are due to (CH2) protons, (O=CCH3) protons, and (OCH3) protons, while signals fit to (C=C) aromatic protons seemed at δ = 6.88-8.1 ppm.…”
