## Abstract The photopolymerization of methylmethacrylate induced by pyrene, 1βacetylpyrene (AP), and 1β(bromoacetyl)pyrene (BP) has been investigated. Under all conditions employed, pyrene was completely ineffective. Introduction of a carbonyl and a bromo group in pyrene enhanced the polymerizatio

SYNOPSIS
T o establish their potential as source of biradicals to initiate free-radical polymerization, 2-methyl-and Z,Z,lZ-trimethylcyclododecanones were photolyzed in the presence of styrene. The initiation efficiency of both ketones is low-0.03. The molecular weight of the obtained polymer is ca. 25% higher than that obtained employing photoinitiators that produce monoradicals. This difference is explained in terms of a mixed polymerization mechanism comprising mono-and biradicals.

The polymerization rate of methyl methacrylate photoinitiated by p-nitroacetanilide in the presence of triethylamine was measured as a function of the amine concentration in different media. The polymerization is more efficient in nonpolar medium (benzene/monomer). ESR studies show the formation of
