## Abstract The radical polymerization of a trimer of methyl acrylate was investigated in relation to the __steric hindrance‐assisted polymerization__ of an α‐(substituted methyl)acrylic ester. The trimer can also be regarded as a model of the unsaturated end group formed by the addition‐fragmentat

✦ Synopsis
Al~tract---Methyl a-p-chlorobenzylacrylate and methyl :t-p-methoxybenzylacrylate were synthesized from dimethylmalonate by well known organic reactions. Both monomers were polymerizcd by a free-radical mechanism in benzene and their ceiling temperaturc determined. Comparison of the ceiling temperatures with that of methyl ~-benzylacrylate seems to indicate that the differences in entropic factor for the polymerization of methyl x(p-substituted benzyl)acrylates might bc related to the differences in ceiling temperatures.

Polymerization and copolymerization of methyl a-(2-carbomethoxyethyl)acrylate (MMEA), which is known as a dimer of methyl acrylate, were studied in relation to steric hindrunce- assisted polymerization. The propagating polymer radical from MMEA was detected as a five-line spectrum and quantified by

## Abstract Tetraarylsuccinonitriles 1 show an atypical “stepwise” initiation mechanism in freeradical polymerization, particularly in the case of methyl methacrylate (MMA) as monomer. In the prior phase of the polymerization reaction very high concentrations of primary radicals lead to the formati
