The differences in the polymerization abilities of N-vinylformamide (NVF) and N-vinylisobutyramide (NVIBA) and the synthesis of their copolymers were studied. The polymerization abilities were fairly good and quite similar to those of N-vinylacetamide (NVA), a monomer in the same class as N-vinylalk

✦ Synopsis
Thermosensitive and redox-active polymers were prepared by copolymerization of N-ethyl-or N,N-diethylacrylamides with vinylferrocene (VFc). LCST (lower critical solution temperature) of the aqueous copolymer solution was decreased by increasing the ferrocene content in the copolymer. The oxidation of ferrocene led to a significant increase in LCST due to the transition from hydrophobic to hydrophilic character of the ferrocene moiety in the copolymer. The ferrocene content in the copolymer increases with increasing differences between the LCST's of the oxidation and reduction states. The transition could be made reversible by redox reaction using L- ascorbic acid as an oxidant and cerium sulfate as a reductant.
