Synthesis and Thermal Properties of Monodispersed Telechelic Diols Prepared from Radical Telomerization of Undecylenol with Novel Dithiols

Abstract

The synthesis of novel monodispersed telechelic diols from the radical telomerization of undecylenol with new α,ω-dithiols was investigated. These diols are semi-crystalline and exhibit a thermal stability much higher than that of commercially available polydispersed diols.
