Abstract

BY EM FILACHIONE, JH LENGEL AND CH FISHER a-Carbalkoxyalkyl acrylates and methacrylates have been prepared by treating alkyl lactates with acrylyl chloride, methacrylyl chloride or methacrylic anhydride2s3 and by heating potassium acrylate or methacrylate with methyl chloroacetate3 or methyl a-bromob~ tyrate.~ The acrylates and methacrylates of this type thus far prepared polymerize readily, and in this respect ...
