Draw the structure of the polymer that results from anionic polymerization of p-trichloromethylstyrene using ethylene oxide as the electrophile to terminate the chain.
The reaction of urea and formaldehyde role="math" localid="1648635328169" forms a highly cross-linked polymer used in foams. Suggest a structure for this polymer. [Hint: Examine the structures of Bakelite (Figure 30.7) and Melmac (Problem 30.58).]
Rank the following compounds in order of increasing ability to undergo anionic chain-growth polymerization.
