Abstract

A process for the free radical initiated polymerization of unsaturated species characterized by the use of compound of Formula (I) as chain transfer agents: ##STR1## wherein: X is selected from hydrogen; CN; optionally substituted aryl; COOH; COOR; C(O)NHR.sup.6 ; C(O)NR.sup.7 R.sup.8 ; and halogen; Q is selected from COOR.sup.1 ; CN; and C(O)NR.sup.7 R.sup.8 ; Y is selected from hydrogen; C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkyl; C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkyl substituted with one or more substituents selected from hydroxy, amino, C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkoxy, C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkoxycarbonyl, halogen, CN and optionally substituted aryl; C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkenyl; and C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkynyl; Z is selected from COOR.sup.2 ; CN; and optionally substituted aryl; R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are the same or different and are selected from hydrogen C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl and halogen; or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together with carbon atom to which they are attached form part of a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring structure; and the other substituents are as defined in the text.
