Synthesis and characterization of N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl) cinnamamide as a photo-responsive monomer
Open accessAbstract
N,N-Bis(2-hydroxyethyl) cinnamamide (BHECA), a diol monomer with a pendant photo-responsive cinnamamide group, was successfully synthesized in high yield from methyl cinnamate (MC) and diethanolamine (DEA) under mild conditions. This ammonolysis approach is characterized by readily available and safe raw material, high yield and easy separation. Also, it does not require the use of an organic solvent. The product was characterized with element analysis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, MS, DSC and TGA. Its photo-response was tested by ultraviolet absorption. BHECA is able to undergo reversible [2+2] cycloaddition under alternating >260 nm and <260 nm ultraviolet irradiation and, therefore, appears to be a potential functional monomer for synthesis of novel photo-responsive polymers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
