A PROCESS FOR THE PROTECTION OF ACID GROUPS IN POLYMERS

摘要

A process for the protection of acid group containing side chains and/or terminal acid groups on polymers by reaction of at least one polymer acid group of formula (I) wherein z represents with a monoacyloxysilyl compound of formula (II) while removing the formed acid group of formula (IV) R<6>C(O)OH from the system to produce at least one protected acid group of formula (III)
