| 摘要 |
<p>A method of making amide polymers with improved back-bone rigidity, stability and/or planarity through the promotion of intramolecular interactions is disclosed. Amide polymers (3b), in accordance with the embodiments of the invention, are formed using aromatic dicarboxylic acids and heterocyclic diamine precursors or reactive amino-acid heterocyclic precursors. The heterocyclic precursors used in the present invention have heterocyclic structures that include hetero-atoms in a position that is beta relative to one or more reactive amine groups. Preferably, the hetero-atoms are nitrogen atoms. In accordance with further embodiments, precursors include functional groups that promote inter-molecular interactions, intra-molecular interactions and/or enhance solubility of the amide polymers formed.</p> |
