Polyimides and the process for preparing polyimides having improved thermal-oxidative stability derived from the polymerization of effective amounts of one or more of the polyamines such as the aromatic diamines, one or more of the tetracarboxylic dianhydrides and a novel dicarboxylic endcap having a formula selected from the group consisting of:wherein R1 is either aradical where R is either hydrogen or an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbons, R2 is either OH, NH2, F, or Cl radical, R3 is either H, OH, NH2, F, Cl or an alkylene radical, R4 is either an alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, nitro, F, or Cl radical, and R5 is either H, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, aryloxy, nitro, F, or Cl radical. The polyimides are useful particularly in the preparation of prepregs and PMR composites.
