Abstract

The role of ethyl sulphate as catalyst in the polymerization of N­-vinykarbazole was studied in closed and open systems using 1,2-dichloroethane as solvent, at room temperature. It was found that this compound is a very poor initiator since it must be used in very high concentrations in arder to obtain a significant amount of polymer. Water is a powerful poisoning agent in this sys­tem since traces of moisture completely inhibit the polymerization. An inter­pretation of the results is given, based on ester initiation, but the possibility of impurities being the real catalyst can not be discarded.
