Features of the monomer association of higher N-alkylacrylamides and alkyl acrylates in toluene

By a combination of IR spectroscopy and computer modeling methods the content of various forms of monomeric associates in solutions of higher N-alkylacrylamides and higher alkyl acrylates in toluene has been evaluated. It is shown that the main form of monomeric associates in the systems studied are poly-associates of N-alkylacrylamides, formed due to hydrogen bonds involving amide groups. The cooperative interactions of the higher alkyl linear comonomer groups caused by the dispersion forces did not show their influence.
