α,ω‐Functionalized C19 Monomers

Abstract

High-oleic sunflower oil, a renewable resource, is efficiently incorporated into a sustainable and green chemical process: the synthesis of α,ω-functionalized C19 monomers. These monomers, derived from dimethyl 1,19-nonadecanedioate as a novel platform chemical, may find use as feedstock materials for the polymer industry.
