Acylated and hydroxylated polyamides derived from L-tartaric acid

• A series of polyamides 6,4 were prepared from 1,6-hexanediamine and active esters of 2,3-di-O-acylated l-tartaric acid by polycondensation in solution. Both O-alkoyl and O-benzoyl esters were used as hydroxyl protecting groups. The resulting acylated polytartaramides were found to be semicrystalline polymers with Tm between 100 and 200°C and Tg slightly above 100°C. Controlled hydrolysis of the ester side group led to the preparation of poly(hexamethylene l-tartaramide)s with different content in free hydroxyl groups. These polyamides continue being crystalline but their properties largely differ from those displayed by their parent acylated polymers.
