The synthesis, photoinitiation and copolymerization of a series of monomers that efficiently photoinitiate free-radical polymerization was investigated. A number of monomer systems were examined as possible photoinduced initiating monomers. The rapid copolymerization of the monomers with an electron-rich vinyl ether demonstrated the potential of vinyl ester-based initiating monomers for use in a wide variety of polymerization processes. It was concluded that the initiating monomers can provide an opportunity for applications where residual photoinitiating species are undesireable in the final cured films.
