Effects of Leaving Group Ability and Microstructure on the Reactivity of Halogenated Poly(isobutylene-co-isoprene)

Halogenation of poly(isobutylene-co-isoprene) (IIR) increases its reactivity towards sulphur and other nucleophiles. Currently brominated (BIIR) and chlorinated (CIIR) derivatives are commercially available; however, an iodinated derivative has been briefly investigated. The effects of leaving group...
