Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Multifunctional Acylthiourea Polymers

Several thiourea polymers have been synthesized through the reaction of diamine with 1,4- or 1, 3- benzenedicarbonyl chloride and ammonium thiocyanate by solid-liquid phase transfer catalysis of polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400). The polymers were characterized and identified by elemental analysis, IR, 1HNMR and GPC. The multifunctional polymers have potential value as an ideal support for immobilized enzymes.
