Abstract

A fluorosulfonyl group-containing compound having a high polymerization reactivity, a process for its production, a sulfonyl group-containing polymerizable monomer led from the sulfonyl group-containing compound, and a polymer obtainable by polymerizing the sulfonyl group-containing polymerizable monomer

Claims (25)

1. A process for producing a fluorosulfonyl group-containing polymer, comprising:

polymerizing at least one member of compound (7-1), or

polymerizing at least one member of compound (7-1) and at least one member of a polymerizable monomer which is copolymerizable with compound (7-1):

wherein:

R AF is a bivalent organic group

R BF , R CF and R DF are, independently, a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a monovalent organic group.

2. A process for producing a sulfonate or sulfonic group-containing polymer, comprising:

subjecting to alkali hydrolysis fluorosulfonyl groups of the fluorosulfonyl group-containing polymer produced by the process of claim 1 ,

optionally followed by acid treatment.

3. A fluorosulfonyl group-containing polymer, comprising:

polymerized monomer units of at least one member of compound (7-1), or

polymerized monomer units of at least one member of compound (7-1) and monomer units of at least one member of a polymerizable monomer which is copolymerizable with compound (7-1), wherein compound (7-1) is:

wherein:

R AF is a bivalent organic group

R BF , R CF and R DF are, independently, a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a monovalent organic group.

4. The fluorosulfonyl group-containing polymer according to claim 3 , which has an average molecular weight of from 5×10 3 to 5×10 6 and contains from 0.1 to 99.9 mol % of the monomer units having polymerized at least one member of a polymerizable monomer which is copolymerizable with compound (7-1).

5. A fluorosulfonic group-containing polymer comprising:

monomer units represented by the following formula, or

such monomer units and monomer units of another monomer which is copolymerizable with such monomer units:

wherein M is a hydrogen atom or a counter ion, wherein

R AF is a bivalent organic group

R BF , R CF and R DF are, independently, a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a monovalent organic group.

6. The fluorosulfonic group-containing polymer according to claim 5 , which has an average molecular weight of from 5×10 3 to 5×10 6 and contains from 0.1 to 99.9 mol % of the monomer units of another copolymerizable monomer.

7. A compound represented by the following formula (7-1A):

wherein R AF10 is a C 1-20 perfluoroalkylene group or a C 1-20 perfluoro(etheric oxygen atom-containing alkylene) group.
