Summary

1-Aza-3-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-2-one, an N-bridgehead bicyclic urethane, polymerized in bulk under the influence of dibutyltin oxide and p-toluenesulfonic acid. In solution the monomer polymerizes in the presence of phosphoric acid. This is only the second example of ring opening polymerization of a bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane. The driving force in the present case is thought to be the relief of strain energy in the monomer conferred by its chair-boat conformation.
