Description:
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The monomers chalcones derivatives were synthesized by the condensation reactions of the 4‐hydroxy benzaldehyde and vanillin with <jats:italic>p</jats:italic>‐hydroxyacetophenone. The monomers were polymerized with dibromoalkanes to give the co‐polyethers containing the photocrosslinkable α, β‐unsaturated carbonyl as photosensitizer group. The structure of polyether was characterized by <jats:sup>1</jats:sup>H NMR and <jats:sup>13</jats:sup>C NMR spectra. The thermal stability of the polymer was measured by thermogravimetric analysis. <jats:italic>The solubility</jats:italic> of the <jats:italic>polymer</jats:italic> in the organic <jats:italic>solvents</jats:italic> was also studied. The polymers have to be equipped with photosensitive functional groups applied in photopolymers technology.</jats:p>
