Abstract Disproportionation of the liquid mixed anhydride dimethacrylic sebacic (m‐SA) to methacrylic and polyanhydride oligomers, as well vinylic polymerization, can occur on workup storage at room temperature. Dimethacrylic 1,3‐bis( p ‐carboxyphenoxy) propane, being a solid, also disproportionate, but propensity do so is lower than for m‐SA. These events be suppressed with free‐radical inhibitors, inhibitor 2+3‐ t ‐butyl‐4‐methoxyphenol more effective stabilizer 4‐methoxyphenol 20 °C. ©...
