Two bishydroxy azomethine monomers were synthesized and reacted with dichloro-phenyl phosphine oxide by the interfacial polycondensation method using a phase transfer catalyst at 0°C. The polymers were characterized by IR, 1H-NMR, 31P-NMR, elemental analyses and X-ray diffraction study. These polymers are soluble in chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, such as CH2Cl2, CHCl3 as well as polar aprotic solvents such as DMF, DMAC, NMP, DMSO. Thermal and flammability studies were carried out by TGA, DTA and limiting oxygen index (LOI) measurements. The polymers are self-extinguishing and begin to lose weight at around 290°C in air.
