Abstract: | A propargyl ether‐containing benzoxazine (4) was prepared from a potassium carbonate‐catalyzed nucleophilic substitution of propargyl bromide and a phenolic OH‐containing benzoxazine (3) , which was prepared from 1‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐1‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐1‐(6‐oxido‐6H ‐dibenz <1,2> oxaphosphorin‐6‐yl)ethane (1) by a three‐step procedure. The curing reactions of (4) were monitored by IR and DSC. A reaction mechanism was proposed based on the observation. Benzoxazines (3) and (4) were applied as epoxy curing agents. The microstructure and the structure‐property relationship of the resulting thermosets are discussed. The double‐strand structure in (4) ‐cured epoxy thermosets afforded higher crosslinking density, and led to higher thermal properties. In addition, the (4) ‐cured epoxy thermosets possess half the amount of highly polar hydroxyl groups than those of the (3) ‐cured epoxy thermosets, resulting in a lower dielectric constant, dissipation factor, and water absorption. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
