Novel 1,2-Bismethacrylate-3-Eugenyl Propane for Resin Composites: Synthesis, Characterization, Rheological, and Degree of Conversion.

ABSTRACT: This work aimed to synthesize a novel dimethacrylated-derivative of eugenol (Eg) (termed EgGAA) as potential biomaterial for certain applications such as dental fillings and adhesives. EgGAA was synthesized through a two-step reaction: (i) a mono methacrylated-eugenol (EgGMA) was produced via a ring-opening etherification of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) with Eg; (ii) EgGMA was condensed with methacryloyl chloride into EgGAA. EgGAA was further incorporated in matrices containing BisGMA and TEGDMA (50:50 wt%) (TBEa), in which EgGAA replaced BisGMA as 0-100 wt% to get a series of unfilled resin composites (TBEa0-TBEa100), and by addition of reinforcing silica (66 wt%), a series of filled resins were also obtained (F-TBEa0-F-TBEa100). Synthesized monomers were analyzed for their structural, spe
