Hallo friends
I have gone through a patent CN101875004A the inventor had attached iminodiacetonitrile to a chloromethlated polymer bead and described chelating ion exchange resin contain the copolymer of the styrene-divinylbenzene of formula (I) and formula (II)
Can any body help me mechanism of the proposed structure. The nitrogen of imino group of diacetonitrile is rearranged to convert NH2C[CH2-C(NH2)(NOH)]2 attached to benzene group of polymer.
