Abstract
The invention relates to novel alkoxy substituted maleimides of the formula ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkenyl, phenyl or phenylalkyl, and the organic radicals may furthermore carry inert substituents, and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkenyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -haloalkenyl, and alkoxy-substituted maleic anhydrides of the formula II ##STR2## where R.sup.2 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkenyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -haloalkenyl and Z is hydrogen, halogen or a radical OR.sup.3, where R.sup.3 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkenyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -haloalkenyl. The invention further relates to processes for preparing such maleimides I and the corresponding maleic anhydrides II and their use as graft monomers in graft polymers based on polyphenylene ethers.
