Abstract New diimide–dicarboxylic acids, ie 4‐phenyl‐2,6‐bis(4‐trimellitimidophenyl)pyridine and 4‐ p ‐biphenyl‐2,6‐bis‐(4‐trimellitimidophenyl)pyridine, were synthesized by the condensation reaction of 4‐phenyl‐2,6‐bis(4‐aminophenyl)pyridine and 4‐ p ‐biphenyl‐2,6‐bis(4‐aminophenyl)pyridine with trimellitic anhydride in glacial acetic acid or dimethylformamide. The monomers were fully characterized by FT‐IR and NMR spectroscopies, and elemental analyses. A series of novel poly(amide–imide)s with inherent viscosities of 0.68–0.87 dl g −1 was prepared from the two diimide–diacids with various aromatic diamines by direct polycondensation. The poly(amide–imide)s were characterized by FT‐IR and NMR spectroscopies. The λ max data for the resulting poly(amide–imide)s were in the range of 260–292 nm. These polymers exhibited good solubilities in polar aprotic solvents. The 10 % weight loss temperatures are above 485 °C under a nitrogen atmosphere. Copyright © 2004 Society of Chemical Industry
