Abstract

Dental compositions based on an at least bifunctional or polyfunctional acrylic-acid and/or methacrylic-acid esters, which contain an initiator system for radical polymerization and which additionally contain a compound of the general formula ##STR1## in which: Ar represents aryl or substituted aryl, R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 represent hydrogen, aryl or substituted aryl, straight-chain or branched chain C.sub.1-18 -alkyl, C.sub.1-18 -alkoxyl or C.sub.1-17 -alkoxycarbonyl, in which alkyl and alkoxyl can be substituted by halogen or aryl, in which, R.sup.1 or R.sup.2, when represented by aryl or substituted aryl, C.sub.1-18 -alkyl or C.sub.1-18 -alkoxyl, can be linked with Ar by a single-bond and in which, Ar, when represented by phenyl, C.sub.1-18 -alkylphenyl, C.sub.1-18 -alkoxylphenyl, carboxyl-C.sub.1-17 -alkylphenyl or halogenphenyl, R.sup.2 can be represented by --O--, which is linked with the phenyl or phenyl moiety of Ar to a benzofuran, and in which at least one of R.sup.1 to R.sup.3 represents H, and at least one of R.sup.1 to R.sup.3 represents aryl or aryl substituted by a straight-chain or branched-chain C.sub.1-18 -alkyl, C.sub.1-18 -alkoxyl, carboxyl-C.sub.1-17 -alkyl or halogen. As a result of the content of a compound (I) the setting phase of the dental compositions is lengthened.
