Polymerization of acetylenes with rare earth coordination catalysts

The polymerization of acetylene and its derivatives by rare earth coordination catalysts and the characterization of the polymers so obtained in our laboratory are reviewed. Because of the metallic conductivity possessed by doped polyacetylene and the unique properties such as conductivity (semiconductivity), paramagnetism, migration and transfer of energy and chemical reactivity and complex formation ability often shown by acetylenic polymers, which seem promising as specialty polymers, there has been considerable interest in the polymers of acetylene and its derivatives. A wide variety of catalyst systems have been developed for the polymerization of acetylenes. But there has been no information concerning the use of rare earth compounds as catalysts in the polymerization of acetylene and its derivatives. We for the first time in 1981 have succeeded in the polymerization of acetylene with rare earth coordination catalysts, which in turn is a development based upon earlier work on the diene polymerization using rare earth coordination catalysts(Ref. 1). Using rare earth catalysts, acetylene can be polymerized conveniently into high cis polyacetylene films with metallic sheen at room temperature and phenylacetylene can also be polymerized into high molecular weight, high cis polyphenylacetylene films at ambient temperature. Thus new varieties of polyacetylenes have been developed and a novel family of coordination catalysts consisting of a rare earth compound plus trialkyl aluminum for the polymerization of acetylenes has been exploited. This article reviews our studies on the polymerization of acetylene and its derivatives with rare earth coordination catalysts and on the characterization of the polyacetylenes prepared.     

π-烯丙基稀土配合物的合成、结构及其催化烯烃聚合反应机理的研究——Ⅱ.LiY(π-C_3H_5)_4·2.5D催化异戊二烯聚合反应机理的研究

<正> 在稀土配位共轭双烯烃聚合反应机理的研究中,一般认为按π-烯丙基机理进行,但迄今为止尚缺乏足够的实验证据。我们曾用~1H-NMR、一维~(13)C-NMR和二维~(13)C-NMR系统地研究了(CF_3COO)_2LnCl·EtoH-(i-Bu)_2AIH-共轭双烯烃(Ln=La、Pr、Nd、Sm、Tb、Ho、Sc和Y)均相聚合体系的聚合机理,提出了η~4-共轭双烯(顺式-反式-)和η~3-烯丙基(同式-对式-)机理。但由于广烯丙基稀土配合物稳定性差,难于合成,加之聚合体系中很难直接分离出π-烯丙基稀土配合物活性体,为此,至今尚未能用模型π-烯丙基稀土配合物对上述机理进行研究。我们已合成一系列π-烯丙基稀土配合物LiLn

A comparison of polymerization characteristics and mechanisms of ε-caprolactone and trimethylene-carbonate with rare earth halides

Characteristics and mechanisms of the ring opening-polymerizations of ε-caprolactone (CL) and trimethylene carbonate (TMC) with rare earth halides have been compared for the first time. It has been found that rare earth halides show high catalytic activities for the polymerization of TMC, but very low activities for that of CL polymerization. The copolymerization of CL and TMC can proceed only in the presence of high contents of TMC in the comonomer feed. The copolymerization rate decreases rapidly with increasing molar fraction of CL in the feed. The mechanism study by IR, ¹H-, ¹³C-, and ³¹P-NMR spectra shows that the first step reaction of the polymerization of TMC or CL with rare earth halide is the complexation of monomer to the rare earth ion. The strong coordination of TMC to rare earth ion induces the ring-cleavage of TMC and generation of the cationic species, which initiate the polymerization of TMC via a cationic process. However, the polymerization of CL with rare earth halide is an “activated-hydrolysis” process, in which rare earth catalyst does not initiate the polymerization but serves as an activator of CL. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone using rare earth tris(4-tert-butylphenolate)s as a single component initiator

Ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone has been carried out by using single component rare earth tris(4-tert-butylphenolate)s initiators for the first time. The influences of rare earth element, solvent, monomer and initiator concentration as well as reaction time on the polymerization were investigated. The kinetics indicated that the polymerization rate is first-order with respect to monomer concentration and initiator concentration, respectively. The overall activation energy of the ring-opening polymerization amounts to 51.9 kJ/mol. Mechanism studies showed that monomer inserted into the growing chains with the acyl-oxygen bond scission rather than the break of alkyl-oxygen bond.

POLYMER-SUPPORTED RARE EARTH CATALYSTS FOR STYRENE POLYMERIZATION

The neodymium complex supported on styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer (SMA·Nd) has been prepared for the first time and found to be a highly effective catalyst for the polymerization of styrene. The SMA·Nd polymeric complex is characterized by IR and its catalytic activity, and the polymerization features have been investigated in comparison with that of the conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts. When [Nd]=1×10~(-3) mol/L, [M]=5mol/L, Al/Nd=170(mol ratio) and CCl_4/Nd=50(mol ratio), the polymerization conversion of styrene gets to 51.6% in six hours, and the catalytic activity reaches 1852 gPS/gNd, which is much higher than that of conventional rare earth catalysts. The polymerization reaction has an induction period and shows some characteristics of chain polymerization. The polymerization rate is the first order with respect to the concentration of styrene monomer. Addition of FeCl_3 does not suppress the polymerization.

Ring opening polymerization of propylene oxide in the presence of a new type of catalytic system composed of chitosan-supported rare earth complex, triisobutyl aluminium, and acetylacetone and its kinetics have been studied for the first time. It has been found that the characteristics of this catalytic system are of high catalytic activity, of higher stereoselectivity, and of a high molecular weight polymer of 2 × 10⁶. Kinetic studies show that the polymerization rate is first order with respect to monomer concentration and catalyst concentration, respectively. The apparent activation energy of the polymerization reaction is 37.1 kJ/mol. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 35 : 2177–2182, 1997

Synthesis and characterization of highly random copolymer of ϵ-caprolactone and D,L-lactide using rare earth catalyst

Highly random copolymers of ϵ-caprolactone (CL) and D ,L -lactide (LA) were synthesized by a new catalyst system, rare earth chloride–propylene oxide (PO) system. In the presence of propylene oxide, all rare earth chlorides tested are highly effective for the copolymerization. The influences of reaction conditions on the copolymerization catalyzed by the NdCl₃-5PO system have been investigated in detail. The reactivity ratios of ϵ-caprolactone and D ,L -lactide were determined and show that the copolymerization with this new rare earth catalyst is closer to ideal copolymerization than reported for other catalysts. The microstructure of copolymer analyzed by ¹³C-NMR shows that the monomer units in the copolymer is near to completely random distribution with a short average monomer sequence length. The DSC measurement confirms the high randomness of the chain structure. The mechanism studied by NMR indicates that the rare earth alkoxide generated by the reaction of rare earth chloride with propylene oxide initiates the copolymerization, and then proceeds via a “coordination-insertion” mechanism with acyl-oxygen bond cleavage of CL and LA. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Applications of Calixarenes in Polymer Synthesis

Summary: The applications of calixarenes in polymer synthesis have been reviewed. Calixarenes have been used as ligands to prepare rare earth calixarene complexes. A series of rare earth calixarene complexes have been synthesized and employed as efficient catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene, styrene, butadiene, propylene oxide, styrene oxide, trimethylene carbonate, and 5,5-dimethyl trimethylene carbonate. On the other hand, the synthesis and characterization of star-shaped polymers with calixarene as core molecules are also described.     

RING-OPENING POLYMERIZATION OF TRIMETHYLENE CARBONATE CATALYZED BY NOVEL SINGLE COMPONENT RARE EARTH CALIXARENE COMPLEXES

In this paper, ring-opening polymerization of trimethylene carbonate (TMC) with rare earth (Nd, Y, La) p-tert-butylcalix[n]arene (n=4, 6, and 8) complexes as catalysts has been studied. Poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) with Mv of 21,400 was produced by bulk polymerization under the conditions as follows: [TMC]0/[Nd] (molar ratio)=1000,80℃,8h. Mechanism study reveals that the polymerization proceeds via a coordination mechanism.     

Access to Hydroxy‐Functionalized Polypropylene through Coordination Polymerization

Preparation of polyethylenes containing hydroxy groups has been already industrialized through radical copolymerization under harsh conditions followed by alcoholysis. By contrast, hydroxy‐functionalized polypropylene has proven a rather challenging goal in polymer science. Propylene can't be polymerized through a radical mechanism, and its coordination copolymerization with polar monomers is frustrated by catalyst poisoning. Herein, we report a new strategy to reach this target. The coordination polymerization of allenes by rare‐earth‐metal precursors affords pure 1,2‐regulated polyallenes, which are facilely transformed into poly(allyl alcohol) analogues by subsequent hydroboration/oxidation. Strikingly, the copolymerization of allenes and propylene gives unprecedented hydroxy‐functionalized polypropylene after post‐polymerization modification. Mechanistic elucidation by DFT simulation suggests kinetic rather than thermodynamic control.
