Reaction of poly(vinyl chloride) with magnesium and grignard reagents

Reaction of poly(vinyl chloride) with magnesium under various conditions was attempted, but poly(vinyl chloride) did not react with magnesium. The reactions of poly(vinyl chloride) with benzylmagnesium chloride and allylmagnesium chloride as Grignard reagents were carried out in tetrahydrofuran at reflux temperature. It was found that the chlorine atoms in the poly(vinyl chloride) were replaced by benzyl and allyl groups by the coupling reaction, and a small amount of Grignard reagent of poly(vinyl chloride) was formed by the magnesium–halogen exchange reaction. The extent of the substitution increased with increasing reaction time and concentration of the Grignard reagent.

Synthesis of poly(4-vinylbenzocyclobutene) and its reaction with dienophiles

4-Vinylbenzocyclobutene ( 1 ) was prepared by the nickel-catalyzed coupling reaction of 4-bromobenzocyclobutene with vinylbromide in 70% yield. Radical homopolymerization of 1 at 60°C for 24 h afforded poly(4 vinylbenzocyclobutene) [poly( 1 )] in 89% yield and radical copolymerizations of 1 with styrene (St) or methyl methacrylate (MMA) were carried out to obtain the corresponding copolymers. The Q = 1.07, e = 0.046. As a model reaction of the polymer reaction of the polymer reaction of poly( 1 ) and poly(4-vinylbenzocyclobutene-co-styrene) [copoly( 1 -St)] with dienophiles, the Diels-Alder reaction of benzocyclobutene with N-phenylmaleimide (MI) or maleic anhydride (MANH) was carried out to determine the optimum reaction conditions. Under the optimum condition, the Diels-Alder reaction of poly( 1 ) and copoly( 1 -St) with MI and MANH in the presence of 4-tert-butyl-catechol as an inhibitor were carried out to yield the corresponding polymers in good yields. The properties (solubilities, T_g, and temperature of 10% weight loss) of the products obtained from the polymer reaction were different from these of poly( 1 ). © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

An analysis of the kinetics of oxidation of ascorbate at poly(aniline)-poly(styrene sulfonate) modified microelectrodes

A detailed kinetic study is provided for the oxidation of ascorbate at poly(aniline)-poly(styrene sulfonate) coated microelectrodes. Flat films with a low degree of polymer spillover and a thickness much lower than the microelectrode radius were produced by controlled potentiodynamic electrodeposition. The currents for ascorbate oxidation are found to be independent of the polymer thickness, indicating that the reaction occurs at the outer surface of the polymer film. At low ascorbate concentrations, below around 40 mM, the currents are found to be mass transport limited. At higher ascorbate concentrations the currents became kinetically limited. The experimental data for measurements at a range of potentials are fitted to a consistent kinetic model and the results summarized in a case diagram. The results obtained for the poly(aniline)-(polystyrene sulfonate) coated microelectrode are compared to those for a poly(aniline)-poly(vinyl sulfonate) coated microelectrode and to the results of an earlier study of the reaction at poly(aniline)-poly(vinyl sulfonate) coated rotating disc electrodes. For poly(aniline)-poly(styrene sulfonate) the oxidation of ascorbate is found to proceed by one electron reaction whereas for poly(aniline)-poly(vinyl sulfonate) the reaction is found to be a two electron oxidation.     

Reaction of chlorine-containing polymers with living polymers

A graft polymer was prepared by means of the coupling reaction of chlorinated ethylene–propylene terpolymer with living polystyrene, obtained with a sodium–naphthalene complex as initiator, under various conditions; the grafting efficiency and the percentage of grafting are discussed. Poly(chloroprene), chlorinated butyl rubber, poly(vinyl chloride), poly(epichlorohydrin), and epichlorohydrin–ethylene oxide copolymer were also used as chlorine-containing polymers. The grafting efficiencies were found to be in the following order: chlorinated butyl rubber > poly(epichlorohydrin) > epichlorohydrin-ethylene oxide copolymer > chlorinated ethylene-propylene terpolymer > poly(chloroprene) > poly(vinyl chloride). A graft polymer was obtained from the reaction between chlorinated ethylene–propylene terpolymer and living poly(isoprene), with butyllithium in benzene. The undesirable metal–halogen interchange reaction was considerable.     

Studies of reactions with polymers. V. The reaction mechanism and resultant structure of PVA with PAN in DMSO without any catalyst

The reaction of polyacrylonitrile with poly(vinyl alcohol) in dimethyl sulfoxide without any catalyst was studied, and it showed that the adjacent nitrile groups on polyacrylonitrile could be linked up to form conjugated carbon-nitrogen sequence by the presence of poly(vinyl alcohol). However, no such reaction occurred when poly(vinyl alcohol) was replaced by i-propanol or poly(vinyl alcohol) graft copolymers. The structure of the resulting polymers were proposed by means of IR, UV, ¹H, and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies. On the basis of the results, the effect of polymer feed and polymerization condition on this reaction were discussed. The compositions were determined by elemental analysis. The viscosity and thermal analysis of the products were also determined. At feed weight ratios of poly(vinyl alcohol) to polyacrylonitrile above one-half, gels were obtained.     

Poly(ε‐caprolactone)‐Based Organogels and Hydrogels with Poly(ethylene glycol) Cross‐Linkings

Summary: The reaction of triphosgene with poly(ethylene glycol) yielded poly(ethylene glycol) dichloroformate. This difunctional cross‐linker was allowed to react with poly(ε‐caprolactone) bearing carbanionic sites obtained by activation with lithium diisopropylamide. The reaction resulted in the cross‐linking of poly(ε‐caprolactone) chains by poly(ethylene glycol) segments, giving copolymer networks that gel in both organic and aqueous media.

Attomole microarray detection of microRNAs by nanoparticle-amplified SPR imaging measurements of surface polyadenylation reactions

Multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) are detected in a microarray format using a novel approach that combines a surface enzyme reaction with nanoparticle-amplified SPR imaging (SPRI). The surface reaction of poly(A) polymerase creates poly(A) tails on miRNAs hybridized onto locked nucleic acid (LNA) microarrays. DNA-modified nanoparticles are then adsorbed onto the poly(A) tails and detected with SPRI. This ultrasensitive nanoparticle-amplified SPRI methodology can be used for miRNA profiling at attomole levels.     

New Dendrimers: Synthesis and Characterization of Popam - Pamam Hybrid Dendrimers

Recently developed multifunctional cancer therapeutic nano-device production is based on poly(amidoamine) PAMAM generation 5 (G5) dendrimer as a carrier 1-5. Scale up synthesis of this nano-device is limited because of long reaction sequence (12 reaction steps) and long and not easy work up of the products after each reaction step. Combination of poly(propyle-imine) and poly(amidoamine) synthesis can improve the production of the drug carrier.In this paper we give a general overview of the synthesis and characterization of a series of novel hybrid dendrimers which we coined as novel POMAM hybrid dendrimers, constructed from poly(propylene-imine) (PPI or POPAM) core and poly(amidoamine) PAMAM shells. The synthesis was accomplished by a divergent reiterating method involving repeating subsequent Michael addition and amidation reactions. Each generation of the newly synthesized dendrimer was characterized by using HPLC, GPC, NMR and AFM.     

The transacetalization reaction during the etherification of poly(oxymethylene)diol [α-hydro-ω-hydroxypoly(oxymethylene)] with orthoesters in the presence of lewis acids

A transacetalization reaction occurs during the etherification of poly(oxymethylene)diol [α-hydro-ω-hydroxypoly(oxymethylene)] with orthoesters and an important modification of molecular structure takes place. The intermediates formed during the transacetalization reaction are emphasized. The connection between this reaction and the other reactions during the etherification of poly(oxymethylene)diols is discussed.

Synthesis and characterization of poly(4-vinylpyridine) substituted with a novel betaine salt derived from 4,5-dicyanoimidazole

A novel betaine internal salt ( 3 ) has been synthesized by the reaction of pyridine with 1-methyl-2-bromo-4,5-dicyanoimidazole ( 1 ). The reaction of pyridine with 1 serves as a model for the reaction of poly(4-vinylpyridine) with 1 . The reaction of poly(4-vinylpyridine) with 1 gives betaine salt substituted polymers which were characterized by IR, NMR, UV-visible spectroscopy, and viscometry. The substituted polymers were compared to the model compound ( 3 ) and to unsubstituted poly(4-vinylpyridine) in order to determine polymer structure and the degree of substitution. One of the substituted polymers shows polyelectrolyte behavior. Thermal characterization of the substituted polymers shows two exothermic transitions at 260 and 340°C attributed to chemical reactions of the pendant groups.     

Synthesis of Soluble Poly(Divinylbenzene) Through Anionic Polymerizatio

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), in the presence of diisopropylamine (DPA), initiates the polymerization of 1,4-, or 1,3-divinylbenzene (DVB) to form a soluble poly(divinylbenzene). Initiation was confirmed to take place by addition of an alkylamino group to the DVB molecule. The population of the triad tacticity of the soluble poly(DVB) suggests the steric course of the polymerization reaction to proceed according to Bernoullian statistics with respect to the diad placements, m and r. The chain-transfer reaction was found to take place through proton transfer from DPA to the growing chain end. A kinetic study of the reaction between lithium alkylamide and poly(DVB) was carried out for comparison with some other styrene derivatives. The second-order rate constant (k) of the reaction between lithium diethylamide and the vinyl group of poly(DVB) was 1.19 × 10^?3 L·mol^?1 ·s^?1, which is only about one-fiftieth of that for 1,4-DVB. LDA was found to metalate the methyl group of 4-methylstyrene to form 4-vinylbenzyllithium without any side reaction. This carbanion has the structure of 10π-conjugation and is stable in the reaction system for more than 30 min. The vinylbenzyl anion is regarded as a model for the growing end of poly(DVB). On the basis of these results, the reason for formation of soluble poly(DVB) in the LDA-induced DVB polymerization is summarized as follows: (i) Relatively short life time of the growing carbanion owing to chain transfer by DPA; (ii) lower reactivity of the pendent vinyl groups of the soluble poly(DVB) compared with those of DVB monomer; and (iii) lowered reactivity of the growing carbanion, which has a stabilized 10π-conjugation.

Synthesis and properties of novel poly(arylene ether)s and poly(arylene thioether)s based on a pyridazine biphenol or a phthalazine biphenol

Novel sulfur‐containing biphenol monomers were prepared in high yields by the reaction of 4‐mercaptophenol with chloropyridazine or chlorophthalazine compounds. High‐molecular‐weight poly(arylene ether)s were synthesized by a nucleophilic substitution reaction between these sulfur‐containing monomers and activated difluoro aromatic compounds. The inherent viscosities of these polymers ranged from 0.34 to 0.93 dL/g. The poly(pyridazine)s exhibited glass‐transition temperatures greater than 165 °C. The poly(phthalazine)s showed higher glass‐transition temperatures than the poly(pyridazine)s. A polymer synthesized from a bisphthalazinebiphenol and bis(4‐fluorophenyl)sulfone had the highest glass‐transition temperature (240 °C). The thermal stabilities of the poly(pyridazine)s and poly(phthalazine)s showed similar patterns of decomposition, with no significant weight loss below 390 °C. The poly(phthalazine)s were soluble in chlorinated solvents such as chloroform, and the poly(pyridazine)s were soluble in dipolar aprotic solvents such as N,N′‐dimethylacetamide. The soluble poly(pyridazine)s and poly(phthalazine)s could be cast into flexible films from solution. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 45: 262–268, 2007     

A novel organic intercalation system with layered polymer crystals as the host compounds derived from 1,3-diene carboxylic acids

A new type of organic intercalation system using poly(muconic acid) and poly(sorbic acid) crystals as the host compounds is described. The layered polymer crystals as the host are derived from benzyl-, dodecyl-, or naphthylmethylammonium salts of (Z,Z)-muconic or (E,E)-sorbic acids by topochemical polymerization. The subsequent solid-state hydrolysis of the resulting ammonium polymer crystals provides the corresponding carboxylic acid polymer crystals. When alkylamines are reacted with poly(muconic acid) or poly(sorbic acid) crystals dispersed in methanol at room temperature for a few hours, the intercalation proceeds to give layered ammonium polymer crystals via solid-state reactions, in which the polymers maintain a layered structure throughout. The interplanar spacing value of the polymer crystals changes according to the size of the guest molecules; that is, it exactly depends on the carbon number of the alkylamines used for each reaction of poly(muconic acid) or poly(sorbic acid) crystals. The stacking structure of alkyl chains with a tilt in the intercalated alkylammonium layers exists irrespective of the chemical and crystal structures of the host polymers. The intercalation of higher alkylamines into poly(muconic acid) crystals proceeds fast and quantitatively, while the conversion is dependent on the reaction conditions such as the structure and amount of the amine and the reaction time during the intercalation with poly(sorbic acid) crystals, due to the difference in the repeating layered structures of these polymer crystals. Some functional amines are also used as the guest molecules for this organic intercalation system.     

Synthesis of photocrosslinkable polyesters by the Knoevenagel reaction

A new group of photocrosslinkable polyesters formed by the Knoevenagel reaction is described. The approach permits preparation of photoesensitive polymers, where physical properties can be potentially varied through choice of the polyol and the dicarboxylic acid. The following compounds were prepared and studied: (1) products from a Knoevenagel reaction of poly(trimethylopropane azelate cyanoacetate) with benzaldehyde, furaldehyde, and 2-ethylbutyraldehyde and (2) products from a Knoevenagel reaction of poly(1,3-propyl malonate) with benzaldehyde, p-methoxybenzaldehyde, and 2-ethylbutyraldehyde. Conventional unsaturated polyesters such as poly(1,3-propyl fumarate) and poly(1,3-propyl maleate) were prepared and used for comparison.     

A FOURIER TRANSFORM INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIC STUDY OF THE REACTION BETWEEN POLY (VINYL PYRIDINE)S AND EPOXY COMPOUNDS

Chemical reactions between poly (vinyl pyridine)s and 1, 4-butanediol diglycidyl ether and other epoxy compounds were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and other techniques. The epoxy group was found to react with the pyridine side group of poly (4-vinyl pyridine), forming crosslinked networks which contain cyclic amide structures. The reaction was also observed in the interracial region of poly(vinyl pyridine) and γ-glycidoxy propyl trimethoxysilane hydrolyzate (γ-GPS) coatings on PET fiber substrates. Poly(2-vinyi pyridine) does not show the same reaction.
