Ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide with rare earth aryloxides substituted by various alkyl groups

<正>Rare earth aryloxides substituted by various alkyl groups[Ln(OAr)_3]such as methyl,isopropyl and tertbutyl,were used as single component catalysts to affect ring-opening polymerization of L-lactide(LLA).The catalytic activity, polymerization characteristics,polymerization kinetics and the mechanism were studied.It was found that the catalytic activity of rare earth aryloxides is influenced by both the structure and the number of alkyl groups on the phenyl ring.The stronger the electron-donation ability of the alkyl group,the higher the catalytic activity will be.An increase in the number of the substitute group will result in a higher catalytic activity.Lanthanum tris(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenolate)[La(OTTBP)_3] exhibits the highest activity among all lanthanum aryloxides.According to the ~1H-NMR data,it was proposed that the LLA polymerization proceeded via a coordination-insertion mechanism involving cleavage of acyl-oxygen bond of the lactide.

Fluoropolymers: An Explorer's Vantage Point

A functional cyclic carbonate, 5-methyl-5-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,3-dioxan-2-one (MBC), was utilized in the synthesis of novel poly(ester-carbonates) containing pendent carboxylic acid groups. Copolymers with ε-caprolactone (CL) and L-lactide (LLA) were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) using either an Al-alkoxide (solution) or Sn(Oct)₂-alcohol (bulk) initiating system. Analysis of the copolymers revealed a random distribution of the comonomer units along the polymer chain. The copolymers exhibited amorphous character at low MBC incorporations despite the crystalline nature of homo-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and homo-poly(L-lactide) (PLLA). Removal of the benzyl protecting group by hydrogenolysis yielded carboxylic acidfunctional copolymers. It was observed that the benzyl ester group of MBC became susceptible to transesterification reactions at ROP temperatures ≥ 135°C, and the corresponding copolymers were insoluble in both organic and aqueous solvents. It is proposed that carboxylic acid functionality will allow an improvement in the biodegradability and physical properties of PCL and PLLA and possibly improve their utility for biomedical applications such as time-released drug delivery. Moreover, polymerization of comonomers at high temperature may present a pathway toward the synthesis of new biodegradable hydrogels.     

Strontium‐based initiator system for ring‐opening polymerization of cyclic esters

An amino isopropoxyl strontium (Sr‐PO) initiator, which was prepared by the reaction of propylene oxide with liquid strontium ammoniate solution, was used to carry out the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of cyclic esters to obtain aliphatic polyesters, such as poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(L ‐lactide) (PLLA). The Sr‐PO initiator demonstrated an effective initiating activity for the ROP of ε‐caprolactone (ε‐CL) and L‐lactide (LLA) under mild conditions and adjusted the molecular weight by the ratio of monomer to Sr‐PO initiator. Block copolymer PCL‐b‐PLLA was prepared by sequential polymerization of ε‐CL and LLA, which was demonstrated by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and gel permeation chromatography. The chemical structure of Sr‐PO initiator was confirmed by elemental analysis of Sr and N, ¹H NMR analysis of the end groups in ε‐CL oligomer, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The end groups of PCL were hydroxyl and isopropoxycarbonyl, and FTIR spectroscopy showed the coordination between Sr‐PO initiator and model monomer γ‐butyrolactone. These experimental facts indicated that the ROP of cyclic esters followed a coordination‐insertion mechanism, and cyclic esters exclusively inserted into the Sr–O bond. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Titanium‐mediated [CpTiCl2(OEt)] ring‐opening polymerization of lactides: A novel route to well‐defined polylactide‐based complex macromolecular architectures

Among three cyclopentadienyl titanium complexes studied, CpTiCl₂(OEt), containing a 5% excess CpTiCl₃, has proven to be a very efficient catalyst for the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of L ‐lactide (LLA) in toluene at 130 °C. Kinetic studies revealed that the polymerization yield (up to 100%) and the molecular weight increase linearly with time, leading to well‐defined PLLA with narrow molecular weight distributions (M_w/M_n ≤ 1.1). Based on the above results, PS‐b‐PLLA, PI‐b‐PLLA, PEO‐b‐PLLA block copolymers, and a PS‐b‐PI‐b‐PLLA triblock terpolymer were synthesized. The synthetic strategy involved: (a) the preparation of OH‐end‐functionalized homopolymers or diblock copolymers by anionic polymerization, (b) the reaction of the OH‐functionalized polymers with CpTiCl₃ to give the corresponding Ti‐macrocatalyst, and (c) the ROP of LLA to afford the final block copolymers. PMMA‐g‐PLLA [PMMA: poly(methyl methacrylate)] was also synthesized by: (a) the reaction of CpTiCl₃ with 2‐hydroxy ethyl methacrylate, HEMA, to give the Ti‐HEMA‐catalyst, (b) the ROP of LLA to afford a PLLA methacrylic‐macromonomer, and (c) the copolymerization (conventional and ATRP) of the macromonomer with MMA to afford the final graft copolymer. Intermediate and final products were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and size exclusion chromatography, equipped with refractive index and two‐angle laser light scattering detectors. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Organic/inorganic hybrid star-shaped block copolymers of poly(l-lactide) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) with a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane core: Synthesis and self-assembly

The star-shaped organic/inorganic hybrid poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) was prepared using octa(3-hydroxypropyl) polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane as initiator via ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of l-lactide (LLA). The molecular weight of POSS-containing star-shaped hybrid PLLA (POSSPLLA) can be well controlled by the feed ratio of LLA to initiator. The POSSPLLA was further functionalized into the macromolecular reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) agent for the polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), leading to the POSS-containing star-shaped organic/inorganic hybrid amphiphilic block copolymers, poly(l-lactide)–block–poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (POSS(PLLA–b–PNIPAM)). The self-assembly behavior of POSS(PLLA–b–PNIPAM) block copolymers in aqueous solution was investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). DLS showed the PNIPAM block in the aggregates is temperature-responsive and its phase-transition is reversible. TEM proved that the star-shaped POSS(PLLA–b–PNIPAM) amphiphilic block copolymers can self-assemble into the vesicles in aqueous solution. The vesicular wall and coronas are composed of the hydrophobic POSS core and PLLA, and hydrophilic PNIPAM blocks, respectively. Therefore, POSSPLLA and POSS(PLLA–b–PNIPAM) block copolymers, as a class of novel organic–inorganic hybrid materials with the advantageous properties, can be potentially used in biological and medical fields.
