POLYMERIZATION OF ALKYL ISOCYANATE CATALYZED BY LANTHANUM SCHIFF BASE COMPLEXES

Four Lanthanum Schiff-base complexes were synthesized,and the polymerizations of alkyl isocyanates were studied using these complexes as single component catalysts.Lanthanum Schiff-base complexes La(HSalen1～4)3 have been synthesized by metathesis reaction of anhydrous LaCl3 with Schiff-base sodium salts NaSalen.The complex La(HSalen2)3 with the formula of 3,5-tBu2-2-(O)C6H2CH=NC6H5]3La(THF) was characterized by X-ray diffraction,and the structure around Lanthanum center could be described as a pentagonal bipyramid.The polymerization of alkyl isocyanates was successfully carried out by using these complexes as single component catalysts,and the OC6H2CH=NC6H5]3La(THF) complex(La(HSalen1)3) shows the highest catalytic activity to the polymerization of isocyanates.The influences of polymerization temperature,polymerization time,the concentration of catalyst and monomer,and the polymerization solvent on the polymerization of hexyl isocyanate(HIC) catalyzed by La(HSalen1)3 were investigated.It was found that under the polymerization conditions examined,PHIC can be prepared under-40℃～20℃ with complex La(HSalen1)3 as catalyst.Due to the depolymerization,higher reaction temperature leads to low polymer yield and molecular weight of PHIC obtained.Confirmed by GPC analysis,prolonging polymerization time is also in favor of depolymerization,the GPC profile of PHIC prepared after 12 h polymerization indicates the exist of dimmers and trimers.PHIC could be prepared with yield of 75.5%,number-average molecular weight(Mn) of 6.00×104and MWD of 3.86 under the following optimum conditions: = 3.43 mol/L,La(HSalen1)3]= 8.58×10-3mol/L,polymerization at -40℃ for 12 h in toluene.
