Synthesis and properties of poly(thioether amide)s from 2,6-bis(acrylamido)pyridine and dithiols

Poly(thioether amide)s containing pyridine moieties in their backbone were obtained by the polyaddition of 2,6-bis(acrylamido)pyridine (2,6-BAAP), derived from 2,6-diaminopyridine and acryloyl chloride, with an aromatic or aliphatic dithiol. The influence of various reaction conditions on the polyaddition was investigated in comparison with the polyaddition of 1,3-bis (acrylamido)benzene (1,3-BAAB). 2,6-BAAP gave the polymer even in the absence of any initiator at lower temperatures while 1,3-BAAB did not, which was attributable principally to intramolecular base catalysis of the pyridine moieties. Basic additives effectively promoted the reaction rate and increased the chain length. Those facts and NMR of the resulting polymers indicated Michael-type polyaddition. The polymers from 2,6-BAAP were amorphous and gave transparent and tough films having a high refractive index exceeding 1.7. GPC and DSC characterizations were also made. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The IR spectra and hydrogen bonding of toluene-2,6-bis(methyl) and 4,4′-diphenylmethane-bis(methyl) carbamates

The IR spectroscopy has been used to study models of polyurethanes containing different hard segments. The spectra of toluene-2,6-bis(methyl) and 4,4′-diphenylmethane-bis(methyl) carbamates at different temperatures were studied. The absorption curves of the free and associated carbamate molecules were compared with experimental IR spectra. The characteristic features of toluene-2,6-bis(methyl) carbamate and methyl-N-methyl carbamate clusters were revealed. The IR spectra for the two most stable toluene-2,6-bis(methyl) carbamate conformations were compared. The origin of the multiplet structure of bands in the experimental IR spectra of polyurethanes was discussed. The results obtained can be used for the analysis of the chemical and physical transformations in urethanes and polyurethanes.

New poly(amide–imide) syntheses. XXI. Synthesis and properties of aromatic poly(amide–imide)s based on 2,6-bis(4-trimellitimidophenoxy)naphthalene and aromatic diamines

A novel polymer-forming diimide–diacid, 2,6-bis(4-trimellitimidophenoxy)naphthalene, was prepared by the condensation reaction of 2,6-bis(4-aminophenoxy)naphthalene with trimellitic anhydride (TMA). A series of novel aromatic poly(amide–imide)s containing 2,6-bis(phenoxy)naphthalene units were prepared by the direct polycondensation of the diimide–diacid with various aromatic diamines using triphenyl phosphite (TPP) in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP)/pyridine solution containing dissolved calcium chloride. Thirteen of the obtained polymers had inherent viscosities above 1.01 dL/g and up to 2.30 dL/g. Most of polymers were soluble in polar solvents such as DMAc and could be cast from their DMAc solutions into transparent, flexible, and tough films. These films had tensile strengths of 79–117 MPa, elongation-at-break of 7–61%, and initial moduli of 2.2–3.0 GPa. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction revealed that some polymers are partially crystalline. The glass transition temperatures of some polymers could be determined with the help of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) traces, which were recorded in the range 232–300°C. All the poly(amide–imide)s exhibited no appreciable decomposition below 450°C, and their 10% weight loss temperatures were recorded in the range 511–577°C in nitrogen and 497–601°C in air. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Chromium(III) complexes bearing bis(benzotriazolyl)pyridine ligands: synthesis,characterization and ethylene polymerization behavior

Reaction of benzotriazole with 2,6-bis(bromomethyl)pyridine and 2,6-pyridinedicarbonyl dichloride yields the tridentate ligands 2,6-bis(benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine (1) and 2,6-bis(benzotriazol-1-ylcarbonyl) pyridine (2). The molecular structures of the ligands were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. These ligands react with CrCl₃(THF)₃ in THF to form neutral complexes, [CrCl₃{2,6-bis(benzotriazolyl)pyridine-N,N,N}] (3, 4), which are isolated in high yields as air stable green solids and characterized by mass spectra (ESI), FTIR spectroscopy, UV–Visible, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and magnetic measurements. After reaction with methylaluminoxane (MAO), the chromium(III) complexes are active in the polymerization of ethylene showing a bimodal molecular weight distribution. A DFT computational investigation of the polymerization reaction mechanism shows that the most likely reaction pathway originates from the mer configuration when the spacer is CH₂ (complex 3) and from the fac configuration when the spacer is CO (complex 4).

Iron(II)–ethylene polymerization catalysts bearing 2,6-bis(imino)pyrazine ligands: Part II. Catalytic behaviour, homogeneous and heterogeneous insights

A series of new iron(II) complexes bearing tridentate pyrazine-bis(2,6-arylimino) ligands where the aryl groups are 1-naphthyl, 2,6-dimethylphenyl, and 2,6-diisopropylphenyl have been used as ethylene polymerization catalysts after activation with alkylaluminiums.

Varying the steric bulkiness of the aromatic groups in the tridentate ligands and the polymerization conditions affects the catalytic productivity.     

Synthesis, characterization and fluorescence properties of novel pyridine dicarboxylic acid derivatives and corresponding Tb(III) complexes

Two novel ligands containing two pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid conjugative units, 4-(2-(2,6-dicarbox-ypyridin-4-yl)vinyl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (L(1)) and 4-(4-(2-(2,6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (L(2)) and their complexes with Tb(III) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and NMR. The ligand synthetic route was optimized and the yield of ligands reached over 78% as a result of the Wittig-Horner reaction used. The fluorescent intensities of these complexes with corresponding complexes with single pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid unit was compared. The result has shown that the ligands with two pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid units are the excellent sensitizers to lanthanide fluorescence. Also, we investigated the fluorescence properties of these complexes in different solution and in different pH value. Due to their excellent green-emmiter, they would be a potential candidate material for applications in organic light-emitting devices and medical diagnosis.

Structural Characterization of (Arylimido)vanadium(V) Compounds with 2,6‐Difluorophenoxide Ligand

The (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)₃] was demonstrated to undergo ligand exchange reaction with one or two equivalents of 2,6‐difluorophenol, affording the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compounds, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)₂(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)] and [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(OiPr)(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)₂]. Their X‐ray crystallographic analyses elucidated the μ‐isopropoxido‐bridged dimeric structures, wherein each vanadium atom has a trigonal‐bipyramidal arrangement with the imido and bridging isopropoxide ligands in the apical positions. The isopropoxide ligand was selectively employed as a bridging ligand between two central vanadium atoms. On the other hand, the reaction of the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)VCl₃] and three equivalents of lithium 2,6‐difluorophenoxide gave the (arylimido)vanadium(V) compound, [(p‐MeOC₆H₄N)V(O‐2,6‐F₂Ph)₃]. In the crystal packing, the thus‐obtained compound showed a distorted trigonal‐bipyramidal environment at the vanadium atoms with the μ‐phenoxido‐bridged dimeric structure, wherein the 2,6‐difluorophenoxide ligand was found to serve as a bridging ligand.

The polymers were obtained in quantitative yields with inherent viscosities of 0.62–2.50 dL/g. Most of the polymers were soluble in aprotic dipolar solvents such as N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) and NMP, and they could be solution cast into transparent, flexible, and tough films. The casting films had yield strengths of 84–105 MPa, tensile strengths of 68–95 MPa, elongations at break of 8–36%, and tensile moduli of 1.4–2.1 GPa. The glass transition temperatures of the polyamides were in the range 155–225°C, and their 10% weight loss temperatures were above 505°C in nitrogen and above 474°C in air. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Tricyclic ligands on cyclam core and X-ray crystallographic structure of hexachloro-(1,11:4,8-bis(pyridine-2,6-diyl-bis(2-(N-(2-formidoylethylene)carbamoyl)ethylene))-1,8-diazonia-4,11-diazacyclotetradecane) - dimanganese(II) dimethanol dihydrate solvate

The synthesis of tricyclic compounds on functionalized cyclam core is described. The addition of four methyl acrylate molecules and consecutive condensation of this derivative with ethylenediamine resulted in formation of 1,4,8,11-tetrakis(2-(N-(2-aminoethyl)carbamoyl)ethyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (3). Compound 3 was the substrate for further condensation with dialdehydes: iso-phthaldialdehyde and 2,6-pyridinedicarbaldehyde, resulting in spontaneous macrocycle ring closure to give tricyclic derivatives: 1,11:4,8-bis(benzene-1,3-diyl-bis(2-(N-(2-formidoylethylene)carbamoyl)ethylene))-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (4) in the reaction of 3 with iso-phthaldialdehyde and three isomers: 1,4:8,11-bis(pyridine-2,6-diyl-bis(2-(N-(2-formidoylethylene)carbamoyl)ethylene))-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (5A), 1,11:4,8-bis(pyridine-2,6-diyl-bis(2-(N-(2-formidoylethylene)carbamoyl)ethylene))-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (5B), and 1,8:4,11-bis(pyridine-2,6-diyl-bis(2-(N-(2-formidoylethylene)carbamoyl)ethylene))-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (5C) when 2,6-pyridinedicarbaldehyde was used. The compounds 4, 5B, and 5C were identified crystallographically. The isolated 5A converted in solution into the mixture of 5B and 5C as monitored by the ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The tricycle 5 is able to accept two manganese(II) metal ions by reacting with manganese(II) dichloride with simultaneous diprotonation of 5. Structure of the resulting Mn₂(5BH₂)Cl₆·(CH₃OH)₂(H₂O)₂ was determined crystallographically.
