Modification and photostabilization of low density polyethylene film by photodecomposition of various diazo-compounds and methyl azidocarboxylate

Various diazo-compounds, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl diazoacetate (PMPDA), 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl diazoacetate (TMPDA), methyl diazoacetate (MDA), 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl 2-diazo-3-methyloxycarbonylpropionate (PMPMDS), 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl 2-diazo-4-methyloxycarbonylbutanoate (PMPMDP), and one azide, methyl azidocarboxylate (MAC), were successfully prepared and grafted on polyethylene films by UV light (λ > 210 nm) activation. The treated films were characterised by FT-IR spectroscopy and contact angle measurements. Ab-initio quantum mechanical calculations allowed simulating the IR absorption spectra of the polymer grafted species. These last and the related grafting yields are discussed with reference to the diazo-compound structure and concentration. Up to 8.6 mol% of bonded groups (grafted groups/ethylene monomeric unit) were found without affecting the polymer molecular weight distribution, as shown by GPC analysis. All modified films bearing HAS groups showed very high photo-stability.     

Vinyl ethers and sulfides containing antioxidant functional groups

Methods for the synthesis of compounds combining in the molecule fragments of known antioxidants with reactive vinyloxy and vinylthio groups have been developed. Transesterification of methyl 3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate with 2-(vinyloxy)- or 2-(vinylthio)-ethanol furnished the high yields of 2-(vinyloxy)- and 2-(vinylthio)ethyl 3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionates. The reaction of 2-[(vinyloxy)ethoxymethyl]- and 2-[(vinylthio)-ethoxymethyl]oxiranes with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol and 4-aminodiphenylamine proceeds with the oxirane ring opening and leads to the corresponding vinyloxy and vinylthio derivatives of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol and mono- and bisvinyloxy and -vinyl- thio derivatives of 4-aminodiphenylamine at the primary amino group.     

Synthesis and cytotoxicity studies of new 1,2,4-thiadiazole derivatives and their zinc complexes

A new polyfunctional ligand of the thiadiazole family was synthesized. Cytotoxic properties with respect to leukemic cell lines, radiation stability, predicted permeability through the blood–brain barrier and cardiotoxicity of the new ligand and its precursor were determined. New zinc complexes with N-{2-[5-(3-chloro-4-methylphenylamino)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-3-yl]-1-methylethyl}-N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl)-amine as the ligand have been obtained.     

Conformation of the piperidine ring: Part IV. Investigations of 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine derivatives*

Methods of synthesis of 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine(1), 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine (2) and 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl(3) are described. Interaction of the axial hydroxyl group with axial methyl groups in a chair form of these compounds causes a downfield shift of the methyl proton NMR signal of about 0.2 ppm. IR spectra of 1 and 2 indicate a considerable contribution in solution of non-chair forms stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds. In 3 only intermolecular hydrogen bonds were found. The crystal and molecular structure of 2 have been determined by direct methods and refined to R = 0.0468. The molecules exist in the solid state in a chair conformation only. Van der Waals interactions of bulky substituents hinder a close approach of neighbouring molecules necessary for the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

Synthesis of a water-soluble macromolecular light stabilizer containing hindered amine structures

A novel water-soluble macromolecular light stabilizer was synthesized by grafting 2-chloro-4,6-bis- [(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl)amino]-l,3,5-triazine onto polyvinylamine.The intermediate 2- chloro-4,6-bis-[(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl)arnino]-1,3,5-triazine and the obtained macromolecular light stabilizer were characterized by ~1H NMR,HRMS,IR and UV spectroscopy.Cotton fabrics dyed with C.l.Reactive Yellow 145,C.I.Reactive Red 195 and C.I.Reactive Blue 19 were finished with the macromolecular light stabilizer,and the lightfastness of the dyes was tested.The results showed that the lightfastness of the reactive dyes was improved by 0.5-1.0 grade after being finished and the macromolecular light stabilizer exhibited good wash fastness and thermal stability.     

General methodology for the chemoselective N-alkylation of (2,2,6,6)-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol: Contribution of microwave irradiation

A convenient method to access a broad variety of N-alkyl-(2,2,6,6)-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol compounds is reported. The thermal treatment of a mixture of (2,2,6,6)-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol and allyl or benzyl bromide derivatives gave the corresponding N–alkylated compounds in good yields while leaving the hydroxyl functional group intact. Whereas 40?h were needed to reach complete conversion, microwave irradiation allowed the reaction time to be reduced (20?min) and improved the yields in most cases.     

Synthesis and structure of redox derivatives of 4-(2-Amino-2-oxoethyl)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl

According to X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and ¹H NMR spectra 2-(1-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl)acetamide, 4-(2-amino-2-oxoethyl)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yloxyl, and 4-(2-amino-2-oxoethyl)-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperidinium perchlorate in the crystalline state and in solution possess the chair conformation, equatorial orientation of CH₂C(O)NH₂ group, and differ by the geometry of the N¹ atom of the heterocycle. At growing oxidation state of the piperidine nitrogen atom the pyramidal location of substituents at N¹ in the hydroxyl derivative changes to weakly pyramidal in the piperidinoxyl and turned into planar in the oxoammonium cation. Simultaneously the N¹-O¹ bond shortens transforming from an ordinary (1.451 Å) through a sesquialteral (1.289 Å) into a double (1.189 Å) bond. The insignificant changes in the structure of compounds in the transition piperidinoxyl-oxopiperidinium cation correspond to the low energy of the transition process and result in the ease of the redox-reactions involving this pair.     

3-Tetrahydrofurfuryloxy-2-Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate: Synthesis,Characterization, Homopolymerization,and Copolymerization

Abstract

3-Tetrahydrofurfuryloxy-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate monomer was prepared from methacrylic acid, tetrahydrofurfuryl alchol, and epichlorhydrin. Homopolymerization and copolymerization with (2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-yl)methyl methacrylate and N-vinyl pyrrolidone monomers were carried out in 1,4-dioxane solution at 60°C using benzoyl peroxide as initiator. Infrared, proton and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance techniques were used in characterizations of the monomer, the homopolymer and the copolymers were determined by DSC technique. The copolymer compositions were estimated from 1H-NMR spectra. The reactivity ratios in copolymerization of 3-tetrahydrofurfuryloxy-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate and (2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-yl) methyl methacrylate were calculated by both Kelen-Tüdos and Fineman-Ross methods.     

Interaction of chlorine dioxide with nitroxyl radicals

The formation of charge transfer complexes between chlorine dioxide and nitroxyl radicals (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 4-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 4-methoxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 4-acetylamido-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-4-phenyl-3-imidazolin-1-oxyl, and bis(4-methoxyphenyl) nitroxide) in acetone, acetonitrile, n-heptane, diethyl ether, carbon tetrachloride, toluene, and dichloromethane was found by spectrophotometry at –60—+20 °C. The thermodynamic parameters of complex formation were determined. The radical structure affects its complex formation ability. The charge transfer complex is transformed into the corresponding oxoammonium salt.     

Synthesis and evaluations of bisphosphonate‐containing monomers for dental materials

Two new bismethacrylamide ( 1 , 2 ) and two new methacrylamide ( 3 , 4 ) dental monomers were synthesized. In each group, one monomer contains a bisphosphonate group, the other a bisphosphonic acid group. Monomer 1 and 3 were synthesized by amidation of 2‐(2‐chlorocarbonyl‐allyloxymethyl)‐acryloylchloride and methacryloyl chloride with tetraethyl aminomethyl‐bis(phosphonate) and converted to the bisphosphonic acid monomers 2 and 4 by hydrolysis with trimethylsilyl bromide. Monomer 1 (m.p.: 71–72 °C), monomer 3 ( 33–34 °C), and monomer 4 (no m.p.) were obtained as white solids and monomer 2 a viscous liquid, soluble in water. Homopolymerization of 1 gave crosslinked polymers, indicating its low cyclization tendency. The photopolymerization studies indicated that its copolymerizability with 2,2‐bis[4‐(2‐hydroxy‐3‐methacryloyloxy propyloxy) phenyl] propane and 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) without changing their rates and conversions significantly means that it could be used as a biocompatible crosslinker. Although monomer 2 showed low polymerizability, because of its good performance in terms of solubility, hydrolytic stability, hydroxyapatite interaction, acidity, and copolymerizability with HEMA, it shows potential to be used in self‐etching dental adhesives. The thermal polymerization of 3 resulted in soluble polymers and evaluation of monomer 4 in terms of solubility, acidity, and copolymerizability with HEMA indicated its potential as an adhesive monomer. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of a new monomer with pendant hindered amine group

A new monomer, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinyl m-isopropenyl-α, α-dimethylbenzyl carbamate, was synthesized by direct addition of 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinol to m-isopropenyl-α, α-dimethylbenzyl isocyanate in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate catalyst at elevated temperatures. It was characterized by FT-IR, ¹H-NMR. MS, and elemental analysis. It is a potential hindered amine light stabilizer as it contains the 2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidine moiety and its vinylic functionality makes it polymerizable.     

Nernstian adsorbate-like bulk layer of organic radical polymers for high-density charge storage purposes

Redox polymer layers with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl-4-yl (TEMPO) groups showed nernstian adsorbate-like electrochemical behaviors up to submicrometer thicknesses, based on a fast charge propagation within the bulk layer and persistency in electrolyte solutions.     

Synthesis of a new intercalating nucleic acid analogue with pyrenol insertions and the thermal stability of the resulting oligonucleotides towards DNA over RNA

Abstract  

A new intercalating nucleic acid monomer Y was obtained via alkylation of pyren-1-ol with (S)-(+)-2-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)ethanol under Mitsunobu conditions followed by hydrolysis with 80% aqueous acetic acid to give a diol which was tritylated with 4,4′-dimethoxytrityl chloride followed by treatment with 2-cyanoethyltetraisopropylphosphordiamidite in the presence of N,N′-diisopropylammonium tetrazolide. In this way the monomer Y was obtained as its dimethoxytrityl-protected phosphoramidite building block for standard DNA synthesis. The corresponding oligonucleotides from Y have nearly identical hybridization properties with those of intercalating nucleic acid (INA) where neighboring oxygen and carbon atoms are interchanged in the linker. The synthesis of monomer Y avoids the use of allergic intermediates which are a problem in the synthesis of INA.     

Synthesis and biological activity of 1-(aryloxy)-3-(6-chloro-4,4-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-2-yl)propan-2-ols

Treatment of 1-(4-chlorobenzylamino)-2-methylpropan-2-ol with concentrated sulfuric acid at 0°C gave 6-chloro-4,4-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline which reacted with (aryloxymethyl)oxiranes to afford new propan-2-ol derivatives of the tetrahydroisoquinoline series, 1-(aryloxy)-3-(6-chloro-4,4-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-2-yl)propan-2-ols. Some of the synthesized compounds or their hydrochlorides showed moderate adrenergic blocking and sympatholytic activities.     

Synthesis and polymerization of some optically active 2- and 1,2-substituted butadienes

Dehydration of (S)-3,5-dimethyl-1-hepten-3-ol gave: (3E)- (I) and (3Z)-(5S)-3,5-dimethyl-1,3-heptadienes (II) and 2-[(S)- 2-methylbutyl]-1,3-butadiene (III). 2-[(S)-1-Methylpropyl]-1,3-butadiene (IV) was also prepared similarly by dehydration of (S)-3,4-dimethyl-1-hexene-3-ol. Monomers I–IV we polymerized in the presence of the TiCl₄–Al(i-C₄H₉)₃ catalyst system and in emulsion with K₂S₂O₈ as initiator. Monomer IV was also polymerized in the presence of butyllithium. Specific rotations of polymers are of the same order of magnitude as that of monomers, with exception of polymers prepared by stereospecific polymerization of (S)-I and (S)-II. The acetone-soluble fraction of these polymers has a molar rotation similar to that of monomer, while the acetone-insoluble part has a lower rotation ([M]_D of monomer +53.2°; [M]_D of polymer, +5.9°).     

Synthesis and photopolymerizations of new phosphonated monomers for dental applications

Three novel phosphonated methacrylate monomers have been synthesized and studied for use in dental applications. Two of the monomers were synthesized from the reactions of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) with (diethoxy‐phosphoryl)‐acetic acid (monomer 1 ) and (2‐hydroxy‐ethyl)‐phosphonic acid dimethyl ester (monomer 2 ). These monomers showed high crosslinking tendencies during thermal bulk and solution polymerizations. The third monomer (monomer 3 ) was prepared by the reaction of bisphenol A diglycidylether (DER) with (diethoxy‐phosphoryl)‐acetic acid and subsequent conversion of the resulting diol to the methacrylate with methacryloyl chloride. The homopolymerization and copolymerization behaviors of the synthesized monomers were also investigated with glycerol dimethacrylate (GDMA), triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA), and 2,2‐bis[4‐(2‐hydroxy‐3‐methacryloyloxy propyloxy) phenyl] propane (bis‐GMA) using photodifferential scanning calorimetry at 40 °C using 2,2′‐dimethoxy‐2‐phenyl acetophenone (DMPA) as photoinitiator. Monomer 1 showed polymerization rate similar or greater than dimethacrylates studied here but with higher conversion. The maximum rate of polymerizations decreased in the following order: 1 ～TEGDMA>GDMA～bis‐GMA～ 3 > 2 . A synergistic effect in the rate of polymerization was observed during copolymerizations. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 2290–2299, 2008     

Stabilising effect of monomers,homopolymers and copolymers of vinyl derivatives of sterically hindered amines on the photo-oxidation of polypropylene

Vinyl derivatives of sterically hindered amines, N-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl)methacrylamide, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl acrylate and methacrylate and 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidyl acrylate and methacrylate were prepared. Monomers, homopolymers and copolymers with dodecyl methacrylate (DMA) and octadecyl acrylate (ODA) were tested as stabilisers of the photo-oxidation of polypropylene film. The copolymers exhibited higher efficiency and lower extractability. The photostabilising efficiency increased in the order: homopolymer < monomer < copolymer with DMA < copolymer with ODA.     

Structure and exchange in silicon-linked tetraradicals

The EPR spectroscopy, crystallography, and magnetic susceptibility of tetrakis(N-oxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl)silane and tetrakis(4-N-tert-butyl-N-aminoxylphenyl)silane show that silicon acts as a weak intramolecular exchange linker for polynitroxides, although both tetraradicals show onset of inter-spin exchange at reduced temperatures.
