Living radical polymerization of diisopropyl fumarate to obtain block copolymers containing rigid poly(substituted methylene) and flexible polyacrylate segments

Living radical polymerizations of diisopropyl fumarate (DiPF) are carried out to synthesize poly(diisopropyl fumarate) (PDiPF) as a rigid poly(substituted methylene) and its block copolymers combined with a flexible polyacrylate segment. Reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization is suitable to obtain a high‐molecular‐weight PDiPF with well‐controlled molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, and chain‐end structures, while organotellurium‐mediated living radical polymerization (TERP) and reversible chain transfer catalyzed polymerization (RTCP) give PDiPF with controlled chain structures under limited polymerization conditions. In contrast, controlled polymerization for the production of high‐molecular‐weight and well‐defined PDiPF is not achieved by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and nitroxide‐mediated radical polymerization (NMP). The block copolymers consisting of rigid poly(substituted methylene) and flexible polyacrylate segments are synthesized by the RAFT polymerization. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Ring‐Opening Metathesis Polymerization of Biomass‐Derived Levoglucosenol

The readily available cellulose‐derived bicyclic compound levoglucosenol was polymerized through ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) to yield polylevoglucosenol as a novel type of biomass‐derived thermoplastic polyacetal, which, unlike polysaccharides, contains cyclic as well as linear segments in its main chain. High‐molar‐mass polyacetals with apparent weight‐average molar masses of up to 100 kg mol^?1 and dispersities of approximately 2 were produced despite the non‐living/controlled character of the polymerization due to irreversible deactivation or termination of the catalyst/active chain ends. The resulting highly functionalized polyacetals are glassy in bulk with a glass transition temperature of around 100 °C. In analogy to polysaccharides, polylevoglucosenol degrades slowly in an acidic environment.     

丁基锂引发的活性宽分布聚双烯烃的合成

<正> 用烷基锂引发的丁二烯“活性”聚合,通常只能得到分子量分布较窄的聚合物。这类聚合物的门尼粘度较高,不易加工,且易冷流。为了解决这些问题,一般是合成分子量分布较宽且有一定支化的聚合物。但在以往的合成宽分布聚合物的方法中,大多只能得到非“活性”聚双烯烃,因而无法进行“活性”高分子的一些典型反应,如嵌段、接枝及偶     

Conducting Block Copolymer Nanowires Containing Regioregular Poly(3‐Hexylthiophene) and Polystyrene

Grignard Metathesis polymerization (GRIM) for the synthesis of regioregular poly(3‐alkylthiophenes) proceeds via a “living” chain growth mechanism. Due to the “living” nature of this polymerization regioregular poly(3‐alkylthiophenes) with predetermined molecular weight, narrow molecular weight distributions and desired chain end functionality are now readily available. Allyl terminated poly(3‐hexylthiophene) was successfully used as a precursor for the synthesis of di‐block copolymers containing polystyrene. The addition of “living” poly(styryl)lithium to the allyl terminated regioregular poly(3‐hexylthiophene) generated the di‐block copolymer. Poly(3‐hexylthiophene)‐b‐polystyrene was also synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization. Integration of poly(3‐hexylthiophene) in di‐block copolymers with polystyrene leads to the formation of nanowire morphology and self‐ordered conducting nanostructured materials.     

Reversible Addition Fragmentation Chain Transfer Mediated Dispersion Polymerization of Styrene

Polystyrene microspheres have been synthesized by the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) mediated dispersion polymerization in an alcoholic media in the presence of poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) as stabilizer and 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile as a conventional radical initiator. In order to obtain monodisperse polystyrene particles with controlled architecture, the post–addition of RAFT agent was employed to replace the weak point from the pre-addition of RAFT. The feature of preaddition and postaddition of RAFT agent was studied on the polymerization kinetics, particle size and its distribution and on the particle stability. The living polymerization behavior as well as the particle stability was observed only in the postaddition of RAFT. The effects of different concentration on the postaddition of RAFT agent were investigated in terms of molecular weight, molecular weight distribution, particle size and its distribution. The final polydispersity index (PDI) value, particle size and the stability of the dispersion system were found to be greatly influenced by the RAFT agent. This result showed that the postaddition of RAFT agent in the dispersion polymerization not only controls the molecular weight and PDI but also produces stable monodisperse polymer particles.     

Atom transfer radical polymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate catalyzed by FeCl2/iminodiacetic acid

The atom transfer radical polymerization of styrene and methyl methacrylate with FeCl₂/iminodiacetic acid as the catalyst system in bulk was successfully implemented at 70 and 110 °C, respectively. The polymerization was controlled: the molecular weight of the resultant polymer was close to the calculated value, and the molecular weight distribution was relatively narrow (weight‐average molecular weight/number‐average molecular weight ∼ 1.5). Block copolymers of polystyrene‐b‐poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(methyl methacrylate)‐b‐poly(methyl acrylate) were successfully synthesized, confirming the living nature of the polymerization. A small amount of water added to the reaction system increased the reaction rate and did not affect the living nature of the polymerization system. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Supported atom transfer radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate mediated by CuBr–tetraethyldiethylenetriamine grafted onto silica gel

Silica‐gel particles grafted with tetraethyldiethylenetriamine were synthesized as support for CuBr for the heterogeneous atom transfer radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA). The immobilized CuBr mediated a living polymerization of MMA, demonstrated by an increase in molecular weight with conversion and low polydispersity. An excessive amount of catalyst (typically, CuBr/initiator = 1.5) was required to achieve a living process because of the limited mobility of the supported catalyst. The silica‐gel concentration had a strong effect on the polymerization. The recycled catalyst still mediated a living process but showed a reduced catalytic activity due to the presence of Cu(II). After being regenerated by a reaction with Cu(0), the catalyst regained its activity. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 39: 1051–1059, 2001

Efficient Synthesis of Poly(acrylic acid) in Aqueous Solution via a RAFT Process

The direct polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) in aqueous solution for high molecular weight by means of living radical polymerization is still difficult. Here, AA was polymerized homogeneously in water by a reversible addition-fragmentation transfer polymerization (RAFT) in the presence of a water-soluble trithiocarbonate as a RAFT agent. Various ratios [AA]:[RAFT agent] were investigated to aim at different molecular weights. The polymerization exhibited living free-radical polymerization characteristics at different ratios [AA]: [RAFT agent]: controlled molecular weight, low polydispersity and well-suited linear growth of the number-average molecular weight, M _n with conversion. The chain transfer to solvent or polymer was suppressed during the polymerization process, thus high linear PAA with high molecular weight and low PDI can be obtained. Moreover, using the generated PAA as a macro RAFT agent, the chain extension polymerization of PAA with fresh AA displayed controlled behavior, demonstrated the ability of PAA to reinitiate sequential polymerization.

Living radical miniemulsion polymerization by RAFT in the presence of beta-cyclodextrin

Living radical polymerization of styrene in a miniemulsion by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) was successfully realized in the presence of beta-cyclodextrin (CD), using sodium dodecyl sulfate and hexadecane as surfactant and costabilizer, respectively. The drawback of instability (red layer formation) encountered in the living radical polymerization in emulsion or miniemulsion was overcome. The linear relationship between the monomer conversion and the molecular weight, as well as lower molecular weight distribution (MWD), shows that the polymerization process was under control. The addition of CD was found to have little influence on the polymerization rate. However, MWD of the polymer synthesized is obviously decreased. The mechanism of stability and controllability improvement in the presence of CD proposed that the complex formation between CD and RAFT agent or RAFT agent-ended oligomer increased their diffusion ability from monomer droplet to polymerization locus and improved the homogeneity of the RAFT agent level among the polymerization loci.     

Synthesis of polyacetals with various main‐chain structures by the self‐polyaddition of vinyl ethers with a hydroxyl function

To establish the optimum conditions for obtaining high molecular weight polyacetals by the self‐polyaddition of vinyl ethers with a hydroxyl group, we performed the polymerization of 4‐hydroxybutyl vinyl ether (CH₂?CH? O? CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂? OH) with various acidic catalysts [p‐toluene sulfonic acid monohydrate, p‐toluene sulfonic anhydride (TSAA), pyridinium p‐toluene sulfonate, HCl, and BF₃OEt₂] in different solvents (tetrahydrofuran and toluene) at 0 °C. All the polymerizations proceeded exclusively via the polyaddition mechanism to give polyacetals of the structure [? CH(CH₃)? O? CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂? O? ]_n quantitatively. The reaction with TSAA in tetrahydrofuran led to the highest molecular weight polymers (number‐average molecular weight = 110,000, weight‐average molecular weight/number‐average molecular weight = 1.59). 2‐Hydroxyethyl vinyl ether, diethylene glycol monovinyl ether, cyclohexane dimethanol monovinyl ether, and tricyclodecane dimethanol monovinyl ether were also employed as monomers, and polyacetals with various main‐chain structures were obtained. This structural variety of the main chain changed the glass‐transition temperature of the polyacetals from approximately ?70 °C to room temperature. These polyacetals were thermally stable but exhibited smooth degradation with a treatment of aqueous acid to give the corresponding diol compounds in quantitative yields. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Living/controlled copolymerization of acrylates with nonactivated alkenes

The living/controlled copolymerization of methyl acrylate with 1‐alkenes and norbornene derivatives through several radical polymerization techniques has been achieved. These techniques include atom transfer radical polymerization, reversible addition–fragmentation transfer polymerization, nitroxide‐mediated polymerization, and degenerative transfer polymerization. These systems display many of the characteristics of a living polymerization process: the molecular weight increases linearly with the overall conversion, but the polydispersity remains low. Novel block copolymers have been synthesized through the sequential addition of monomers or chain extension. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 42: 6175–6192, 2004     

Bifunctional 2‐(alkoxycarbonothioylthio)acetic acids for the synthesis of TiO2‐poly(vinyl acetate) nanocomposites via RAFT polymerization

Reversible addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer (RAFT) polymerization has been known as a convenient method for the synthesis of polymers of designed molecular structures. Of particular interest are bifunctional or multifunctional chain‐transfer agents (CTAs) which could be employed in the development of advanced materials via RAFT polymerization. In the present study, four bifunctional 2‐(alkoxycarbonothioylthio) RAFT CTAs with ? COOH functionalities containing methoxy, ethoxy, isopropoxy, and octyloxy groups, respectively, were synthesized and characterized by FTIR and NMR spectroscopy. Polymerizations of vinyl acetate using these CTAs exhibited increased molecular weight with consumption of monomer and relatively narrow dispersities, indicative of living polymerization behavior. The effect of the concentration of 2‐(ethoxycarbonothioylthio) acetic acid on the polymerization was examined, revealing that higher concentration of CTA led to lower molecular weight and narrower dispersity. As an example of the application of the synthesized bifunctional CTAs, TiO₂‐poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) nanocomposites were synthesized via a one‐pot process and characterized by TGA, DSC, TEM, and affinity test, suggesting attachment of PVAc onto the nano‐TiO₂ particles. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of α,ω-arylamine functionalized poly(dimethylsiloxane)s

This research has focused on the development of telechelic, aromatic amine functional, poly(dimethylsiloxane) oligomers without any aliphatic components in the polymer backbone. The intent is to produce flexible oligomers with enhanced thermal stability for incorporation into materials which will be processed at elevated temperatures. The poly(dimethylsiloxane)s have been synthesized using living polymerization of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane with protected aniline derivatives as initiators and termination reagents for the reactions. Low molecular weight oligomers prepared using the living polymerization method can be easily converted to a range of higher, controlled molecular weight materials in redistribution reactions. A basic tetramethylammonium siloxanolate catalyst in conjunction with octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane has been used for the equilibration procedure. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
