Investigation of bismaleimide containing naphthalene unit. II. Thermal behavior and properties of polymer

Crosslinking of 2,7-bis(4-maleimidophenoxy)naphthalene (BMPN) and 4,4-bismaleimi-dophenylmethane (BMPM) was investigated in the presence of 4,4-diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM) at the 2/1 molar ratio of bismaleimide/DDM. Their curing behaviors were characterized by infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The presence of a naphthalene group in the backbone of the bismaleimide increased the curing temperature and reduced the polymerization reactivity. The exotherm was shifted to a lower temperature as the amine addition lead to chain extension. Thermal behavior and properties of cured products were investigated by thermogravimetric analyses and dynamic mechanical analyses. Also, at this molar ratio, the properties of the BMPN/DDM showed better T_g, thermal decomposition temperature, and moisture resistance than the epoxy derived from 2,7-dihydroxynapthalene cured with DDM system (DGEDN/DDM). © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Thermal rearrangement of spiro[naphthalene(naphthopyranofurazan)]oxides to spiro[naphthalene(phenalenofurazan)oxides. A probable furazan oxide triggered tandem isomerisation process

Thermal rearrangement of (±)-spiro{naphthalene-1(2H),4′-(naphtho-[2′,1′:2,3]pyrano[4,5-c]furazan)}-2-one-11′-oxides in DMF or acetic anhydride at 140 °C gave an isomeric mixture of (±)-spiro{naphthalene-1(2H),1′-(5′-hydroxyphenalene[1,2-c]furazan)}-2-one-2′-oxides and 4′-oxides. The rearranged structure was confirmed from X-ray analysis and was consistent with the through space NOE data. The rearrangement is suggested to be an overall tandem isomerization process. Using variable temperature ¹H NMR spectroscopy the lower limit for the isomerisation barrier for a pair of tautomers was calculated to be 22 kcal mol⁻¹ at 423 K. The isomerisation equilibrium for a pair of isomers was studied by variable temperature ¹H NMR. The lower limit for the isomerisation barrier was calculated to be 22 kcal mol⁻¹ at 423 K. This low value may be indicative of the difficulty encountered in separating the isomers by chromatography. Semi-empirical AM1 and molecular mechanics calculations suggest that the (±)-spiro{naphthalene-1(2H),1′-(5′-hydroxyphenalene[1,2-c]furazan)}-2-one-2′-oxides are more stable than their 4′-oxide counterparts, in accordance to the X-ray structure. The lower population of the 4′-oxide isomers relative to that of the 2′-oxide isomers was explained in terms of an unfavourable intramolecular steric interaction found in the low energy structure of the former.     

Influence of additives on the crystal structure and melting behavior of poly(ethylene‐2,6‐naphthalene dicarboxylate)

The influence of additives on the crystal modification and melting behavior of poly(ethylene‐2,6‐naphthalene dicarboxylate) (PEN) was investigated with wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The addition of a nucleating promoter, Ceraflour 993, had no effect on the crystal modification and melting behavior of PEN crystallized under all chosen experimental conditions. However, the addition of a nucleating agent, sodium benzoate (SB), did affect the crystal modification and melting behavior of PEN when PEN/SB was crystallized at a higher temperature, but not at a lower temperature. A mixture of α and β modifications of PEN was obtained, and an overlapped dual melting peak was observed in DSC curves when PEN was crystallized at a higher temperature in the presence of SB, instead of a single crystal form and a single melting peak for the crystallization of pure PEN. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of a photochromic magnesium(II) coordination polymer based on a naphthalene diimide ligand

Naphthalene diimides, which are planar, chemically robust and redox‐active, are an attractive class of electron‐deficient dyes, which can undergo a single reversible one‐electron reduction to form stable radical anions in the presence of electron donors upon irradiation. This makes them excellent candidates for organic linkers in the construction of photochromic coordination polymers. Such a photochromic one‐dimensional linear coordination polymer has been prepared using N ,N ′‐bis(3‐carboxyphenyl)naphthalene‐1,8:4,5‐tetracarboximide (H₂BBNDI). Crystallization of H₂BBNDI with magnesium nitrate in an N ,N ′‐dimethylformamide (DMF)/ethanol/H₂O mixed‐solvent system under solvothermal conditions afforded the one‐dimensional coordination polymer catena‐poly[[bis(dimethylformamide‐κO )magnesium(II)]‐bis[μ‐N‐(3‐carboxylatophenyl)‐N ′‐(3‐carboxylphenyl)naphthalene‐1,8:4,5‐tetracarboximide‐κ²O :O ′]], [Mg(C₂₈H₁₃N₂O₈)₂(C₃H₇NO)₂]_n . The asymmetric unit contains half of a magnesium cation, one HBBNDI⁻ ligand and one DMF molecule. Two partially deprotonated HBBNDI⁻ ligands bridge two magnesium cations to form a one‐dimensional chain. Strong inter‐chain π–π interactions between the naphthalene rings of the HBBNDI⁻ ligand and the imide rings of adjacent chains provide a two‐dimensional structure. The supramolecular three‐dimensional framework is stabilized by π–π interactions between naphthalene rings of neighbouring two‐dimensional supramolecular networks. The complex exhibits a reversible photochromic behaviour, which may originate from the photoinduced electron‐transfer generation of radicals in the HBBNDI⁻ ligand.

The reaction of ambidentate sulfonium ylide (Me)₂SCHC(O)C₆H₄-p-OCH₃(Y) with HgX₂ [X = Cl (1), Br (2) and I (3)] in equimolar ratios using methanol as the solvent leads to two types of products. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals (i) a two-dimensional polymer, [{HgCl₂(Y)}₄]_n, in which the mercury(II) atom is five-coordinated and ligand Y displays C-coordination as well as an additional interaction, including O-coordination to different mercury centers and (ii) an asymmetric halide-bridged binuclear structure of the type [HgBr₂(Y)]₂, in which the mercury(II) center is four-coordinate and ligand Y displays C-coordination to the metal. The characterization of these compounds by IR, ¹H- and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy confirms the coordination of the ylide to the metal through the carbon atom. Analytical data indicate a 1:1 stoichiometry between the ylide and the Hg(II) halide in all complexes.

Crystal structure and rotational barrier of octakis(bromomethyl)naphthalene

Octakis(bromomethyl)naphthalene (4) adopts in the crystal a chiral conformation with a helical central naphthalene core and the bromomethyl groups disposed in an alternate up-down "in" arrangement. According to MM3 calculations, this conformation is less stable than the corresponding all alternated "out" form, while B3LYP/LANL2DZ calculations suggest the opposite stability order. The topomerization barrier (16.0 kcal mol(-1)) is ascribed to an enantiomerization process requiring 180 degrees rotation of all the bromomethyl groups and reversal of the helical sense of the naphthalene core.
