Vinyl Polymerization Initiated by Metal Chelates. III. Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate Initiated by Vanadium(IV) Acetylacetonate Chelates

The polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by the vanadium acetylacetonate complex was investigated under a nitrogen atmosphere at 50°C. The effect of concentration of monomer, complex, acid, dioxane, inhibitor, and the effect of temperature on the rate of polymerization were studied. The rate of polymerization was found to increase upon increasing the concentrations of the monomer, the initiator, and the acid. The overall activation energy has been computed from the Arrhenius plot and a suitable kinetic scheme has been proposed.     

Aqueous polymerization of methyl methacrylate. III

The aqueous polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) initiated by potassium persulfate (I)-thiomalic acid (TMA) redox couple has been studied at 30 ± 0.2°C under nitrogen atmosphere. The rate of polymerization is given by up to 20.0 mmol/L TMA concentration, where x = 0.52 for the I concentration 0.6–10 mmol/L and x = 0.27 for higher I concentrations. The temperature had a marked effect on initial rate and maximum conversion. The overall energy of activation was found to be 11.79 kcal/mol (49.31 kJ/mol). Injection of more initiator (I) at intermediate stages enhanced both the initial rate and maximum conversion. Ag (I) and Fe (III) depressed initial rate as well as maximum conversion, while Cu (II) activated the polymerization. The effect of solvent was also studied.     

On surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization using diazonium chemistry to introduce the initiator layer

This work features the controllability of surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) of methyl methacrylate, initiated by a multilayered 2-bromoisobutyryl moiety formed via diazonium chemistry. The thickness as a function of polymerization time has been studied by varying different parameters such as the bromine content of the initiator layer, polarity of reaction medium, ligand type (L), and the ratio of activator (Cu(I)) to deactivator (Cu(II)) in order to ascertain the controllability of the SI-ATRP process. The variation of thickness versus surface concentration of bromine shows a gradual transition from mushroom to brush-type conformation of the surface anchored chains in both polar and nonpolar reaction medium. Interestingly, it is revealed that very thick polymer brushes, on the order of 1 μm, can be obtained at high bromine content of the initiator layer in toluene. The initial polymerization rate and the overall final thickness are higher in the case of nonpolar solvent (toluene) compared to polar medium (acetonitrile or N,N-dimethylformamide). The ligand affects the initial rate of polymerization, which correlates with the redox potentials of the pertinent Cu(II)/Cu(I) complexes (L = Me(6)TREN, PMDETA, and BIPY). It is also observed that the ability of polymer brushes to reinitiate depends on the initial thickness and the solvent used for generating it.     

Mimicking “nascent” Cu(0) mediated SET‐LRP of methyl acrylate in DMSO leads to complete conversion in several minutes

Cu(0) was prepared via disproportionation of Cu(I)Br in the presence of Me₆‐TREN in various solvents in a glove box. The resulting nanopowders were used as mimics of “nascent” Cu(0) catalyst in the single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of methyl acrylate (MA), providing faster polymerization than any commercial Cu(0) powder, Cu(0) wire, or Cu(I)Br and achieving 80% conversion in only 5 min reaction time. Despite the high rate, a living polymerization was observed with linear evolution of molecular weight, narrow polydispersity, no induction period, and high retention of chain‐end functionality. In addition to providing an unprecedentedly fast, yet controlled LRP of MA, these studies suggest that the very small “nascent” Cu(0) species formed via disproportionation in SET‐LRP are the most active catalysts. Thus, when bulk Cu(0) powder or wire may be the most abundant catalyst and dictates the overall kinetics, any Cu(0) produced via disproportionation will be rapidly consumed and contributes to the overall catalytic cycle. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of Cu(II)/H2 Salen complex on the non-conventional initiated emulsion polymerization of acrylonitrile

Radical polymerization of acrylonitrile was carried out in an emulsifier-free condition initiated by KHSO₅ catalyzed with Cu(II)/bis-salicylidene ethylene diamine (H₂ Salen) complex. The Cu(II) salt alone, Cu(II)/salicylaldehyde and Cu(II)/ethylene diamine have a retarding effect on the polymerization reaction, while the chelate of Cu(II) with the tetradentate Schiff base ligand, H₂ Salen has a catalytic effect. Prior to this, the catalytic effect of various bivalent transition metal salts and their couple with the Schiff base, H₂ Salen on the polymerization reaction has been examined to be not significant. The in situ developed complex produces the stable emulsion leading to high conversion. In the polymerization, the variables studied were the concentration of monomer, initiator, Cu(II), H₂ Salen and temperature. The overall activation energy was computed to be 13.1 kcal/mol. From the kinetic and spectral analyses, the mechanism of the initiator decomposition and initiation of polymerization by Cu(II)/H₂ Salen complex were suggested. The rate of polymerization (R_p) was found to be dependent on the monomer, initiator, Cu(II) ion, H₂ Salen concentrations to the 1.4, 0.3, 1.6, 1.5 power respectively. The polymers are characterized by IR and molecular weight by viscosity and GPC methods.     

Permanganate/glycine-initiated polymerization of acrylamide

The kinetics of aqueous polymerization of acrylamide with KMnO₄/glycine redox pair was studied in an atmosphere of nitrogen at 35 ± 0.2°C. The rate of polymerization was found to be first power on monomer, activator, and catalyst concentration. The overall energy of activation was calculated to be 15.66 kcal/deg mol (65.54 kJ/mol) between 30 and 50°C. The effects of various additives (alcohols, neutral salts, complexing agents, addition of catalyst) were studied. The dependence of the polymerization rate on the activator and catalyst concentration was studied in DMF-water mixture also. The molecular weight of polymer was determined at various temperatures of the reaction medium.     

Metal-Containing Initiator Systems. 30. Vinyl Polymerization Initiated with Bis(ethyl acetoacetato)copper(II) and Maleimide

Some electron-accepting compounds such as maleimide (MIm), maleic anhydride (MAn), and tetracyanoquinodimethane were found to show pronounced accelerating effects on vinyl polymerization initiated with metal chelates. The polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) initiated with bis(ethyl acetoacetato)-copper(II) (Cu(eacac)₂) and MIm was studied kinetically in benzene. The overall activation energy of the polymerization was calculated to be 11.5 kcal/mol. This value was much lower than that (17.6 kcal/mol) for the polymerization of MMA with Cu(eacac)₂ alone. The polymerization rate (R_p) was expressed as R_p =k[MIm]^1/2 [Cu(eacac)₂]^1/2 [MMA] The first-order dependence of R_p on the monomer concentration indicated that the monomer had no participation in the initiation step, in contrast with polymerization in the absence of MIm (where a monomer concentration dependence of 1.4th order was observed). Electronic spectroscopic study revealed that a complex between MIm and Cu(eacac)₂ had been formed. The ligand radical, an acetylcarboethoxymethyl radical, was trapped by 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane in the reactions of Cu(eacac)₂ with MIm and with MAn in benzene. From these results the mechanism of the initiation of polymerization is discussed.     

Aqueous polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by peroxydisulfate–citric acid redox system catalyzed by silver ion

The kinetics of the aqueous polymerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by potassium peroxydisulfate–citric acid catalyzed by silver ion was investigated in nitrogen atmosphere. The rate of polymerization is proportional to the square root of peroxydisulfate concentration. The initial rate increases with increasing citric acid concentration up to 15 × 10^?3M, after which it decreases. The rate of polymerization also increases initially with monomer concentration and decreases at higher monomer concentration. The effects of temperature and the addition of some solvents and salts on the rate of polymerization have also been studied and a suitable kinetic scheme has been proposed for the reaction.     

Vinyl Polymerization. 282. Vinyl Polymerization Initiated by Dimethylhydroxylamine-Titanous(lll) Chloride Redox System

Abstract

The polymerization of vinyl monomers initiated by dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (DHA)-titanous(III) chloride redox system has been studied in water under a nitrogen atmosphere. In the polymerization of methyl methyacrylate (MMA) initiated by the above system, the rate of polymerization has been found to be proportional to [DHA]^0.5 for DHA concentrations of less than 2.06 × 10^?3 mole/liter, whereas at higher concentrations the rate tends to fall rapidly. The rate has also been found to be proportional to [Ti(m)] ^0.58 and to [MMA] ^1.0. The maximum rate of polymerization has been observed at a 1:1 molar ratio of DHA to Ti(III). The polymerization proceeded via a radical mechanism. The overall activation energy was estimated as 5.5 kcal/mole. It has been suggested that the reduction of dimethylhydroxylamine by titanous(III) chloride yields the dimethylamino radical, which initiates vinyl polymerization. An examination of the initiating capacity of the initiator system for the polymerization of some vinyl monomers has also been made.
