Adsorption of stereoregular poly(methyl methacrylates) on γ-alumina: Spectroscopic analysis

ABSTRACTS: Three poly(methyl methacrylates) (PMMA) with a racemic fraction ranging from 0.25 to 0.91 have been adsorbed from a chloroform solution on γ-alumina and studied by diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy (DRIFT) and solid-state ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. From DRIFT spectra, it is seen that the fraction of carbonyl groups bonded to the surface goes from 0.29 for s-PMMA to 0.41 for i-PMMA, but there is a larger amount of s-PMMA retained on the surface (at any given solution concentration). NMR spectroscopy indicates, from shifts of the methylene and α-methyl carbon peaks (due to the γ-gauche effect), that the adsorption is accompanied by changes in conformation, with an increase in the number of trans conformers, particularly with i-PMMA. These results indicate that s-PMMA adsorbs on γ-alumina in a brush-like configuration, with a relatively small number of groups attached to the surface, and tails and loops sticking out of the surface, whereas i-PMMA adsorbs in a sheet-like configuration, with a greater number of interacting groups. In both cases, the adsorption is accompanied with an increase in the number of trans conformers as compared to the bulk conformation. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

NMR analysis and triad sequence distributions of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are considered promising “green” alternatives to synthetic polymers because they are bio-derived, biodegradable and biocompatible. The properties of bacterial PHA copolymers depend on their microstructures, which can be modified with the use of different fermentation processes and feed materials. Thus, it is desirable to have an improved testing method for the determination of PHA microstructures. In this work, a detailed NMR analysis of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) microstructure was made. Previously only two of the hydroxyvalerate ¹³C NMR peaks have been assigned at the triad level. In this work, three of the ¹³C hydroxyvalerate peaks and two of the hydroxybutyrate peaks were found to be split into four peaks each due to comonomer sequence effects. Using eight copolymer samples with a wide compositional range, we were able to assign all these peaks to B-centered and V-centered triad sequences. Through curve deconvolution, the triad intensities were determined. These triad sequence intensities can then be analyzed via both the first-order Markovian and two-component Bernoullian models to obtain more in-depth information on copolymer composition and comonomer reactivities.     

Stereochemical analysis of N-cyclohexylidene-N-(1-phenylethyl)amine derivatives

Revisions to the microstructural assignments of poly(ethyl cyanoacrylate)

The tacticity assignments from the literature for the ¹³C-NMR signals of the side-chain methylene group of poly(ethyl cyanoacrylate) are reversed, and new assignments of the main-chain methylene group are proposed. The assignments were made possible by a combination of DEPT and HETCOR NMR experiments on samples of varying microstructure distributions. The polymer tends toward syndiotacticity, not isotacticity as previously reported. The distribution of stereoisomers fits well to a Bernoulian statistical model. The stereochemical assignments were corroborated by similar analyses of a model compound for two cyanoacrylate repeat units. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Examination of miscibility at molecular level of poly(hydroxyether of bisphenol A)/poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) blends by cross-polarization/magic angle spinning 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

The miscibility of poly(hydroxyether of bisphenol A) (phenoxy) and poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and high-resolution solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. The DSC studies showed that the phenoxy/PVP blends have a single, composition-dependent glass transition temperature (T_g). The S-shaped T_g-composition curve of the phenoxy/PVP blends was reported, which is indicative of the strong intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions. To examine the miscibility of the system at molecular level, high-resolution solid-state ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique was employed. Upon adding phenoxy to system, the chemical shift of carbonyl carbon resonance of PVP was observed to shift downfield by 1.6 ppm in the ¹³C cross-polarization (CP)/magic angle spinning (MAS) together with the high-power dipolar decoupling (DD) spectra when the concentration of phenoxy is 90 wt %. The observation was responsible for the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The proton spin-lattice relaxation time T₁(H) and the proton spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame T_1ρ(H) were measured as a function of the blend composition. The T₁(H) result was in good agreement with the thermal analysis, i.e., the blends are completely homogeneous on the scale of 20 ∼ 30 nm. The six results of T_1ρ(H) further indicated that the blends were homogeneous on the scale of 40 ∼ 50Å. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym. Phys. 36: 2291–2300, 1998     

Interdiffusion at the interface between poly(vinylpyrrolidone) and epoxy

Electron microprobe analysis (EMP) was used to study interdiffusion in bilayer films of thermoplastic poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and a thermoset epoxy. The bilayer films were prepared by casting a stoichiometric mixture of the uncured diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A epoxy (DGEBA) and 4,4′-diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS) on the PVP film and then curing the system in a two-step process under a nitrogen atmosphere. For the EMP studies, the sulfur signal was used as a probe for DDS, while the nitrogen signal served as a probe for both DDS and PVP. The addition of brominated DGEBA to the conventional DGEBA in a 1: 1 weight ratio allowed the bromine signal to be used as a probe for the epoxy phase. It was found that the interfacial thickness was much larger for the film prepared from low molecular weight PVP than that from high molecular weight PVP. Interdiffusion was suppressed when the initial cure temperature in the two-step cure cycle was 130°C compared to 170°C, in which the first stage of the cure reaction dominated the interdiffusion process. More importantly, it was demonstrated that the diffusion front of the curing agent was located closer to the thermoplastic polymer phase as compared to that of the thermoset polymer in the interface region. This tendency was more significant in the system with the larger interfacial thickness. These results have important consequences on interphase structures and properties. They suggest that crosslinking of the epoxy in the interphase may be suppressed because of an insufficient amount of curing agent and that the not-fully-reacted curing agent in the PVP phase may act to plasticize this phase. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis of poly(oxyethylene phosphoramidate)s and glycopolymers via Staudinger reaction: Multivalent binding studies with Concanavalin A

A new method for the preparation of poly(oxyethylene phosphoramidate)s and glycopolymers is developed via modification of poly(oxyethylene H‐phosphonate) which is a biodegradable, biocompatible and low toxic polymer. The phosphonate groups of the precursor are converted into tri‐coordinated phosphorus species yielding poly(oxyethylene trimethylsilyl phosphite). The latter is then reacted with different azides, including sugar azides, via Staudinger reaction to furnish the desired poly(oxyethylene phosphoramidate)s and such containing sugar moieties in the side chains attached to the P‐centers. 2002P NMR spectroscopy is applied as a powerful tool for determination of the conversion and structure of the reaction products. Studies on Concanavalin A binding to the obtained glycopolymers are performed using dynamic light scattering and analytical ultracentrifugation techniques. The viability of Human Embryonic Kidney 293 cell line is slightly affected when exposed to polyphosphoramidate glucoconjugate over a broad range of concentrations. The results obtained are encouraging for further investigations on the clustering and bio‐recognition properties of the synthesized glycopolymers. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

Segmental dynamics of poly(styrene-b-2-vinylpyridine) in bulk and at the surface/air interface

Anionically polymerized poly(α-deuterostyrene) and poly(β-deuterostyrene-b-2-vinylpyridine) (DSVP), selectively deuterated on the styrene backbone, were studied using deuterium wide-line NMR in bulk and adsorbed on silica and alumina. Changes in the segmental dynamics of the bulk and adsorbed polymers were inferred via changes in the NMR line shape with temperature. The DSVP bulk sample, which consisted of micellar aggregrates with a 2-vinylpyridine core, was more rigid than the homopolystyrene of a similar molecular weight. A significant change in mobility occurred at 20°C higher in the DSVP bulk sample than it did in homopolystyrene. The DSVP-adsorbed sample showed more restrictive mobility than bulk DSVP. The spectra of the adsorbed samples contained “rigid” Pake patterns with considerable intensity at temperatures where the collapse of the Pake pattern for the DSVP bulk sample was observed. DSVP bound to the silica surface was found to have a mobility similar to the same copolymer on alumina. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 1609–1616, 1998     

NMR analysis of the microstructure of poly(methyl acrylate-co-N-vinylcarbazole)

The microstructure of a series of high conversion copolymers of methyl acrylate (MA) and N-vinylcarbazole (NVC) was characterized by NMR. ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra were assigned by comparison to the homopolymers and by using heteronuclear shift correlation spectroscopy. MA-centered triad distributions were obtained from the carbonyl carbon. Distributions of NVC sequences were determined from aromatic carbons 1 and 8a, and aromatic proton 1 These experimentally determined sequence distributions were compared to those calculated from reactivity ratios approximated from the copolymer compositions. Agreement was very good for low NVC content copolymers. Three signals were particularly useful in providing rapid assessment of the distribution of NVC units within low NVC content copolymers: proton 1 and carbon 1 of NVC and the carbonyl carbon of MA. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Fluorescence lifetime of terbium(III) as a probe for the ion-binding properties of tactic poly(methacrylic acids)

The binding properties of trivalent metal ions to polyelectrolytes were investigated through the use of terbium [Tb(III)] in fluorescence studies. The fluorescence intensity and lifetimes of the lanthanide ions are directly dependent upon the number of water molecules bound to their inner coordination sphere. The more efficiently a ligand coordinates to a lanthanide ion, the more water molecules are expelled and consequently, the greater the fluorescence intensity and lifetime. This effect was used to probe for differences in the complexation behavior of tactic polymers. Aqueous solutions of isotactic and syndiotactic poly(methacrylic acid) (PMA) were neutralized and complexed with Tb(III) ions. The fluorescence intensity of the 286 nm hypersensitive excitation band was monitored and the lifetimes were measured using several excitation wavelengths. It was found that the isotactic PMA/Tb(III) complex exhibited a six times greater fluorescence intensity than the syndiotactic PMA complex. Lifetime measurements gave the number of water molecules coordinated by Tb(III) in the isotactic complex to be 2.4 while 3.4 waters remained bound to the Tb(III) ion in the syndiotactic PMA complex. These results indicate that isotactic PMA has the greater binding affinity towards Tb(III) ions. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis of tert-butyl-substituted poly (ether ketone) by nickel-catalyzed coupling polymerization of aromatic dichloride

tert-Butyl substituted poly (aryl ether ketone)s with relatively high molecular weights were prepared by the Ni-catalyzed polymerization of tert-butyl substituted aromatic dichlorides containing ether ketone unit. These polymers were amorphous and soluble in common organic solvents, such as THF, dichloromethane, and chloroform. De-tert-butylation of the polymer by the treatment of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid in the presence of toluene proceeded smoothly and produced crystalline poly (aryl ether ketone). © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Thermo-responsive mending of polymers crosslinked by thermally reversible covalent bond: Polymers from bisfuranic terminated poly(ethylene adipate) and tris-maleimide

Remending properties of a network polymer with reversible reactivity are described. The network structure is constructed by a Diels-Alder (DA) reaction between furyl-telechelic poly(ethylene adipate) (PEAF₂) and a tris-maleimide, M₃. When a film sample was cut into two pieces and the cut surfaces were kept in contact with each other at 60 °C, rejoining of the cut pieces was observed. This mending was induced by the reversible cross-linking reaction bridging the cut surfaces. At the cut front, the “weak” DA adducts are selectively dissociated sacrificially to release the stress so as to protect the chemical structure of the prepolymer and the linker against the scission or degradation. The dissociated furan and maleimide readily reconnect by forward DA reaction to mend the material. The remending was also observed for the samples kept at room temperature after melting at 60 °C. So, the PEAF₂ network polymer is a thermo-responsive mendable material in which crack healing is induced by a prompt thermal stimulus.     

Ferrocene clicked poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) conducting polymer: Characterization, electrochemical and electrochromic properties

The “click” chemistry, Cu(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction, was applied to covalently functionalize the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) conducting polymer film with an excellent electron transfer mediator (ferrocene). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the ferrocene-grafted PEDOT conducting polymer film, and it was proved that the grafting procedure via click reaction had a high efficiency. The ferrocene groups covalently grafted in the polymer films turned out to own a relatively fast electron transfer rate and show multi-color states via adjusting applied potential.
