NEW INITIATION SYSTEMS FOR ATOM TRANSFER RADICAL POLYMERIZATION

This review summarizes our achievements in designing new initiation systems for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). First-order kinetics and extension experiments revealed the living nature of these reactions. Tailormade vinyl polymers with functional end groups were characterized by ^1H-NMR and UV-vis spectroscopic analyses. Replacing traditional radical initiators AIBN and BPO, carbon-carbon bond compounds, 1,1,2,2-tetraphenyl-l,2-ethanediol, diethyl 2,3-dicyano-2,3-diphenylsuccinate and diethyl 2,3-dicyano-2,3-di(p-tolyl)succinate, were utilized in reverse ATRP to produce the initiating radical. Sulfur-sulfur bond iniferter, tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TD), in conjunction with CuBr/bpy or NiCI2/PPh3 complex could control the styrene polymerization via redox reaction. Pseudo-halogen transfer reaction was demonstrated to maintain the dormant-active species equilibrium in normal and reverse ATRP with Cu(S2CNEt2), Cu(S2CNEt2)CI and Fe(S2CNEt2)3 as catalysts. The organic halide initiator and reduced transition metal compound that started the living polymerization were produced in situ from the components of TD/FeCI3/PPh3, TD/CuBr2/bpy and Fe(S2CNEt2)3/FeCI3/PPh3 systems. Accurate control of UV irradiation time favored the radical generation process in photo ATRP with the 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone/Fe(S2CNEt2)3 initiation system.     

Cu(S2CNEt2)Cl‐Catalyzed Reverse Atom‐Transfer Radical Polymerization of Vinyl Monomers

A new copper catalyst containing chlorine and a photo‐labile diethylthiocarbamoylthiyl group was successfully employed in the reverse ATRP of methyl methacrylate (MMA). The polymeric chains were end‐capped with S₂CNEt₂, due to pseudo‐halogen atom‐transfer reaction between active and dormant species. Photopolymerization of this PMMA in the presence of fresh MMA and styrene monomers at ambient temperature yielded chain‐extended PMMA and MMA/styrene block copolymers, respectively.

Volatile ZnPhen(S2CNEt2)2 and MnPhen(S2CNEt2)2 complexes and the MnZn2Phen3(S2CNEt2)6 phase: Thermal behavior and crystal and molecular structures of two modifications of ZnPhen(S2CNEt2)2

Two crystal modifications, I and II, of the ZnPhen(S₂CNEt₂)₂ complex have been isolated. According to XRD data, the single crystals of I are triclinic with a=9.745(2), b=10.252(2), c=14.331(3) Å, α=99.18(2), β=91.01(2), γ=113.28(2)°, V=1293.2(4) ų, space group P1, Z=2, d_calc=1.401 g/cm³. The crystals of II are monoclinic with a=7.220(6), b=18.095(2), c=19.050(4) Å, β=95.85(2)°, V=2475.8(7) ų, space group C2/c, Z=4, d_calc=1.461 g/cm³. In both modifications, the structure is formed by monomer molecules with a distorted octahedral environment of the zinc atom. All atoms in I are in the general position; in II, the atoms are linked by the twofold rotation axis. It is shown by X-ray phase analysis (XRPA) that the MnPhen(S₂CNEt₂)₂ complexes (III) are isostructural to modification I of the ZnPhen(S₂CNEt₂)₂ complex, which underlies the synthesis of a solid solution of these complexes, MnZn₂Phen₃(S₂CNEt₂)₆ (phase IV). It is found that MPhen(S₂CNEt₂)₂ (M=Zn²⁺, Mn²⁺) and phase IV quantitatively sublime when heated in vacuum. Thermolysis of III in argon yields manganese(II) sulfide of cubic modification; the main product of thermolysis of phase IV is a solid solution of Zn_xMn_1?xS of hexagonal modification.     

Polymer Brushes via Controlled,Surface‐Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (ATRP) from Graphene Oxide

A method for growing polymers directly from the surface of graphene oxide is demonstrated. The technique involves the covalent attachment of an initiator followed by the polymerization of styrene, methyl methacrylate, or butyl acrylate using atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). The resulting materials were characterized using a range of techniques and were found to significantly improve the solubility properties of graphene oxide. The surface‐grown polymers were saponified from the surface and also characterized. Based on these results, the ATRP reactions were determined to proceed in a controlled manner and were found to leave the structure of the graphene oxide largely intact.

     

Synthesis of AB diblock copolymers by atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and living polymerization of alpha-amino acid-N-carboxyanhydrides

The synthesis of poly(methyl acrylate)-block-poly(gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PMA-b-PBLG) diblock copolymers, using atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl acrylate and living polymerization of gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydride (Glu-NCA) is described. Amido-amidate nickelacycle end groups were incorporated onto amino-terminated poly(methyl acrylates), and the resulting complexes were successfully used as macroinitiators for the growth of polypeptide segments. This method allows the controlled preparation of polypeptide-block-poly(methyl acrylate) diblock architectures with control over polypeptide chain length and without the formation of homopolypeptide contaminants.

Diselenocarbamates,novel initiators in ATRP of styrene

The atom transfer radical polymerizations (ATRPs) of styrene initiated by diselenocarbamates were carried out for the first time. The polymerization showed first‐order kinetic with respect to the monomer concentration, and the molecular weights of the obtained polymers increased linearly with the monomer conversions with narrow molecular weight distributions (as low as 1.16). The results of chain extension, ¹H NMR, UV–vis, and MALDI‐TOF MS confirmed that the resultant polystyrene possessed some degree of living diselenocarbamates terminal. However, significant amounts of dead polymers (about 53%) were also found. This work offered an alternative type of ATRP initiator, and the seleno‐terminated polymers may be useful in biotechnological and biomedical applications. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym.

ATRP of styrene catalyzed by elemental Fe(0) and Br2: An easy and economical ATRP process

In this work, zero‐valent iron (Fe(0)) (powder or wire) and elemental bromine (Br₂) were used as the catalysts for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene (St) without any additional initiator at 110 °C. The polymerizations happened with controlled evidence at appropriate molar ratio of Fe(0) to Br₂: a remarkable increase of molecular weights with St conversions, the narrow molecular weight distributions and living polymer chains end‐capped by Br. More Br₂ or less Fe(0) led to a slow polymerization rate but an improved control over molecular weights. After examining the polymer chain ends by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry, it was concluded that the polymerization was initiated by thermal self‐initiation, and regulated by the in situ generated Fe^IIIBr₃. The results suggested that the Fe(0)/Br₂ catalyzing polymerization was a classical ATRP process with easier operation and more economical components. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
