Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Lanthanide Schiff Base Complex [2-OC6H4CHN（2,6-i-Pr2C6H3）]2ErCl（THF）

1 INTRODUCTION The Schiff base ligands have been used to provide a stereochemically rigid ligand framework in homogenous precatalysts of some metals, such as salen Cr catalysts in asymmetric ring-opening re- action of epoxide[1] and salen Al in ring-opening polymerization of lactide and related cyclic esters[2]. Recently, it was reported that the bidentate Schiff base complexes of early and late transition metals can be served as promising alternatives to metal- locene catalysts for th…     

–ONNO–四齿配体负载铜(Ⅱ)配合物的合成与结构研究:环二酯开环聚合的高效催化剂(英文)

The –ONNO– tetradentate Schiff base ligand N,N'-bis(2-hydroxy-3- methoxybenzaldehyde) benzene-1,2-diamine(HMBBD) has been synthesized. The ligand was attached to copper(Cu-HMBBD) in methanol under N_2 atmosphere to give a mononuclear complex. The reactivity of this complex in the ring-opening polymerization(ROP) of lactide has been studied. The complex has a square planner geometry, as determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The copper complex is highly active towards the ring-opening polymerization of lactide, and the rate of polymerization is heavily dependent on the initiator used. The copper complex allows controlled ring-opening polymerization, as shown by the linear relationship between the percentage conversion and the number average molecular weight. Based on the literature, a mechanism for the ROP of lactide has been proposed.     

Lewis acid/base modulation in β-diiminate zinc-catalyzed switchable ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide

Two β-diiminate zinc complexes were prepared and found to show high activity and well-controlled catalytic behavior in the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide. Coordination of the Lewis acid to the zinc complexes completely terminated the polymerization. The coordinated Lewis acid was easily cleaved by using a Lewis base, so that the polymerization could resume.Thus, switchable polymerization could be realized by the subsequent addition of a Lewis acid and a Lewis base. This work provides a new strategy to control the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide.     

Utilization of Azobenzene Units to Control Zinc-mediated Ring Opening Polymerization of Cyclic Esters

Salicylaldimine Zn(Ⅱ) complexes bearing azobenzene moieties were prepared to catalyze ring opening polymerization of various cyclic esters. The different reactivities of the trans and cis isomers of the zinc complexes provide a facile strategy to control polymerization processes as well as the compositions of the resultant polymers.     

聚醚桥连二异羟肟酸单核和双核过渡金属配合物催化PNPP水解

Two polyether bridged dihydroxamic acids and their mono-and binuclear manganese(Ⅱ), zinc(Ⅱ) complexes have been synthesized and employed as models to mimic hydrolase in catalytic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl picolinate (PNPP). The reaction kinetics and the mechanism of hydrolysis of PNPP have been investigated. The kinetic mathematical model for PNPP cleaved by the complexes has been proposed. The effects of the different central metal ion, mono-and binuclear metal, the pseudo-macrocyclic polyether constructed by polyethoxy group of the complexes, and reactive temperature on the rate for catalytic hydrolysis of PNPP have been examined. The results showed that the transition metal dthydroxamates exhibited high catalytic activity to the hydrolysis of PNPP, the catalytic activity of binuclear complexes was higher than that of mononuclear ones, and the pseudo-macrocyclic polyether might synergetically activate H20 coordinated to metal ion with central metal ion together and promote the catalytic hydrolysis of PNPP.

Prospects and crucial problems in oligomerization and polymerization with iron and cobalt complex catalysts

<正>The discovery of highly active 2,6-bis(imino)pyridyl iron and cobalt complexes provided a milestone of latetransition metal catalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization with being currently investigated for the scale-up process.The crucial problems are remaining in the catalytic systems:the catalytic systems targeting ethylene polymerization produce more oligomers at elevated reaction temperatures,however,there is a recognizable amount of high-molecular-weight polyethylene remained in the modified catalytic system for the oligomerization process.Beyond the modification of bis(imino)pyridyl metal complexes,several alternative procatalysts' models have been developed in our group.This review highlighted the achievements in exploring new iron and cobalt complexes with tridentate NNN ligands as procatalysts for ethylene oligomerization and polymerization.     

Theoretical Investigation of Structures,Bonding and Electronic Properties for the Complexes of 6-Mercaptopurine and Ag_8 Clusters

The Ag clusters have been investigated widely theoretically and experimentally. In particular, it has recently shown that the neutral Ag_8 clusters embedded in an argon matrix have a strong fluorescence signal. As we can know, the metal clusters may have important effects on the structures and properties of biomolecules. More and more attention is paid to the interaction between nanomaterials and biomolecules. In this work, the B3LYP method in density functional theory was used on the complexes between the 6-mercaptopurine(6MP) and Ag_8 clusters combined with 6-311++G** as well as LANL2DZ base sets. The geometries of all the complexes were optimized with full degree of freedom and the structures, chemical bonds, orbital properties as well as Mulliken charges for ten possible complexes were analyzed based on the same theory level. In addition, the influence of temperature and pressure on the stabilities of the four complexes was further explored using standard statistical thermodynamic methods ranging from 50 to 500 K and at 100 kPa or 100 bar. The results show that the complex Ag_8-6 MP-7-5 can be the most stable one among the investigated complexes, in which the Ag(11) atom interacts with the S(10) atom forming the strong chemical bond. The Mulliken charges also show that the Ag–S chemical bond is formed and the related charge has transferred. Additionally, the temperature and pressure can significantly influence the stability of the four stable complexes.

Binuclear Aluminum Complexes Supported by Linked Bis(β-diketiminate) Ligands for Ring-Opening Polymerization of Cyclic Esters

Binuclear aluminum alkyl complexes 2a–4g supported by linked bis(β-diketiminate) ligands were synthesized via the reaction of AlEt_3 or AlMe_3 and the corresponding proligand in a 2:1 molar ratio with moderate yields. The isolated complexes were well-characterized by ~1H-NMR, ~(13)C-NMR and elemental analysis. The binuclear nature of aluminum complex 2b was further confirmed by an X-ray diffraction study. All complexes 2a–4g could efficiently initiate the ring-opening polymerization(ROP) of ε-caprolactone in toluene. The substituents at the aromatic rings and the linker unit in the auxiliary ligands exerted significant influence on the catalytic behavior of the investigated aluminum complexes. Complex 4g(R~1 = R~2 = Cl) containing propylenyl bridging unit exhibited the highest catalytic activity among these complexes, which might be attributed to the increased electrophilicity of the metal center as well as more opened coordination sphere. The molecular weights of obtained poly(ε-caprolactone)s deviating considerably from the theoretical values indicated that the ROP of ε-caprolactone by complexes 2a–4g was not well-controlled, which was also judged from the broad molecular weight distributions(MWD = 1.47-2.47) of produced poly(ε-caprolactone)s. These complexes proved to be inactive toward the polymerization of rac-lactide alone. In the presence of alcohol the polymerization occurred, which was actually initiated by the decomposition species of the aluminum complex upon the treatment with isopropanol.     

STUDIES ON THE PEROXYDISULFATEALIPHATIC AMINE INITIATION SYSTEMS

The effect of some types of water-soluble aliphatic amines on the polymerization of acrylamide initiated by peroxydisulfate has been investigated in this paper. It was found that the primary and secondary aliphatic amines enhanced the rate of the polymerization effectively as well as tertiary amines and the promoting effect of these amines varied with their different structures. A new method of detecting the aliphatic amine end-group of the polymer has been developed, i.e. "CTC Spectrum Method". The kinetic equation and overall activation energies of the polymerization have been determined and the initiation mechanism of peroxydisulfate-aliphatic amine system was proposed.     

Promoting Ethylene (co)Polymerization in Aliphatic Hydrocarbon Solvents Using tert-Butyl Substituted Nickel Catalysts

In the past few decades,the development of high-performance catalysts has been a key driving force and a center of research efforts in the field of olefin polymerization.However,a major discrepa ncy exists between in dustrial researches which utilize aliphatic hydrocarb on solventsz and academic researches which predominantly focus the catalytic properties in aromatic solvents.In this con-tribution,a novel diaryl-methyl aniline bearing eight tert-butyl groups was prepared and subsequently transformed to four different kinds of imine-type ligands.The corresponding nickel complexes as well as their counterparts derived from diphenyl-methyl aniline without the tert-butyl groups were prepared and investigated in ethylene polymerization.

THE EFFECTS OF HINDERED AMINES ON METHYL METHACRYLATE POLYMERIZATION

The effects of hindered amines, such as TMP, TMPM, TUV-770, on MMA and St homopoly-merization have been studied. It was found that in the MMA polymerization initiated with BPO orAIBN, the presence of TMPM, TUV-770 prolonged the induction period and a little change on R_p wasobserved. However, in the presence of TMP R_p increased slightly. The activation energy of poly-merization and polymerization rate equation were determined.     

Copolymer of lactide and ε-caprolactone catalyzed by bimetallic Schiff base aluminum complexes

A series of copolymers of lactide(LA) and e-caprolactone(ε-CL) with different monomer feed ratios were achieved using three kinds of bimetallic Schiff aluminum complexes as catalysts. The ratios of LA and ε-CL units in different copolymers and the average segments length were determined by NMR analysis. The comparative kinetic study of L-LA/ε-CL and rac-LA/ε-CL copolymerization systems showed that the polymerization rate of LA was faster than ε-CL, and L-LA showed polymerization rate slightly faster than rac-LA. It was inferred that the copolymers achieved by these complexes were gradient copolymers with gradual change in distribution of LA and e-CL units. The thermal properties of these copolymers were characterized by DSC analysis, which showed that the glass transition temperature(Tg) of these copolymers changed regularly according to the pro-portion change of two structural units.
