Synthesis of new,functionalized poly(butyl vinyl ether) oligomers and novel copolymers containing these materials

This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of new, functionalized poly(alkyl vinyl ether) oligomers, and block copolymers containing poly(alkyl vinyl ether) and poly(methyl methacrylate). Using the HI/ZnI₂ initiating system in nonpolar solvents (hexane, toluene) at −20°C, both monofunctional and difunctional poly(alkyl vinyl ether) oligomers of predicted molecular weights precisely terminated with aldehyde, primary hydroxyl and ester endgroups have been prepared. Novel diblock copolymers comprised of poly(methyl methacrylate) and poly(butyl vinyl ether) have also been synthesized using a combination of living cationic and living group transfer polymerization.

Novel vinyl ether functionalized fluorene polymers for active incorporation into common photoresist matrices

A novel vinyl ether functionalized fluorene monomer was prepared to produce a series of fluorene-based polymers with different emitter units to cover emission in the visible spectrum whilst retaining the same main absorption profile. The vinyl ether functionality allows for active incorporation of the light emitting polymers into standard vinyl ether and glycidyl ether photoresist materials. This enables photopatterning of light emitting structures for application in UV down-conversion, waveguiding and for lasing media.     

Some new developments in vinyl ether polymerization

Different combinations of acetals with trimethylsilyl iodide have been explored as new initiating systems for the vinyl ether polymerization. The resulting polymers are characterized by controlled molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions, confirming the living polymerization mechanism. Acetals can also be used as transfer agents in the polymerization of vinyl ethers. When using 1,1-diethoxyethane (DEE) as transfer agent and isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) as monomer, a transfer constant of 0.2 was obtained (at −40°C in toluene). This method, transposed to functional acetals, provides a new way to prepare polyvinyl ethers with one or two functional end groups. The cationic polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether initiated with the combination triflic acid/thietane, where thietane acts as electron donating moderator, leads to star-shaped polyvinylether-polythietane block-copolymers (at −40°C in dichloromethane). The block-copolymer structure is obtained because the vinyl ether polymerization is stopped when the α-alkoxy thietanium ion (active species) is attacked by a thietane molecule, which is at the same time an initiation reaction for the thietane polymerization. The star-shaped structure of the block-polymer is the result of the intermolecular termination in the cationic polymerization of thietane. When using a bifunctional initiator system, a polymer network is obtained consisting of linear polyIBVE-segments interconnected by branched polythietane segments. These findings support the sulfonium ion structure of the active species in the cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers initiated by the acid-sulfide system.

Emulsion polymerization of ethylene from mesoporous silica nanoparticles with vinyl functionalized monolayers

Emulsion polymerization of ethylene from vinyl functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (V‐MSNs) was reported. V‐MSNs were synthesized via deposition of vinyl monolayers on the pore walls, and the relative surface coverage of the vinyl monolayers was 74%. A fluorinated P‐O‐chelated nickel catalyst coordinated to the vinyl groups. These V‐MSNs hosting catalysts were full dispersed in water assisted by ultrasonic processor in the presence of surfactants. After addition of ethylene, polyethylene (PE) chains grew from the pores of V‐MSNs, formation of stable nanocomposite latices with solid content up to 17.3%. Our method made V‐MSNs well‐dispersed in the PE matrix. Especially, because of a strong interaction between PE and nanoparticles, a stable V‐MSNs core/PE shell structure was formed upon thermal treatment above melting temperature of the PE. Samples were analyzed by a number of techniques including TEM, N₂ adsorption‐desorption, FTIR, and solid state ²⁹Si NMR, DLS, ¹H NMR, GPC, and DSC. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis of gold functionalized poly-bisvinylethyleneurea/silica hybrid materials

Novel gold/poly-(1,3-divinyl-imidazolid-2-one)/silica [poly-bisvinylethyleneurea (poly-BVU)/silica)] hybrid particles have been produced by adsorption and spontaneously occurring in situ reduction of Au(3+) cations on the surface of poly-BVU/silica hybrid particles. The successful functionalization of the poly-BVU/silica particles with gold nanoclusters has been evidenced by UV/vis and XPS spectroscopy as well as scanning electron microscopy. The size of the resulting gold clusters, estimated by means of the Mie-Drude theory on the full peak width at half-maximum of the surface plasmon UV/vis absorbance, correlates with the polymer content of the poly-BVU/silica hybrid particles used for the modification. Therefore, it is possible to control the size of the gold clusters simply by adjusting the monomer/silica ratio in the polymerization process, which corresponds with the polymer content of the hybrids.     

From linear side-chain functionalized poly(vinyl ether)s to functional macrocycles

This paper deals with the synthesis of functional polymers of controlled chain dimensions and architecture from poly(chloroalky1 vinyl ether)s. The living polymerization of chloroalkyl vinyl ethers initiated by HX/ZnX₂ systems, and the chemical substitution of the pendant chlorines by various organic functions and groups, in order to generate specific polymer properties are first discussed. Also based on the living character of the polymerizations, the preparation of poly(chloroethyl vinyl ether) with monomacrocyclic and plurimacrocyclic architectures as well as their characterization are then reported. Some evidence for specific host–guest interactions between large organic molecules and polymacrocycles is also presented.

Synthesis of new polysilane-crown ether

This paper presents the synthesis of new polysilane with pendant crown ether groups. The polymer was obtained through the addition reaction of 4^′-allylbenzo-15-crown-5 to poly[methyl(H)-co-methylphenylsilane] copolymer in anhydrous toluene solution using hexachloroplatinic acid as a catalyst. The allyl functionalization of the crown ether was achieved by the coupling of the crown ether bromide with allyl magnesium chloride. The availability of the crown ether sites in complexation reactions with Cu(II) cations was tested.The chemical structures of all products and intermediates were studied using spectral methods (IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, UV), gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).

Synthesis of glucosamine vinyl ether derivative and its deuterated analog

The use of calcium carbide (in the presence of H₂O) as a source of acetylene in the reaction with methyl 2-amino-4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-β-d-glucopyranoside under superbasic conditions (KF, KOH, DMSO, 130 °C, 3 h) led to the corresponding vinyl ether in 78% yield. The vinylation does not affect other reaction centers. Replacement of water with deuterium oxide in the reaction mixture gave a stable deuterated analog of this vinyl ether in 72% yield. The one-step isotopic enrichment was practically quantitative (isotopic purity >96%). Introduced deuterium atoms can be used as a convenient label in further transformations.

     

Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic diblock copolymers of methyl tri(ethylene glycol) vinyl ether and isobutyl vinyl ether

Water-soluble diblock copolymers of methyl tri(ethylene glycol) vinyl ether (hydrophilic block) and isobutyl vinyl ether (hydrophobic block) of different molecular weights and composition were synthesized by living cationic polymerization. The molecular weight and comonomer composition of these copolymers were determined by GPC and ¹H NMR spectroscopy, respectively. Aqueous solutions of the copolymers were characterized in terms of their micellar behavior using dynamic light scattering, aqueous GPC, and dye solubilization. All the copolymers formed aggregates with the exception of a diblock copolymer with only two hydrophobic monomer units. The micellar hydrodynamic size scaled with the 0.61 power of the number of hydrophobic units, in good agreement with a theoretical exponent of 0.73. An increase in the length of the hydrophobic block at constant hydrophilic block length or an increase in the overall polymer size at constant block length ratio both resulted in lower critical micelle concentrations (cmcs). The cloud points of 1% w/w aqueous solutions of the polymers were determined by turbidimetry. An increase in the length of the hydrophobic block at constant hydrophilic block length caused a decrease in the cloud points of the copolymers. However, an increase in the overall polymer size at constant block length ratio led to an increase in the cloud point. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Functionalized vinyl pinacol boronates suitable for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions are synthesized using ruthenium-catalyzed olefin cross-metathesis of 1-propenyl pinacol boronate and various alkenes, including functionalized and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. The resultant boronate cross products are stereoselectively transformed into predominantly Z-vinyl bromides and E-vinyl iodides. The vinyl bromides may be synthesized in a two-step, one-pot synthesis from a variety of olefins, resulting in a Z-selective formal vinyl bromide cross-metathesis reaction.     

Synthesis and properties of crown ether functionalized coumarin substituted zinc phthalocyanine

The novel 6,7-[15-crown-5]-3-[p-(2,3-dicyanophenoxy)phenyl]coumarin (1) and its non-peripherally substituted zinc phthalocyanine complex (2) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR (for compound 1), MALDI-TOF, FT-IR and UV-Vis spectral data. Fluorescence intensity changes of compound 1 have been determined by addition of Na⁺ or K⁺ ions at 25 °C in THF. The effects of the chromenone crown ether substituent of the phthalocyanine molecule on the photophysical (fluorescence quantum yield and lifetime) and photochemical (singlet oxygen generation and photodegradation) properties were also investigated. The fluorescence of the zinc phthalocyanine complex is effectively quenched by addition of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ).
