Synthesis and characterization of water-swellableα,β-polyasparthydrazide derivatives

The synthesis of a new crosslinked polymer by reaction of , -polyasparthydrazide and glutaraldehyde is reported.

The crosslinked polymer was characterized by water swelling tests and thermal analysis. In particular, the crosslinking density and its effects on the glass transition temperature of the material were studied. Finally, the microstructure of the obtained polymer was observed using scanning electron microscopy.

With phosphoric formic acid (PFA) and its analog,phosphonoacetic acid (PAA),as the lead compounds,α-amino phosphonates were introduced into PFA and PAA.The derivatives oi N-( alkoxycarbonyl-aikoxyphosphonyl)-α-arnino phosphonates (Ⅰ) and N-(alkoxycarbonyl-methyt-alkoxyphosphonyl)-α-amino phosphonates (Ⅱ) with the N-terminal of amino phosphonates bonding to phosphorus atom of PFA and PAA were synthesized via the reaction of the corresponding phosphonyl chloride with a-amino phosphonates in the presence of a base.The 31P NMK spectra of Ⅰ and Ⅱwere determined.It is found that the coupling constants 3Jpp with R3 being alkyl group were lower than those with R3 being (substituted) phenyl,and this result was discussed.The preliminary bioassay showed that some of the compounds Ⅰ and Ⅱhave better activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV).The inhibitory was higher than that of DHT (2,4-dioxyhexahydro-1,3,5-triazine).In addition,some of the compounds showed the activity against cancer cells.
