Detailed studies were made of the course of the terpolymerization of ethylene, propylene, and dicyclopentadiene to form unsaturated elastomers. All the dicyclopentadiene was added at the start of a polymerization, but the monoolefins were added continuously throughout the run. Under these conditions, unsaturation of the initial polymer is fairly high but decreases steadily as the reaction progresses. From analyses of the initial samples from each run, the catalyst of VCl4 (with Al2Et3Cl3 cocatalyst), with heptane as the polymerization solvent, was most efficient for introducing unsaturation into terpolymer. This system also produces gel in the terpolymer in the latter stages of reaction, however. Catalysts of VCl4, VOCl3, or V(C5H7O2)3, with Al2Et3Cl3 cocatalyst, in benzene solvent gave terpolymers of quite similar unsaturations. With all systems, terpolymer yield increases very rapidly in the first few minutes of reaction, then very slowly for the remainder of the 30-min. reaction time, reflecting the rapid loss of activity of the vanadium catalysts. Molecular weight growth of the terpolymer prepared in heptane was extremely rapid, reaching a high value in a few minutes. When prepared in benzene, the terpolymers showed a steady increase in molecular weight throughout the reaction but reached only a moderate final value (as expressed by inherent viscosity). 相似文献
Summary: The bis(imino)pyridyl vanadium(III ) complex [VCl3{2,6‐bis[(2,6‐iPr2C6H3)NC(Me)]2(C5H3N)}] activated with different aluminium cocatalysts (AlEt2Cl, Al2Et3Cl3, MAO) promotes chemoselective 1,4‐polymerization of butadiene with activity values higher than classical vanadium‐chloride‐based catalysts. The polymer structure depends on the nature of the cocatalyst employed. The MAO‐activated complex was also found to be active in ethylene‐butadiene copolymerization, producing copolymers with up to 45 mol‐% of trans‐1,4‐butadiene. Crystalline polyethylene and trans‐1,4‐poly(butadiene) segments were detected in these copolymers by DSC and 13C NMR spectroscopy.
Polymerization of ethylene and propylene with VCl4-BuLi (Bu = n-Bu, sec-Bu, tert-Bu) catalysts was investigated. The VCl4-BuLi catalysts were found to initiate the polymerization of ethylene and propylene. The VCl4-BuLi catalysts gave an ultra high molecular polyethylene. The effect of the Li /V mole ratio on the polymerization of ethylene with the VCl4-BuLi catalysts was observed, an the catalyst gave an optimum rate at the Li/V ratio of about 3.0. The polyethylene obtained with the VCl4-BuLi catalyst was found to be a linear structure. In the polymerization of propylene with the VCl4-BuLi catalyst, the polymers contain mm contents of 56–66% were produced. 相似文献
Structural Characterization of Bis(metallated) Derivatives of 3, 3‐Dimethyl‐1, 5‐bis(trimethylsilyl)‐1, 5‐diaza‐pentane with Lithium and Aluminum and of two Donor‐substituted Digallanes The diaminopropane derivative Me2C[CH2N(H)SiMe3]2 is metallated with n‐butyllithium and lithium tetrahydridoaluminate to obtain Me2C[CH2N(Li)SiMe3]2 and Me2C[CH2N(Li)SiMe3][CH2N(AlH2)SiMe3], respectively. Both compounds exhibit a central eight‐membered ring, Li4N4 or Li2Al2N4. Me2C[CH2N(Li)SiMe3]2 reacts with Ga2Cl4 · 2dioxane under formation of the corresponding tetra(amino)digallane. This is monomeric, in contrast to a dimeric tetraalkoxy‐substituted digallane, Ga4OtBu8. All compounds were characterized by single crystal X‐ray crystallography. 相似文献
Vanadium trisacetylacetonate [V(C5H7O2)3] and vanadyl bisacetylacetonate [VO-(C5H7O2)2] were found to be satisfactory catalysts (with Al2Et3Cl3 cocatalyst) for the terpolymerization of ethylene, propylene, and dicyclopentadiene to unsaturated, sulfurcurable elastomers. Polymerization solvents of heptane or benzene were used. Best yields of terpolymers were obtained in benzene. Terpolymers with unsaturations of greater than ?0.20 mole C?C/kg. can be cured with a sulfur-based vulcanzing recipe. Both acetylacetonates produced terpolymers, in benzene, with practically equivalent properties. They also appeared to be nearly equal to corresponding terpolymers made with catalysts of VOCl3 or VCl4. 相似文献
The reaction between Cp2VCl2 (Cp = η-cyclopentadienyl) in CH2Cl2 and Et3Al2Cl3 or Et2AlCl in η-heptane yields three paramagentic species giving the ESR parameters aγ = 4.11 mT, g = 1.991 (I); aγ = 7.46 mT, g = 1.982 (II); aγ = 7.398 mT, g = 1.985 (III). Ethylene was polymerized using these catalysts; the solution was examined by the electron spin resonance technique before the polymerization and during the course of the reaction. The catalyst activity decayed quickly, and the mechanism of the reaction is discussed. 相似文献
Terpolymerizations of ethylene, propylene, and dicyclopentadiene were carried out in which the dicyclopentadiene was added to the reaction system in two equal portions at the beginning and midpoint of each run, while the monoolefins were added continuously. In the resultant elastomers, unsaturation remains much more constant throughout the course of the polymerization than for terpolymers obtained when all dicyclopentadiene is added at the start of the reaction. Yield and molecular weight of the terpolymers produced by either technique are quite comparable, however. With VCl4 catalyst (with Al2Et3Cl3 cocatalyst) in heptane solvent, the two-step addition of the diene gave terpolymers with little gel, in contrast to the high gel in terpolymers formed with the single initial addition of the diene. This system also produced terpolymer with the highest final unsaturation and molecular weight. Catalysts of VCl4, VOCl3, or V(C5H7O2)3 in benzene gave terpolymers of moderate unsaturations and molecular weights. 相似文献
The polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether by vanadium trichloride in n-heptane was studied. VCl3 ? LiCl was prepared by the reduction of VCl4 with stoichiometric amounts of BuLi. This type of catalyst induces stereospecific polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether without the action of trialkyl aluminum to an isotactic polymer when a rise in temperature during the polymerization was depressed by cooling. It is suggested that the cause of the stereospecific polymerization might be due to the catalyst structure in which LiCl coexists with VCl3, namely, VCl3 ? LiCl or VCl2 ? 2LiCl as a solid solution in the crystalline lattice, since VCl3 prepared by thermal decomposition of VCl4 and a commercial VCl3 did not produce the crystalline polymer and soluble catalysts such as VCl4 in heptane and VCl3 ? LiCl in ether solution did not yield the stereospecific polymer. It was found that some additives, such as tetrahydrofuran or ethylene glycol diphenyl ether, to the catalyst increased the stereospecific polymerization activity of the catalysts. Influence of the polymerization conditions such as temperature, time, monomer and catalyst concentrations, and the kind of solvent on the formed polymer was also examined. 相似文献
Lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, LiN(SiMe3)2, reacts with Cp*V(O)Cl2 and Cp*TaCl4 to give trimethylsilylimido complexes such as [Cp*V(NSiMe3)(μ‐NSiMe3)]2 ( 7 ) and Cp*Ta(Cl)(NSiMe3)[N(SiMe3)2] ( 19 ), respectively. Substitution of the chloro ligand in 19 by anionic groups leads to complexes with 3 different N‐containing ligands, Cp*Ta(X)(NSiMe3)[N(SiMe3)2] (X = N3 ( 20 ) or NPEt3 ( 21 )). Complex 7 is air‐ and moisture‐sensitive, and several derivatives containing oxo and trimethylsiloxy ligands have been identified. Trimethylsilyl azide, Me3Si‐N3, is able to replace the oxygen‐containing ligands for azido ligands. The two complete series of bis(azido)‐bridged complexes, [Cp*VCln(N3)2‐n(μ‐N3)]2 (n = 2, 1, 0) and [Cp*TaCln(N3)3‐n(μ‐N3)]2(n = 3, 2, 1, 0), are accessible from the reactions of Cp*VCl3 and Cp*TaCl4, respectively, with trimethylsilyl azide. A bis(nitrido)‐bridged azido‐vanadium complex, [Cp*V(N3)(μ‐N)]2 ( 18 ), has also been obtained and structurally characterized. 相似文献
A series of novel α‐diamine nickel complexes, (ArNH‐C(Me)‐(Me)C‐NHAr)NiBr2, 1 : Ar=2,6‐diisopropylphenyl, 2 : Ar=2,6‐dimethylphenyl, 3 : Ar=phenyl), have been synthesized and characterized. X‐ray crystallographic analysis showed that the coordination geometry of the α‐diamine nickel complexes is markedly different from conventional α‐diimine nickel complexes, and that the chelate ring (N‐C‐C‐N‐Ni) of the α‐diamine nickel complex is significantly distorted. The α‐diamine nickel catalysts also display different steric effects on ethylene polymerization in comparison to the α‐diimine nickel catalyst. Increasing the steric hindrance of the α‐diamine ligand by substitution of the o‐methyl groups with o‐isopropyl groups leads to decreased polymerization activity and molecular weight; however, catalyst thermal stability is significantly enhanced. Living polymerizations of ethylene can be successfully achieved using 1 /Et2AlCl at 35 °C or 2 /Et2AlCl at 0 °C. The bulky α‐diamine nickel catalyst 1 with isopropyl substituents can additionally be used to control the branching topology of the obtained polyethylene at the same level of branching density by tuning the reaction temperature and ethylene pressure. 相似文献
The polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether by the VCln–AIR3 system was carefully studied. The vanadium components were prepared by the reaction between VCl4 and AlEt3 or n-BuLi as a reducing agent. VCl3·LiCl and VCl2·2LiCl are the effective catalysts for the stereospecific polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether. When VCl3·LiCl is combined with AlR3, a new catalytic system is formed. The effect of the preparative conditions of the various vanadium component in the AlR3–VCln system shows that the effective vanadium component is trivalent. In the polymerization by VCl3·LiCl–Al (i-Bu)3 system, a change of the polymerization mechanism may occur at Al(i-Bu)3/VCl3·LiCl ratio at around 5. When the ratio is lower than 5, a cationic polymerization by VCl3·LiCl takes place predominantly, while at ratios higher than 5, it is suggested that the polymerization proceeds by means of a VCl3·LiClA–Al(i-Bu)3 complex by a coordinated anionic mechanism. The polymers obtained by these catalysts are highly crystalline. Styrene was also polymerized by using the same catalysts. VCl3·LiCl and VCl3·LiCl–THF complex yielded amorphous polymer by cationic polymerization. When VCl3·LiCl was combined with 6 mole-eq of Al(i-Bu)3, the resulting polystyrene was highly crystalline and had an isotactic structure, while the VCl2·2LiCl–Al(i-Bu)3 (1:6) system yielded traces of polymer of extremely low stereoregularity. The results indicate that the effective vanadium component at Al/V ≧ 6 is trivalent and that the mechanism is a coordinated anionic one. 相似文献
The catalytic activity of the systems based on titanium(iv) alkoxides (Ti(OPri)4, Ti(OPri)2(OCH(CF3)2)2, and Ti(OCH(CF3)2)4) and mixtures of alkylaluminum chlorides (Et2AlCl or Et3Al2Cl3) with dibutylmagnesium in ethylene polymerization and ethylene copolymerization with propylene and 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene was studied. Ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene with the molecular weight reaching 4.9 · 106 Da was found to be formed in the homopolymerization reaction, whereas copolymerization gives ter-copolymers containing propylene (up to 35 mol.%) and 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene (4.3 mol.%) units.
A soluble ethylene catalyst were obtained by mixing a methylene dichloride solution of dichlorobis(γ-cyclopentadienyl) titanium (Cp2TiCl2) with a heptane solution of ethylaluminium sesquichloride (Al2Et3Cl3) or of diethylaluminium chloride (AlEt2Cl). Ethylene was polymerized using these catalysts; the solution was examined by electron spin resonance technique before the polymerization and during the reaction. The catalyst activity remained constant for a long period, and the polymerization went on at the same rate for 6–8 hr. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed. 相似文献
Titanium(IV) coordination compounds are effectively used as precatalysts for ethylene polymerization and copolymerization with other olefins. New titanium(IV) complexes 3b – d with ligands containing two diphenylcarbinol fragments linked by the perfluorinated hydrocarbon units –CF2– or –C2F4– were synthesized. The structures of complexes 3b and 3d were determined by X-ray diffraction. Titanium atoms in 3b have a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination environment while spiro-complex 3d is characterized by tetrahedral molecular geometry. The catalytic behavior of complexes activated by mixtures of Bu2Mg and alkylaluminium chlorides from among Me2AlCl, Et2AlCl, EtAlCl2, and Et3Al2Cl3 were studied. The resulting catalytic systems catalyze ethylene polymerization to afford ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, suitable for modern processing methods, and the solvent-free solid state formation of super high-strength (1.37–2.75 GPa) and high-modulus (up to 138 GPa) oriented film tapes. The same catalytic systems catalyze ethylene copolymerization with 1-hexene to afford high molecular weight semicrystalline elastomeric polymers containing up to 20% of comonomer units. 相似文献
