Thermosensitive homopolymers and copolymers with hydroxy groups were synthesized via the living cationic polymerization of Si‐containing vinyl ethers. The cationic homopolymerization and copolymerization of five vinyl ethers with silyloxy groups, each with a different spacer length, were examined with a cationogen/Et1.5AlCl1.5 initiating system in the presence of an added base. When an appropriate base was added, the living cationic polymerization of Si‐containing monomers became feasible, giving polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions and various block copolymers. Subsequent desilylation gave well‐defined polyalcohols, in both water‐soluble and water‐insoluble forms. One of these polyalcohols, poly(4‐hydroxybutyl vinyl ether), underwent lower‐critical‐solution‐temperature‐type thermally induced phase separation in water at a critical temperature (TPS) of 42 °C. This phase separation was quite sensitive and reversible on heating and cooling. The phase separation also occurred sensitively with random copolymers of thermosensitive and hydrophilic or hydrophobic units, the TPS values of which in water could be controlled by the monomer feed ratio. The thermal responsiveness of this polyalcohol unit made it possible to prepare novel thermosensitive block and random copolymers consisting solely of alcohol units. One example prepared in this study was a 20 wt % aqueous solution of a diblock copolymer consisting of thermosensitive poly(4‐hydroxybutyl vinyl ether) and water‐soluble poly(2‐hydroxyethyl vinyl ether) segments, which transformed into a physical gel above 42 °C. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The judicious choice of reaction conditions permitted living cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers with bulky and strongly interacting pendant groups, such as crystalline long alkyl chains and liquid crystalline mesogenic structures, using appropriate combinations of Lewis acids with added bases. Thus, well‐defined random and block copolymers with various pendants were also synthesized. Highly sensitive UCST‐type phase separation in various organic solvents was achieved employing crystallization of octadecyl pendants of homopolymers and random copolymers. This phase separation behavior is unusual for a polymer‐organic solvent system. Furthermore, thermally induced reversible physical gelation was conducted using this thermosensitive behavior. These specific pendants were very effective not only in organic media but also in water, in obtaining hydrogels with relatively low polymer concentrations. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The living cationic polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) was investigated in the presence of various cyclic and acyclic ethers with 1-(isobutoxy)ethyl acetate [CH3CH(OiBu)OCOCH3, 1 ]/EtAlCl2 initiating system in hexane at 0°C. In particular, the effect of the basicity and steric hindrance of the ethers on the living nature and the polymerization rate was studied. The polymerization in the presence of a wide variety of cyclic ethers [tetrahydrofuran (THF), tetrahydropyran (THP), oxepane, 1,4-dioxane] and cyclic formals (1,3-dioxolane, 1,3-dioxane) gave living polymers with a very narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD) (M?ω/M?n ≤ 1.1). On the other hand, propylene oxide and oxetane additives resulted in no polymerization, whereas 1,3,5-trioxane gave the nonliving polymer with a broader MWD. The polymerization rates were dependent on the number of oxygen and ring sizes, which were related to the basicity and the steric hindrance. The order of the apparent polymerization rates in the presence of cyclic ether and formal additives was as follows: nonadditive ~ 1,3,5-trioxane ? 1,3-dioxane > 1,3-dioxolane ? 1,4-dioxane ? THP > oxepane ? THF ? oxetane, propylene oxide ? 0. The polymerization in the presence of the cyclic formals was much faster than that of the cyclic ethers: for example, the apparent propagation rate constant k in the presence of 1,3-dioxolane was 103 times larger than that in the presence of THF. Another series of experiments showed that acyclic ethers with oxyethylene units were effective as additives for the living polymerization with 1 /EtAlCl2 initiating system in hexane at 0°C. The polymers obtained in the presence of ethylene glycol diethyl ether and diethylene glycol diethyle ether had very narrow molecular weight distribution (M?ω/M?n ≤ 1.1), and the M?n was directly proportional to the monomer conversion. The polymerization behavior was quite different in the polymerization rates and the MWD of the obtained polymers from that in the presence of diethyl ether. These results suggested the polydentate-type interaction or the alternate interaction of two or three ether oxygens in oxyethylene units with the propagating carbocation, to permit the living polymerization of IBVE. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

This paper discusses recent developments in living cationic polymerization of vinyl monomers, specifically focusing on (a) new initiating systems, (b) kinetics and mechanism, and (c) controlled polymer synthesis. The new initiating systems were based on nucleophilic stabilization of the growing carbocations, either by counteranions (as in phosphate/ZnI2 and Me3SiI/ZnI2 systems) or by added Lewis bases (as 2,6-dimethylpyridine for EtAlCl2). The kinetic study included the determination of the lifetime of living cationic polymers. The controlled polymer synthesis by living cationic processes led to not only end- and pendant-functionalized polymers of narrow molecular weight distributions but also star-shaped polymers and sequence-regulated vinyl ether oligomers with functional groups. 相似文献

Our recent extensive research on Lewis acid catalysts with a weak base for the cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers led to unprecedented living reaction systems: fast living polymerization within 1–3 s; a wide choice of metal halides containing Al, Sn, Fe, Ti, Zr, Hf, Zn, Ga, In, Si, Ge, and Bi; and heterogeneously catalyzed living polymerization with Fe2O3. The use of added bases for the stabilization of the propagating carbocation and the appropriate selection of Lewis acid catalysts were crucial to the success of such new types of living polymerizations. In addition, the base‐stabilized living polymerization allowed the quantitative synthesis of star‐shaped polymers with a narrow molecular weight distribution via polymer‐linking reactions and the precision synthesis and self‐assembly of stimuli‐responsive block copolymers. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) on the cationic polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) initiated by carboxyl groups on a carbon black surface was investigated. Although the polymerization of IBVE was initiated by carboxyl groups on the surface, the rate of polymerization was small and the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of poly IBVE was very broad. The rate of the polymerization was found to be drastically increased, and 100% monomer conversion was achieved in a short time by the addition of ZnCl2. The number-average molecular weights (Mn) of the polyIBVE were directly proportional to monomer conversion in the polymerization initiated by the carbon black/ZnCl2 system. By addition of the monomer at the end of the first-stage polymerization, the added monomer was smoothly polymerized at the same rate as in the first stage. The Mn of the polymer was in excellent agreement with the calculated value, assuming the polyIBVE chain forms per unit carboxyl group on the surface and MWD was narrow (Mw/Mn = 1.2 ~ 1.3). Based on the results, it is concluded that carbon black/ZnCl2 system has an ability to initiate the living cationic polymerization of IBVE. Furthermore, it was found that polyIBVE was grafted onto the carbon black surface after the quenching of the living polymer with methanol. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Living cationic copolymerization of amide‐functional vinyl ethers with isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) was achieved using SnCl4 in the presence of ethyl acetate at 0 °C: the number–average molecular weight of the obtained polymers increased in direct proportion to the monomer conversion with relatively low polydispersity, and the amide‐functional monomer units were introduced almost quantitatively. To optimize the reaction conditions, cationic polymerization of IBVE in the presence of amide compounds, as a model reaction, was also examined using various Lewis acids in dichloromethane. The combination of SnCl4 and ethyl acetate induced living cationic polymerization of IBVE at 0 °C when an amide compound, whose nitrogen is adjacent to a phenyl group, was used. The versatile performance of SnCl4 especially for achieving living cationic polymerization of various polar functional monomers was demonstrated in this study as well as in our previous studies. Thus, the specific properties of the SnCl4 initiating system are discussed by comparing with the EtxAlCl3?x systems from viewpoints of hard and soft acids and bases principle and computational chemistry. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The living cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers has been used to prepare a number of new polymers with special properties. Sequential polymerization of the hydrophilic methyl vinyl ether (MVE) and the hydrophobic octadecyl vinyl ether (ODVE) has lead to amphiphilic block-copolymers with emulsifying properties for water/decane mixtures. Poly(vinyl-ether) macromonomers were obtained by end-capping of living polymers with hydroxyethyl acrylate. Copolymerization of polyODVE-macromonomer with usual acrylates lead to highly branched hydrophobic polymers. When the end-capping was performed with bifunctionally living polymers, the corresponding “bis-macromonomers” were obtained. Copolymerization of such bis-macromonomers with styrene or butyl acrylate, leads to the formation of segmented polymer networks. In the case of polyODVE-poly(butyl acrylate), these networks showed a pronounced phase separation. Due to the crystallinity of the polyODVE domains, these materials showed shape memory properties. 相似文献

This paper reviews the recent progress in our research on the living cationic polymerization of vinyl compounds by the hydrogen iodide/iodine (HI/I2) initiating system, with emphasis on its scope, mechanism, and applications to new polymer synthesis. The scope of the living cationic polymerization has been expanded to include vinyl ethers, propenyl ethers, unsaturated cyclic ethers, and styrene derivatives as monomers. The initiation/propagation mechanism was discussed on the basis of recent direct analysis on the living system by NMR and UV/visible spectroscopy. The proposed mechanism involves a quantitative formation of Hl-vinyl ether adduct [CH3-CH(OR)-I; l] that is by itself incapable of initiating polymerization. In the presence of iodine, however, the CH-I bond of l is electrophilically activated by iodine and living propagation occurs via the insertion of vinyl ether to the activated CH-I bond. Such living polymerizations were found to proceed in not only nonpolar but polar solvents (CH2Cl2) as well. Quenching the living end with amines gave polymers capped with an amino group that in turn enabled us to determine the living end concentration. Applications of the HI/I2-initiated living process to the synthesis of new bifunctional and block polymers were also described. 相似文献

This paper focuses on two recent topics in living cationic polymerization of vinyl monomers, i.e., (a) Development of new initiating systems: RCOOH/Lewis acid for vinyl ethers; CH3CH(C6H5)Cl/SnCl4/nBu4NCl for styrene. (b) Synthesis of shape-controlled poly(vinyl ethers): Tri-armed star polymers; Multi-armed spherical polymers. For the RCOOH-based systems, a generalized concept of living cationic polymerization was discussed on the basis of the effects of the counteranions (or R) and Lewis acids (ZnCl2 and EtAlCl2). The CH3CH(C6H5)Cl-based system permitted a truly living cationic polymerization of styrene. The tri- and multi-armed poly(vinyl ethers) included new amphiphilic polymers of unique topology, solubility, etc., all of which were prepared by living cationic polymerization. 相似文献

The synthesis of diblock copolymers with designed molecular weight distributions (MWDs) was successfully demonstrated in a continuous living cationic polymerization system using simple equipment. The control of MWDs was achieved by gradually feeding a polymerization reaction mixture into a terminating agent. As thermosensitive diblock copolymers, poly(vinyl ethers) containing a thermosensitive segment with oxyethylene side chains and a hydrophilic segment were prepared. The polymerization was carried out in a gas‐tight microsyringe, and the polymerization mixture was added continuously into methanol during the second‐stage polymerization. The self‐association behavior of the resulting diblock copolymers was evaluated by dynamic light scattering in water. MWD‐designed polymers with thermosensitive segments that varied continuously in length and hydrophilic segments of nearly uniform lengths formed micelles with a broad size distribution. Conversely, polymers with nearly uniform thermosensitive segments and hydrophilic segments of different lengths formed micelles with a narrow size distribution, as observed with conventional narrow MWD diblock copolymers. Thus, the MWD of the thermosensitive segment proved a decisive factor in achieving fine control of self‐association. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A quite small dose of a poisonous species was found to induce living cationic polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether (IBVE) in toluene at 0 °C. In the presence of a small amount of N,N‐dimethylacetamide, living cationic polymerization of IBVE was achieved using SnCl4, producing a low polydispersity polymer (weight–average molecular weight/number–average molecular weight (Mw/Mn) ≤ 1.1), whereas the polymerization was terminated at its higher concentration. In addition, amine derivatives (common terminators) as stronger bases allow living polymerization when a catalytic quantity was used. On the other hand, EtAlCl2 produced polymers with comparatively broad MWDs (Mw/Mn ~ 2), although the polymerization was slightly retarded. The systems with a strong base required much less quantity of bases than weak base systems such as ethers or esters for living polymerization. The strong base system exhibited Lewis acid preference: living polymerization proceeded only with SnCl4, TiCl4, or ZnCl2, whereas a range of Lewis acids are effective for achieving living polymerization in the conventional weak base system such as an ester and an ether. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A metal‐free, cationic, reversible addition–fragmentation chain‐transfer (RAFT) polymerization was proposed and realized. A series of thiocarbonylthio compounds were used in the presence of a small amount of triflic acid for isobutyl vinyl ether to give polymers with controlled molecular weight of up to 1×105 and narrow molecular‐weight distributions (Mw/Mn<1.1). This “living” or controlled cationic polymerization is applicable to various electron‐rich monomers including vinyl ethers, p‐methoxystyrene, and even p‐hydroxystyrene that possesses an unprotected phenol group. A transformation from cationic to radical RAFT polymerization enables the synthesis of block copolymers between cationically and radically polymerizable monomers, such as vinyl ether and vinyl acetate or methyl acrylate. 相似文献

The living cationic polymerization of octadecyl vinyl ether (ODVE) was achieved with an 1‐(isobutoxy)ethyl acetate [CH3CH(OiBu)OCOCH3]/EtAlCl2 initiating system in hexane in the presence of an added weak Lewis base at 30 °C. In contrast to conventional polymers, poly(octadecyl vinyl ether) underwent upper‐critical‐solution‐temperature‐type phase separation in various solvents, such as hexane, toluene, CH2Cl2, and tetrahydrofuran, because of the crystallization of octadecyl chains. Amphiphilic block and random copolymers with crystallizable substituents of ODVE and 2‐methoxyethyl vinyl ether (MOVE) were synthesized via living cationic polymerization under similar conditions. Aqueous solutions of the copolymers yielded physical gels upon cooling because of strong interactions between ODVE units, regardless of the copolymer structure. The product gels, however, exhibited different viscoelastic properties: A 20 wt % solution of a block copolymer (400/20 MOVE/ODVE) became a soft physical gel that behaved like a typical gel, whereas the corresponding random copolymer gave a transparent but stiff gel with a certain relaxation time. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis confirmed that the crystalline–amorphous transition of the octadecyl chains was a key step for inducing such physical gelation. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

pH‐Responsive homopolymers and copolymers with naphthoic acid side groups were synthesized via base‐assisting living cationic polymerization. To this end, the feasibility of the living cationic polymerization of ethyl 6‐[2‐(vinyloxy)ethoxy]‐2‐naphthoate (EVEN) was first examined using a base‐assisting initiating system. Et1.5AlCl1.5 as a Lewis acid catalyst induced the living cationic polymerization of EVEN in the presence of ethyl acetate or 1,4‐dioxane in CH2Cl2 at 0 °C. In contrast, the use of naphthoxyethyl vinyl ether (NpOVE), which is a nonsubstituted counterpart, resulted in a poorly controlled polymerization under these conditions. The presence of the carboxy ester was most likely critical in preventing side reactions. A subsequent alkaline hydrolysis of the side‐chain esters quantitatively yielded a carboxy‐containing polymer. Aqueous solutions of this polymer underwent pH‐driven phase separation at pH 7.0. Well‐defined random and block copolymers were also prepared with various functional segments, and their stimuli‐responsive behaviors were investigated in terms of solution transmittance and aggregate size. Block copolymers containing two different pH‐responsive segments formed micelle‐like structures between the two phase‐separated pH values, and dual stimuli‐responsive copolymers containing a pH‐responsive polyacid segment and a thermosensitive segment self‐assembled in the water in response to both the pH and temperature. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A stereochemical scheme of propagation was proposed for polymerizations of vinyl and related monomers by Friedel-Crafts catalysts. For the cationic propagation proceeding via the simple carbonium ion pair, the following two factors were considered to be of primary importance in determining the steric course of propagation: (1) the conformation of the last two units of the propagating polymer segment and the direction of approach of the incoming monomer; (2) the tightness of the growing ion pair. Thus, the front-side (less hindered site) attack to the carbonium ion gives rise to a syndiotactic placement and the back-side attack an isotactic placement. The present model can satisfactorily explain the effects of substituents, catalysts, polymerization media, and polymerization temperature on the steric structure of polymers in cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers. Extension of the scheme to polymerization of the β-substituted vinyl ethers in nonpolar solvents predicts formation of the diisotactic structures consistent with the experimental result. The influences of the polymerization condition on the steric structure of polymer were studied for cationic polymerizations of α-methylstyrene at low temperatures. Highly syndiotactic polymers were obtained for homogeneous reactions in toluene-rich media. The isotactic unit increased by increasing the content of methylcyclohexane in the solvent mixture. The effect of catalysts, though insignificant in toluene-rich media, was clearly noted in methylcyclohexane-rich media, less active catalysts (e.g., SnCl4) yielding higher amounts of the isotactic unit than more active catalysts (e.g., AlCl3). These results can be readily accommodated in the present model. 相似文献

Living cationic polymerization of fluorine‐containing vinyl ethers [CH2?CH? O? C2H4? O? C3H6? CnF2n+1: 5FVE (n = 2), 13FVE (n = 6)] was investigated in various solvents with a CH3CH(OiBu)OCOCH3/Et1.5AlCl1.5 initiating system in the presence of an added base. 5FVE was polymerized quantitatively in toluene at 0 °C, and the obtained polymers had predetermined molecular weights with narrow molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mn < 1.1). On the other hand, for the polymerization of 13FVE, the product polymers precipitated due to their extremely poor solubility in nonfluorinated organic solvents. Therefore, fluorinated solvents such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons, hydrofluorocarbons, hydrofluoroethers, or α,α,α‐trifluorotoluene, as‐yet uninvestigated for cationic polymerization, were employed. In these solvents, living polymerization was achieved even with 13FVE, yielding well‐defined polymers (Mw/Mn < 1.1, by size exclusion chromatography using a fluorinated solvent as an eluent). The solvents were also shown to be good for living polymerization of isobutyl vinyl ether. The obtained fluorine‐containing polymers underwent temperature‐responsive solubility transitions in organic solvents. Poly(5FVE) showed sensitive upper critical solution temperature (UCST)‐type phase separation behavior in toluene. Copolymers of 13FVE and isobutyl vinyl ether showed UCST‐type phase separation in common organic solvents with different polarities depending on their composition, while a homopolymer of 13FVE was insoluble in all nonfluorinated organic solvents. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Applications of metal‐free living cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers using HCl · Et2O are reported. Product of poly(vinyl ether)s possessing functional end groups such as hydroxyethyl groups with predicted molecular weights was used as a macroinitiator in activated monomer cationic polymerization of ε‐caprolactone (CL) with HCl · Et2O as a ring‐opening polymerization. This combination method is a metal‐free polymerization using HCl · Et2O. The formation of poly(isobutyl vinyl ether)‐b‐poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PIBVE‐b‐PCL) and poly(tert‐butyl vinyl ether)‐b‐poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PTBVE‐b‐PCL) from two vinyl ethers and CL was successful. Therefore, we synthesized novel amphiphilic, biocompatible, and biodegradable block copolymers comprised polyvinyl alcohol and PCL, namely PVA‐b‐PCL by transformation of acid hydrolysis of tert‐butoxy moiety of PTBVE in PTBVE‐b‐PCL. The synthesized copolymers showed well‐defined structure and narrow molecular weight distribution. The structure of resulting block copolymers was confirmed by 1H NMR, size exclusion chromatography, and differential scanning calorimetry. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The living cationic polymerization of vinyl ethers (VEs) having a (polar) functional pendant has been achieved by the hydrogen iodide/iodine (HI/I2) initiating system to give polymers with a very narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD) (Mw/Mn ≤ 1.2). The functional pendants include benzyl, saturated or unsaturated ester, (poly) oxyethylene, and substituted phenoxyl groups. Although these polar groups often disturb cationic vinyl polymerization by inducing chain transfer and termination, the HI/I2 initiator cleanly polymerized the “functionalized” VEs without side reactions, mostly in nonpolar media at low temperatures below −15 °C. The HI/I2-initiated living polymerization also provided facile methods to synthesize new functional polymers, including water-soluble polymers, macromolecular amphiphiles, and macromers, all having a narrow MWD. The simplest example is the living polymerization of VEs carrying an oxyethylene chain [-(CH2CH2O)n-R] as pendant, which directly yields water-soluble polymers. The debenzylation of poly(benzyl VE) prepared with HI/I2 led to poly(vinyl alcohol). Polymers of the saturated ester-containing monomers (2-acetoxyethyl and 2-benzoyloxyethyl VEs) were readily hydrolyzed into poly (2-hydroxyethyl VE), soluble in water and swellable in methanol. This lead was extended to the synthesis of a new amphiphile, poly(cetyl VE-b-2-hydroxyethyl VE), from a block copolymer of cetyl and 2-acetoxyethyl VEs prepared by their sequential living polymerization initiated with HI/I2. An adduct between HI and 2-vinyloxyethyl methacrylate [CH3-CH(I)-OCH2CH2OCOC(CH3) =CH2] was found to initiate living polymerizations of VEs in the presence of iodine; the products were methacrylate-type macromers carrying a poly(VE) side chain with a narrow chain-length distribution. 相似文献

Random and alternating copolymerizations of acrylates, methacrylates, acrylonitorile, and acrylamides with vinyl ethers under organotellurium‐, organostibine‐, and organobismuthine‐mediated living radical polymerization (TERP, SBRP, and BIRP, respectively) have been studied. Structurally well‐controlled random and alternating copolymers with controlled molecular weights and polydispersities were synthesized. The highly alternating copolymerization occurred in a combination of acrylates and vinyl ethers and acrylonitorile and vinyl ethers by using excess amount of vinyl ethers over acrylates and acrylonitorile. On the contrary, alternating copolymerization did not occur in a combination of acrylamides and vinyl ethers even excess amount of vinyl ethers were used. The reactivity of polymer‐end radicals to a vinyl ether was estimated by the theoretical calculations, and it was suggested that the energy level of singly occupied molecular orbital (SOMO) of polymer‐end radical species determined the reactivity. By combining living random and alternating copolymerization with living radical or living cationic polymerization, new block copolymers, such as (PBA‐alt‐PIBVE)‐block‐(PtBA‐co‐PIBVE), PBA‐block‐(PBA‐alt‐PIBVE), and (PTFEA‐alt‐PIBVE)‐block‐PIBVE, with controlled macromolecular structures were successfully synthesized. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
