One-pot RAFT/"click" chemistry via isocyanates: efficient synthesis of α-end-functionalized polymers

A new methodology has been developed for preparing α-functional polymers in a one-pot simultaneous polymerization/isocyanate "click" reaction. Our original synthetic strategy is based on the preparation of a carbonyl-azide chain transfer agent (CTA) precursor that undergoes the Curtius rearrangement in situ during reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization yielding well-controlled α-isocyanate modified polymers. This strategy overcomes numerous difficulties associated with the synthesis of a polymerization mediator bearing an isocyanate at the R group and with the handling of such a reactive functionality. This new carbonyl-azide CTA can control the polymerization of a wide range of monomers, including (meth)acrylates, acrylamides, and styrenes (M(n) = 2-30 kDa; ? = 1.16-1.38). We also show that this carbonyl-azide CTA can be used as a universal platform for the synthesis of α-end-functionalized polymers in a one-pot RAFT polymerization/isocyanate "click" procedure.     

RAFT-mediated emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate: a challenge towards producing high molecular weight poly(vinyl acetate)

The preparation of poly(vinyl acetate) with well-controlled structure has received a great deal of interest in recent years because of a large number of developments in living radical polymerization techniques. Among these techniques, the use of reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT)-mediated polymerization has been employed for the controlled polymerization of vinyl acetate due to the high susceptibility of this monomer towards chain transfer reactions. Here, a novel water-soluble N,N-dialkyl dithiocarbamate RAFT agent has been prepared and employed in the emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate. The kinetic results reveal that the polymerization nucleation mechanism changes from homogeneous to micellar and RAFT-generated radicals can change the kinetic behavior from conventional emulsion polymerization to living radical polymerization. At higher concentrations of the modified RAFT agent, as a result of an aqueous phase reaction between RAFT and sulfate radicals, relatively more hydrophobic radicals are generated, which favors entry and propagation into micelles swollen with monomer. This observation was determined from the investigation of the polymerization rate and measurements of the average particle diameter and the number of particles per liter of the aqueous phase. Molecular weight analysis also demonstrated the participation of the RAFT agent in the polymerization in such a way as to restrict chain transfer reactions. This was determined by examining the evolution of polymer chain length and attaining higher molecular weights, even up to 50?% greater than the samples obtained from the conventional emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate in the absence of the synthesized modified RAFT agent.

Finally, a specific example of a novel material design is briefly introduced, whereas polymers prepared via RAFT are adopted for microporous/honeycomb membrane design. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Molecular Recognition Ability of Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Nano- and Micro-Particles by Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer Polymerization

The role of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) is changing from academic to applied researches. Challenging problems about MIP will be more highlighted in applicable uses and solving these problems is vital. The controlled/“living” radical polymerization (CLRP) techniques are applicable to solve the challenging problems in MIPs. The “living” nature of CLRP helps to improve the heterogeneity of binding sites in MIPs as a main challenge where precise control over sizes, compositions, and surface functionalities is achieved. Among different techniques of CLRP, reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) technique presents distinguished benefits such as compatibility and tolerance to a wide range of functional monomers and mild reaction conditions rather than other CLRP techniques. In this review, in order to obtain more insights into the potential benefits of RAFT polymerization in fabrication of nano and micro MIP networks, recent research in advanced MIP materials for different templates with improved morphology, efficiency, and binding capacities with respect to traditional free radical polymerization (FRP) will be discussed. MIPs prepared via RAFT method have advantages of MIPs as high performance molecular recognition devices and CLRP as controllable polymerization mechanism, simultaneously.     

RAFT Polymerization in Bulk and Emulsion

Detailed models of the RAFT polymerization in both non-segregated (bulk) and segregated (seeded emulsion) systems are presented. It is shown that satisfactory agreements between experiments and models can be achieved, and that effects such as inhibition and retardation, or the polymerization behavior at high conversions can be readily explained. In all cases the model parameter fitting has been minimized, being mostly limited to the rate coefficients of the addition/fragmentation reactions in the RAFT polymerization. Therefore, such models are believed to be invaluable tools towards a deeper understanding of the main phenomena underlying RAFT polymerization.
