Metathesis polymerization of norbornene and terminal acetylenes catalyzed by bis(acetonitrile) complexes of molybdenum and tungsten

The ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of norbornene catalyzed by bis(acetonitrile) molybdenum and tungsten complexes, [M(η³-C₃H₅)Cl(CO)₂(NCMe)₂] (1-Mo: M = Mo, 1-W: M = W), which have two labile acetonitrile ligands, has been investigated. These complexes catalyzed the ROMP of norbornene as a single-component initiator. The highly cis-selective polymerization proceeded in a THF solution (95% for 1-Mo and 96% for 1-W), whereas polymerization in CH₂Cl₂ or toluene resulted in lower cis selectivity. The polymerization of terminal acetylenes using these complexes was also examined. The tungsten complex 1-W showed a high catalytic activity for the polymerization of terminal acetylenes, such as phenyl- and tert-butylacetylene. A highly active catalytic system for the ROMP of norbornene was achieved by the activation of the tungsten complex, 1-W, with one equivalent of phenylacetylene, giving poly(norbornene) with a high molecular weight (M_n = 391 × 10⁴) and a high cis selectivity (cis  89%).     

Polyfunctional Conjugated Microporous Polymers for Applications in Direct C-H Arylation of Unactivated Arenes and Aqueous Adsorption of Aromatic Amines

Salen-porphyrin-based conjugated microporous polymers(CMPs) have been demonstrated to be an attractive material platform for predesigned structures and promising applications. Herein, a new salen-porphyrin-based conjugated microporous polymer(SP-CMP-L) was solvothermally prepared by porphyrin-forming condensation reaction of pyrrole and salen-dialdehyde derivative. The SP-CMP-L was characterized by spectroscopy technologies, and also exhibited excellent thermal and chemical stability. The porosity of SP-CMP-L was examined by N₂ adsorption/desorption isotherms. The BET specific surface area of the CMP material was calculated to be 290.4 m²/g with the pore volume of 0.19 cm³/g. The microstructure property of the resulting material was further evaculated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The SP-CMP-L with salen and porphyrin multidentate coordination sites was proposed to serve as an initiator to promote the cross-coupling between aryl halides with unactivated arenes under base-mediated conditions. The transition-metal-free catalytic protocol provided high catalytic activity for direct C-H arylation reaction of unactivated arenes, and thus offered a convenient and efficient alternative for the construction biaryl scaffolds. In addition, the salen-porphyrin-based CMP material possessed remarkable adsorption capability for the removal of organic amines from water.

Preparation of palladium complexes of 1,3-di(2-pyridyl)propane derivatives and their use in norbornene polymerization

A variety of neutral palladium(II) complexes [Pd(L–L)Cl₂] containing 1,3-di(2-pyridyl)propane (1), 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl)-2-pentylpropane (2), 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl)-2-phenylpropane (3a), 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl)-2-tolylpropane (4), and 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl)-2-ferrocenylpropane (5) as chelate ligands (L–L) have been synthesized. The crystal structures of 1,3-diphenyl-2,4-di-pyridin-2-yl-butan-1-ol (3b), 5, [(2)PdCl₂], [(4)PdCl₂], and [(5)PdCl₂] have been determined and show a square planar geometry at palladium(II). The neutral complexes were tested in the polymerization of norbornene and copolymerization of norbornene with norbornene derivatives. The complex bearing the pentyl group exhibited high reactivity to give up to 5.9×10⁵ in molecular weight for the homopolymerization. When [(4)PdCl₂] or [(5)PdCl₂] was used as a catalyst, homopolymers insoluble at 150 °C in trichlorobenzene were obtained. However, copolymerization of norbornene with norbornene derivatives 8a–d catalyzed by [(4)PdCl₂] gave soluble copolymers with molecular weights up to 5.1×10⁵.     

Vinyl-polymerization of norbornene with novel anilido–imino nickel complexes/methylaluminoxane: Abnormal influence of polymerization temperature on molecular weight of polynorbornenes

Herein reported are investigations of norbornene polymerization by novel anilido–imino nickel complexes [(Ar¹NCHC₆H₄NAr²)NiBr]₂ (Ar¹ = Ar² = 2,6-dimethylphenyl, 1; Ar¹ = 2,6-dimethylphenyl, Ar² = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, 2; Ar¹ = Ar² = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, 3; Ar¹ = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, Ar² = 2,6-dimethylphenyl, 4) activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO). It was found that at polymerization temperatures below 50 °C, the average molecular weights of the obtained polynorbornenes catalyzed by these four catalytic systems increase with raising temperature, displaying bimodal distribution in GPC curves. The abnormal influence of polymerization temperature could be attributed to the existence of two kinds of catalytic species: heterobimetallic species LNi(II)(μ-Me)₂AlMe₂ (I) and monometallic species LNi(II)Me (II) (L = anilido–imino ligand) at lower temperature. The former affords a lower molecular weight polymer and the latter higher molecular weight one. With raising polymerization temperature above 50 °C, the species I disappears and only species II exists in polymerization systems, resulting in a normal relation of molecular weight to polymerization temperature. From a kinetic study of the norbornene polymerization catalyzed by 1/MAO catalyst at 70 °C, the polymerization rate (R_p) can be expressed by the formulation: R_p = k[NBE]^1.93[Ni]^0.88. Moreover, the mechanism of the norbornene polymerization using the anilido–imino nickel complexes activated with MAO is also presented and discussed.     

Addition of ethyl urethane to olefins: A new approach to the synthesis of aliphatic carbamates

Several different palladium-based catalytic systems have been investigated for the addition of urethane (NH₂COOEt) to olefins. A catalytic system based on PdCl₂(CH₃CN)₂/CuCl/O₂ gave good results only in the case of the activated olefin methyl acrylate. Catalytic systems of the type Pd(acac)₂/phosphorus ligand/acid. previously used to catalyse the telomerisation of conjugated olefins with amines, gave the desired adduct. together with the product of addition of one molecule of urethane and two molecules of diolefin, in the case of isoprene and 2.3-dimethylbutadiene. The main by-products were the dimers of the diolefin, whereas the selectivity in urethane appears to be high. In no case could the addition of urethane to an unactivated non-conjugated olefin be achieved.     

Functionalized polydiacetylene-glycolipid vesicles interacted with Escherichia coli under the TiO2 colloid

The interaction of the conjugated system between functionalized polydiacetylene-glycolipid vesicles and Escherichia coli was investigated under the bactericidal effect of TiO₂ colloid. With various pre-incubation and irradiation time, controllable bacteria quantity in the presence of TiO₂ colloid was obtained in real time. UV–visible and Raman spectra were utilized to monitor and evaluate the structural transition of bacteria-polydiacetylene-glycolipid vesicles conjugated system under the different conditions, which supplied the detailed information of the transform of the polydiacetylene backbone in real time. Thus controllable conjugated bio-interaction between two bio-interfaces was obtained through the introduction of the third factor and monitored in real time. This would be great aid in fundamental understanding more complex interfaces in the biological environment and would be applicable to the biomedical and biophysical fields.

Synthesis of six-membered cyclic siloxanes via enyne metathesis with a ruthenium catalyst generated in situ

The catalytic system in situ generated by combination of [RuCl₂(p-cymene)]₂ as a ruthenium source, 1,3-bis(mesityl)imidazolinium chloride (MesH₂ImCl) as a bulky electron-releasing carbene precursor and cesium carbonate as a base, is shown to be an efficient catalyst for the metathesis reaction of propargylic allylsilyl ethers R¹---CCCR₂---O---SiMe₂---CH₂CH=CH₂. The metathesis products, the cyclic siloxanes, were obtained after complete conversion of the enynes in 67–87% isolated yields. These six-membered ring compounds contain the 1,3-diene unit that is used in Diels–Alder reaction and give access to heterobicyclic derivatives. The resulting cyclic siloxanes are selectively opened under oxidative conditions with H₂O₂ to afford allylic diols, with fluoride to form conjugated triene and under hydrogenation conditions with Pd/C catalyst to give a tetrasubstituted alkene.     

Side Chain Functional Conjugated Porous Polymers for NIR Controlled Carbon Dioxide Adsorption and Release

Conjugated porous polymers exhibit considerable advantage as attractive candidate for carbon dioxide(CO₂) capture. However, the regeneration of the CO₂ still faces the problem of high energy cost. Here we synthesize a near-infrared region(NIR) light responsive conjugated porous polymer(PDPP-Gu) {DPP=3,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4(2H,5H)-dione} by constructing porous amorphous networks with a side chain engineering strategy to regulate CO₂ adsorption and release through photothermal conversion. The PDPP-Gu is featured by a torsional conjugated backbone as well as a functional side chain of guanidino group. The donor-acceptor configuration of PDPP-Gu afforded strong absorption in the NIR and an excellent photothermal conversion capability of up to 48.8%, as well as a high surface energy. Moreover, guanidine modified side chain further enhanced the CO₂-polymers interactions, resulting in a high CO₂ selective adsorption capacity(0.8 mmol/g) at 273 K, 1 bar(1 bar=10⁵ Pa). The adsorbed CO₂ can be released under NIR light irradiation. This strategy of molecule design combined the dual features of photothermal conversion and gas adsorption, which is beneficial for the development of materials to dynamically control the adsorption and release of CO₂ through NIR light.

[2 + 2] Dimerization of norbornadiene and its derivatives in the presence of nickel complexes and zinc metal

Norbornadiene undergoes [2 + 2] reaction in THF in the presence of NiX₂ and zinc metal powder to give an exo-trans-exo dimer and an exo-trans-exo-trans-exo trimer. In these products, the norbornadiene molecules are linked to each other by forming cyclobutane rings with all cyclobutane carbons occupying exo positions relative to the bridging carbons on the two norbornadiene fragments. Polymerization of norbornadiene occurs if the catalyst NiX₂ is replaced by Ni(PPh₃)₂Cl₂. 1,4-Dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalene, 5,8-dimethoxy-1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalene, 5-methoxy-1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphathalene and methyl 1,4-dihydro-1,4-iminonaphthalene-9-carboxylate also dimerize to give exo-trans-exo products in excellent yields in toluene in the presence of Ni(PPh₃)₂Cl₂ and Zn powder. For the dimerization products of 5-methoxy-1,4-dihydro-1–4-epoxynaphthalene, cis and trans isomers with respect to the orientation of methoxy groups in about 1 : 1 ratio were oberved. Under similar reaction conditions for the dimerization of norbornadiene, norbornene undergoes reductive dimerization to afford a product which consists of two norbornyl groups. The structure of this product is also exo-trans-exo.

反应条件对铜催化CO2电还原的影响

工业规模的化石能源消耗导致大气中二氧化碳含量不断增加,CO₂转化利用成为人们日益关注的热点问题. 金属铜因其成本低廉、储量丰富,并且具有独特的CO₂亲和力能够生成多碳化合物,是目前CO₂电还原中研究最为广泛深入的电极材料. 由于阴、阳离子的特征吸附对Cu电极性能有显著影响,并且不同反应体系中对Cu电极上CO₂吸附、活化影响也有所不同,因此导致金属Cu电极上报道的电催化活性、产物种类与选择性等都非常宽泛. 基于此,有必要系统地研究各种反应条件对金属Cu电极电催化CO₂还原性能的影响. 作者选择了平均粒径为600 nm的商品化金属Cu颗粒作为电还原CO₂的催化剂,研究了不同反应条件包括各种常用电解质溶液、KHCO₃的浓度以及H型电解池和流动池. 实验结果表明,浓度为0.5 mol·L ^-1的KHCO₃作为电解质溶液具有较好催化活性和较高的产物分电流密度,流动池可以进一步提高主要产物甲酸盐和CO的分电流密度. 本研究工作从反应条件的角度对CO₂还原的电催化转化进行了系统研究,有助于理解电解液和反应器等因素对CO₂电还原反应过程的影响规律.

CO2/NIR light dual-controlled nanoparticles for dsDNA unzipping

Both of carbon dioxide(CO2)and near-infrared(NIR)light as triggers for non-invasive remotely control are attracting wide attentions due to their good biocompatibility and easy operation.Here,CO2/NIR light dual controlled nanoparticles are proposed to remotely regulate the unzipping of dsDNA by using imidazole functionalized conjugated polymer nanoparticles(imidazole-CPNs).The dsDNA successfully coats on the shell of imidazole-CPNs to form imidazole-CPNs/dsDNA assembly due to intensively electrostatic interaction triggered by CO2.Furthermore,the unzipping process of dsDNA is remotely controlled by NIR light based on the photothermal effect,and it can be readily monitored by the fluorescence intensity of ethidium bromide(EB)and CD spectra of dsDNA.Thus,dual stimulation responsive imidazole-CPNs effectively control dsDNA unzipping under CO2 stimulus and NIR light,promising a new direction in the biological applications of DNA,such as the treatments of diseases caused by gene duplication abnormality.
