Functionalized monomers based on N-(4-hydroxy phenyl)maleimide

N-(4-Hydroxy phenyl)maleimide (HPMI) is functionalized with acryloyl, methacryloyl, allyl, propargyl and cyanate groups and the structures of the materials are characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR. Thermal curing behaviours of the monomers and thermal stabilities of the polymers are studied using thermal analysis. Introduction of polymerizable groups shifts the curing exotherm to low temperatures, and the curing behaviour is dictated by the polymerizable substituent present in the aromatic ring. Polymer from acryloyl-functionalized monomer shows the highest thermal stability (402 °C), whereas the highest char value (49 % at 700 °C) is noted for the polymer obtained from propargyl-functionalized monomer. Polymers derived from functionalization of HPMI with acryloyl and methacryloyl showed better thermal stabilities. Thermosets formed by the thermal polymerization of HPMI functionalized with propargyl and cyanate groups showed higher char values at 700 °C in nitrogen atmosphere.     

Synthesis and Polymerization of N-(L-Menthylcarboxylatomethyl)maleimide

A new type of optically active N-(L-menthylcarboxylatomethyl)maleimide (MGMI) was synthesized from maleic anhydride, glycine, and L-menthol. Radical homopolymerization of MGMI was performed at 50°C for 24 h to give optically active polymer having [α]_D = -57°. Radical copolymerizations of MGMI (M ₁) were performed with styrene (ST, M ₂), methyl methacrylate (MMA, M ₂) in benzene at 50°C. From the results, the monomer reactivity ratios (r ₁, r ₂) and the Alfrey-Price Q, e values were determined as follows: r ₁ = 0.16, r ₂ = 0.006 for the MGMI-ST system; r ₁ = 0.15, r ₂ = 1.65 for the MGMI-MMA system, and Q ₁ = 0.72, e ₁ = 1.59 calculated from the MGMI-MMA system. Anionic homopolymerizations of MGMI were also carried out. Chiroptical properties of the polymers were investigated.

Liquid crystal alignment and pretilt angle generation on a photopolymer layer based on N-(phenyl)maleimide

A photopolymer based on N-(phenyl)maleimide was synthesized and the liquid crystal (LC) alignment effects of the photopolymer layer on homeotropic alignment were studied. Good LC alignment with UV exposure of PMI5CA (N-(phenyl)maleimide with a 5-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) was obtained. However, defective LC alignment was observed for PMI3CA (N-(phenyl)maleimide with a 3-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) and PMIF (N-(phenyl)maleimide including a fluoro-cinnamoyl group). Good LC alignment with UV exposure on the PMI5CA surface was observed with annealing temperature up to 150°C. It seems that the LC aligning ability of the photopolymer layers based on N-(phenyl)maleimide depends on the side chain length of the photopolymer.

Synthesis and polymerization of N-[4-N′- (α-methylbenzyl)aminocarbonylphenyl]maleimide

A novel type of optically active N-[4-N′-(α-methylbenzyl)aminocarbonylphenyl]maleimide [(R)-MBCP] was synthesized from maleic anhydride, p-aminobenzoic acid, and (R)-methylbenzylamine. Radical homopolymerization of (R)-MBCP was performed in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 50 and 70°C for 24 h to give optically active polymers having [α]²⁵_D = -141° and -129°, respectively. Anionic polymerization of (R)-MBCP with n-butyllithium in THF and N,N-dimethylformamide gave an optically active polymer having ?78 to ?81° of [α]²⁵_D. Radical copolymerizations of (R)-MBCP (M₁) were performed with styrene (ST, M₂) and methyl methacrylate (MMA, M₂) in THF at 50°C. The monomer reactivity ratios (r₁, r₂) and the Alfrey-Price Q-e values were determined as follows: r₁ = 0.009, r₂ = 0.091, Q₁ = 1.30, e₁ = 1.87 in the (R)-MBCP-ST; r₁ = 0.27, r₂ = 1.21, Q₁ = 0.93, e₁ = 1.46 in the (R)-MBCP-MMA system. Chiroptical properties of the polymers were also investigated. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis,characterization and antibacterial studies of some new tellurated azo compounds

A series of tellurated azo compounds [i.e. (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)TeBr₃ and (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)₂TeBr₂, where Ar=5-BrC₆H₃, 5-CH₃C₆H₃ and 5-NO₂C₆H₃] were prepared by the reaction of the corresponding 2-(4-hydroxyphenylazo)aryl mercury chloride with tellurium tetrabromide in 1:1 and 2:1?mole ratio, respectively in dry dioxane as a solvent. The reduction of (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)TeBr₃ by hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding ditelluride (i.e., (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)₂Te₂). Treatment of (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)₂TeBr₂ with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding tellurides, (4-HOC₆H₄N=N-Ar)₂Te), in good yields. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were assigned on the basis of their elemental and spectroscopic data. The antibacterial activity of tellurated azo compounds along with mercurated azo compounds was tested with agar diffusion method against the bacteria strains Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The antibacterial activities of tellurated azo compounds were in some cases equal or better than those of the reference drug. The mercurated azo compounds were found to be the more antibacterial activity of than those of tellurated azo compounds.     

Synthesis and characterization of new poly(N-1-adamantylmaleimide) and poly(N-1-diamantylmaleimide)

N-l-Diamantylmaleimide was synthesized by reaction of maleic anhydride with 1-aminodiamantane, followed by dehydration with acetic anhydride and sodium acetate. Poly(N-1-adamantylmaleimide) ( IIa ) and poly(N-l-diamantylmaleimide) ( IIb ) were polymerized using 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator under different experimental conditions such as various initiator concentrations, solvents, polymerization temperatures, and polymerization times. Polymerizations of N-l-adamantylmaleimide in benzene at 60°C or in bulk gave polymers with molecular weights (2000–9500). The experimental results indicated that the propagation may be interrupted by steric hindrance of bulky and rigid substituents such as the adamantyl or diamantyl groups. In addition, the effect of chain transfer to monomer contributes to the relatively low activation energy. The glass transition temperatures of Ia and Ib were 204 and 216°C, respectively. The temperatures at 5% weight loss of the polymers IIa and IIb were above 412°C. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Syntheses and thermostabilities of N-[4-(N′-substituted aminocarbonyl)phenyl]maleimide polymers

Three types of novel N-[4-(N′-substituted aminocarbonyl)phenyl] maleimide (RPhMI: N-substituent (R) = phenyl, cyclohexyl, and cyclododecyl) were synthesized and homopolymerized under several conditions. In the copolymerizations of RPhMI (M₁) with styrene (ST; M₂) or methyl methacrylate (MMA; M₂), monomer reactivity ratios and Alfrey-Price Q, e values were determined. All homopolymers decomposed without softening and melting points. The initial degradation temperatures (T_d) of poly(RPhMI)s were over 320°C. The glass transition temperatures (T_g) of RPhMI copolymers were much higher than those of N-phenylmaleimide (PhMI)–ST, PhMI–MMA, N-cyclohexylmaleimide (CHMI)–ST, and CHMI–MMA copolymers. Thermal stability of the terpolymers of RPhMI with ST and acrylonitrile (AN) was higher than that of ST–AN copolymers, i.e., AS resin. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. A Polym.
