Extinction coefficients of the characteristic infrared bands due to isomeric structural units were measured for polybutadiene and polyisoprene in CS2 or CCl4 solutions and were compared with the isomer composition determined by NMR. The NMR signal assignments were made on the basis of the spectra of deutero derivatives of the polymers. In the case of polyisoprene, linear relations were obtained between the extinction coefficients and the isomer contents determined by NMR for the absorption bands at 1385 cm?1 (characteristic of trans-1,4 units), 1376 cm?1 (cis-1,4 units), and 889 cm?1 (3,4 units). However, for the absorption bands at 840 cm?1 (characteristic of cis-1,4 and trans-1,4 units), isomerized polyisoprenes did not give such a linear relationship. In polybutadiene, the extinction coefficient for the atactic 1,2 units was found to be lower than that of the syndiotactic 1,2 unit. These experimental facts lead to the conclusion that additivity of the extinction coefficients does not always hold for diene polymers. The deviation from the linear relation may be associated with regular sequences of one isomeric conformation in the chain. 相似文献
Metathesis of hex-1-ene in ionic liquids catalyzed by WCl6 was studied. The metathesis is preceded by isomerization of hex-1-ene to hex-2-ene, from which the main reaction product, viz., oct-4-ene, is derived. The WCl6-1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIM·BF4) system efficiently catalyzes metathesis of linear olefin, the ionic liquid serving as the reaction medium by forming a stable homogeneous catalytic system with WCl6. The yields of the metathesis products increase with increasing reaction temperature. The addition of tin-containing promoters leads to a substantial increase in the reaction rate. In the WCl6-BMIM·BF4-SnBu4 system, the selectivity of the formation of oct-4-ene is significantly enhanced.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A number of substituted indenols have been synthesized using ruthenium-mediated ring-closing metathesis (RCM) with Grubbs second generation catalyst as the key step. The required dienes were synthesized by two strategies. The first entailed the isomerization of 2-allyl-3-isopropoxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde to its styrene derivative, isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-propenylbenzaldehyde using [RuClH(CO)(PPh3)3]. This compound and 3-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-(1-phenyl-propenyl)-benzaldehyde were then treated with vinyl- or isopropenyl-magnesium bromide to afford four of the scaffolds required for the metathesis. As the compound 3-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-(1-methyl-2-propenyl)benzaldehyde proved to be difficult to isomerize, the diene substrates 1-[3-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-(1-methylpropenyl)-phenyl]-prop-2-en-1-ol and 1-[3-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-(1-methylpropenyl)-phenyl]-2-methylprop-2-en-1-ol were synthesized by the addition of the Grignard reagents to 3-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-(1-methyl-2-propenyl)benzaldehyde, followed by isomerization of the arylallyl group to the thermodynamically favoured isomer with potassium t-butoxide. The use of harsher conditions (higher temperature and catalyst loadings) for the metathesis reactions resulted in the formation of substituted indenones, formed by a tandem RCM-dehydrogenative oxidation in the absence of a hydrogen acceptor. Further manipulations of the reaction conditions generated two substituted indanones by way of a tandem RCM-formal redox isomerization sequence. Finally the synthesis of some substituted indenes was accomplished from their corresponding dienes by the use of RCM. 相似文献
The results of the molecular modelling of the intramolecular metathesis degradation of cis‐polybutadiene (cis‐PB) into cyclic oligomers at PM3 level of theory showed that the chain‐ring equilibrium is completely shifted towards the all‐trans cyclic isomers. The formation of cyclic products, containing from three to six butadiene units, from larger rings is thermodynamically favoured with cyclic butadiene tetramers and pentamers being the main products. These results are in reasonable agreement with most of the available experimental data. The discrepancy observed in some cases between found and calculated ring distributions for the intramolecular metathesis degradation of cis‐PB suggests that the reaction is kinetically controlled under certain conditions. 相似文献
The copolymerization of butadiene and propylene was investigated. It was found that the catalyst system of TiCl4–Et3Al–COCl2 yields a random copolymer of high molecular weight with a small amount of gel polymer above room temperature. Tetrachloroethylene was a good solvent for the production of high polymer containing a high proportion of propylene units in high yield. The fractionation and the analysis of degradation experiments of copolymer indicate that the copolymer is of random distribution of propylene units in the copolymer. However, the monomer reactivity ratios, rBD = 6.36 and rPr = 0.42, suggest some degree of blocked character. The properties of the copolymer were superior to those of cis-1,4–polybutadiene, especially in resistance to thermal aging. 相似文献
Novel photoresponsive linear, graft, and comb‐like copolymers with azobenzene chromophores in the main‐chain and/or side‐chain are prepared via a sequential ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and head‐to‐tail acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization in a one‐pot procedure using Grubbs ruthenium‐based catalysts. The diluted solutions of these as‐prepared copolymers containing azobenzene chromophores exhibit photochemical trans–cis isomerization under the irradiation of UV light, followed by their cis–trans back‐isomerization in visible light. The rates of photoisomerization are found to be slower than those of back‐isomerization, and the rate for the comb‐like copolymer is found to be from 3 to 7 times slower than that obtained for the linear or graft copolymer. This is ascribed to the differences in structure of the copolymers and the specific location of azobenzene chromophores in the copolymer, which favor a side‐chain graft structure.
A study of the monomer isomerization polymerization of 2-, 3-, and 4-octenes has been made with TiCl3–(C2H5)3Al catalyst at 80°C in comparison with the ordinary polymerization of 1-octene. It was found that all these octenes underwent monomer-isomerization polymerization to give high-molecular-weight homopolymer consisting exclusively of the 1-octene unit. The addition of an isomerization catalyst such as nickel acetylacetonate accelerated this polymerization. The rates of polymerization were found to decrease in the following order: 1-octene > 2-octene > 3-octene > 4-octene. These results indicate that the isomerization proceeded by a stepwise double-bond migration. It was also found that the monomer-isomerization copolymerization of 2-octene and 2-butene occurred under similar conditions and produced copolymers of both 1-olefin units. 相似文献
The results of molecular modeling of the ring distributions for the intramolecular metathesis degradation of natural rubber (NR) at HF/6–31G(d) level of theory showed that in the ring‐ring equilibrium participate cyclic oligomers containing from two to four isoprene units with all‐trans cyclic isoprene trimer being the main product. The formation of trans,trans,trans‐1,5,9‐trimethyl‐1,5,9‐cyclododecatriene from larger rings is thermodynamically favored. According to the calculations, the ring‐ring equilibrium for the intramolecular metathesis degradation of cis‐polybutadiene (cis‐PB) is completely shifted towards the all‐trans cyclic butadiene trimer. These results are in reasonable agreement with recent experimental data. 相似文献
A variety of 1-aryl-1,3-dienes were isomerized from E to Z isomers by photocatalysis using Ru(bpy)3[PF6]2 and blue LED light. Enrichment of the Z-isomer is thought to occur by selective triplet energy transfer from the photocatalyst to the stereoisomeric mixture. The 1,3-diene starting materials are easily made by catalytic ene-yne metathesis (EYM). To access 1,3-diene Z-stereoisomers directly, a one pot procedure was developed. Additional 1,3-dienes were investigated for both isomerization and Z-enrichment. The combination of cross EYM with photocatalysis allows for the stereoconvergent synthesis of Z-1,3-dienes. 相似文献
The polymerization of phenylacetylene initiated by MoCl5 and WCl6 based initiators was monitored directly in the NMR sample tube and demonstrated the presence of backbiting and intramolecular cyclization reactions. It was shown that the ratio of cis to trans structural units obtained by isomerization prior to double bond formation dictates the degree of backbiting and intramolecular cyclization reactions. This cis–trans ratio determines the length of cis–transoidal sequences present in the polymer backbone which are available for both backbiting and intrachain cyclization reactions. The cyclic trimers obtained in the metathesis polymerization of phenylacetylene are formed only through the cis–cisoidal-induced backbiting and/or intramolecular reactions. The o-trimethylsilylphenylacetylene follows a living mechanism of polymerization. This is due to the fact that the size of the ortho substituent suppresses the cis–transoidal to cis–cisoidal isomerization reactions and therefore eliminates the backbiting reactions. The steric hindrance provided by the size of the ortho substituent also eliminates interchain and intrachain reactions. 相似文献
Olefin isomerization side reactions that occur during ADMET polymerizations were studied by preparing polyesters via ADMET and subsequently degrading these polyesters via transesterification with methanol. The resulting diesters, representing the repeating units of the previously prepared polyesters, were then analyzed by GC‐MS. This strategy allowed quantification of the amount of olefin isomerization that took place during ADMET polymerization with second generation ruthenium metathesis catalysts. In a second step, it was shown that the addition of benzoquinone to the polymerization mixture prevented the olefin isomerization. Therefore, second generation ruthenium metathesis catalysts may now be used for the preparation of well‐defined polymers via ADMET with very little isomerization, which was not possible before.
N‐Alkyl‐N‐allyl‐2‐alkynylaniline derivatives undergo a tandem ring‐closing enyne metathesis/isomerization/Diels–Alder cycloaddition sequence in the presence of a second‐generation Grubbs catalyst and dienophiles. In practice, the acyclic enyne in the presence of the ruthenium alkylidene first undergoes ring‐closing metathesis to generate cyclic 4‐vinyl‐1,2‐dihydroquinolines; following diene isomerization and then the addition of a dienophile, these ring‐closing metathesis products are selectively converted into a 7‐methyl‐4H‐naphtho[3,2,1‐de]quinoline‐8,11‐dione core. Overall, the reaction sequence converts simple aniline derivatives into π‐conjugated small molecules, which have characteristic absorption in the near‐infrared region, in a single operation through three unique ruthenium‐catalyzed transformations. 相似文献
Reactions of photoisomerization proceeding through a “funnel” are discussed (Fig. 1a, θ ? θ*, where θ is the angle of isomerization). Strong nonadiabatic interactions in the region of conical intersection of the multidimensional adiabatic potentials Us and Us0 are supposed to be responsible for the ultrafast nonradiative transition S → K2S0 (K2 ? 1010-1012 s?1). The K2 dependence on the solvent viscosity (isomerization of t-stilbene in series ethanol--octanol) and polarity (isomerization of cyanine dyes in polar solvents) was determined to be in a good agreement with experiments. 相似文献
The WCl6 and MoCl5 initiated polymerizations of 3-chloro-1-propyne and 3-bromo-1-propyne were performed in both halogenated and aliphatic non-nucleophilic and in aromatic nucleophilic solvents. The structure of the obtained polymers suggested that the polymerization reaction occurs in two steps. In both nucleophilic and non-nucleophilic solvents, the first step consists of the metathesis polymerization of 3-chloro(bromo)-1-propyne followed by electrophilic cis–trans isomerization leading to polymers containing trans-cisoidal allyl chloride or bromide structural units. When the polymerization is performed in non-nucleophilic solvents, in the second step an intramolecular electrophilic addition followed by elimination takes place. The resulting polymers contain a highly conjugated cyclopentadiene ladder structure. When the polymerization is performed in nucleophilic aromatic solvents, the intramolecular electrophilic addition competes with the electrophilic substitution of the solvent resulting in polymers containing high concentrations of arylpropenyl structural units. Subsequently, depending on the nucleophilicity of the polymerization solvent, the polymer structure contains structural units based on cyclopentadiene and/or arylpropenyl groups. 相似文献
ABS resins formed by copolymerization of styrene and acrylonitrile (AN) in presence of polybutadiene, consist of a mixture of SAN graft copolymer on polybutadiene (PBut) and of ungrafted SAN copolymer (styrene-co-acrylonitrile). The kinetic study was completed by showing a preferential solvation of polybutadiene by the initiator. This solvation effect was studied as a function of the concentration ratio SAN/PBut and in relation with the type of initiator. The adsorption of initiator appeared to be maximum when its solubility parameter (σ) is close to that of polybutadiene. As a function of the polybutadiene characteristics, this selective adsorption can be given by where I1 is the quantity of initiator in the polybutadiene medium, I is the total amount of peroxide, [PBut] is the concentration of polybutadiene, and M?n its molecular weight. It has been shown furthermore that the preferential solvation of polybutadiene by the benzoyl peroxide can be increased by addition of SAN or acrylonitrile. The consequences of this solvation effect on the characteristics of the grafting reaction, more precisely on the molecular weight of grafted and ungrafted SAN and on the rate of polymerization, were examined. 相似文献
The homopolymerization of trans-1,4-hexadiene, cis-1,4-hexadiene, and 5-methyl-1,4-hexadiene was investigated with a variety of catalysts. During polymerization, 1,4-hexadienes undergo concurrent isomerization reactions. The nature and extent of isomerization products are influenced by the monomer structure and polymerization conditions. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and infrared (IR) data show that poly(trans-1,4-hexadiene) and poly(cis-1,4-hexadiene) prepared with a Et3Al/α-TiCl3/hexamethylphosphoric triamide catalyst system consist mainly of 1,2-polymerization units arranged in a regular head-to-tail sequence. A 300-MHz proton NMR spectrum shows that the trans-hexadiene polymer is isotactic; it also may be the case for the cis-hexadiene polymer. These polymers are the first examples of uncrosslinked ozone-resistant rubbers containing pendant unsaturation on alternating carbon atoms of the saturated carbon-carbon backbone. Polymerization of the 1,4-hexadienes was also studied with VOCl3- and β-TiCl3-based catalysts. Microstructures of the resulting polymers are quite complicated due to significant loss of unsaturation, in contrast to those obtained with the α-TiCl3-based catalyst. In agreement with the literature, there was no discernible monomer isomerization with the VOCl3 catalyst system. 相似文献
