Single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) represents a robust and versatile method for the rapid synthesis of macromolecules with defined architecture. The present article describes the polymerization of methyl methacrylate by SET‐LRP in protic solvent mixtures. Herein, the polymerization process was catalyzed by a straightforward Cu(0)wire/Me6‐TREN catalyst while initiation was obtained by toluenesulfonyl chloride. All experiments were conducted at 50 °C and the living polymerization was demonstrated by kinetic evaluation of the SET‐LRP. The process follows first order kinetic until all monomer is consumed which was typically achieved within 4 h. The molecular weight increased linearly with conversion and the molecular weight distributions were very narrow with Mw/Mn ~ 1.1. Detailed investigations of the polymer samples by MALDI‐TOF confirmed that no termination took place and that the chain end functionality is retained throughout the polymerization process. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Use of ionic liquids as reaction media was investigated in the design of an environmentally friendly single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) for acrylonitrile (AN) without any ligand by using Fe(0) wire as catalyst and 2‐bromopropionitrile as initiator. 1‐Methylimidazolium acetate ([mim][AT]), 1‐methylimidazolium propionate ([mim][PT]), and 1‐methylimidazolium valerate ([mim][VT]) were applied in this study. First‐order kinetics of polymerization with respect to the monomer concentration, linear increase of the molecular weight, and narrow polydispersity with monomer conversion showed the controlled/living radical polymerization characters. The sequence of the apparent polymerization rate constant of SET‐LRP of AN was kapp ([mim][AT]) > kapp ([mim][PT]) > kapp ([mim][VT]). The living feature of the polymerization was also confirmed by chain extensions of polyacrylonitrile with methyl methacrylate. All three ionic liquids were recycled and reused and had no obvious effect on the controlled/living nature of SET‐LRP of AN. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A simple method for the activation of the Cu(0) wire used as catalyst in single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) is reported. The surface of Cu(0) stored in air is coated with a layer of Cu2O. It is well established that Cu2O is a less reactive catalyst for SET‐LRP than Cu(0). We report here the activation of the Cu(0) wire under nitrogen by the reduction of Cu2O from its surface to Cu(0) by treatment with hydrazine hydrate. The kinetics of SET‐LRP of methyl acrylate (MA) catalyzed with activated Cu(0) wire in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 25 °C demonstrated a dramatic acceleration of the polymerization and the absence of the induction period observed during SET‐LRP catalyzed with nonactivated Cu(0) in several laboratories. Exposure of the activated Cu(0) wire to air results in a lower apparent rate constant of propagation because of gradual oxidation of Cu(0) to Cu2O. This dramatic acceleration of SET‐LRP is similar to that observed with commercial Cu(0) nanopowder except that the polymerization provides excellent molecular weight evolution, very narrow molecular weight distribution and high polymer chain‐end functionality. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of methyl acrylate (MA) in methanol, catalyzed with nonactivated and activated Cu(0) wires, was performed in the presence of nondeoxygenated reagents and was investigated under a simple blanket of nitrogen. The addition of a small amount of hydrazine hydrate mediates the deoxygenation of the reaction mixture by the consumption of oxygen through its use to oxidize Cu(0) to Cu2O, followed by the reduction of Cu2O with hydrazine back to the active Cu(0) catalyst. SET‐LRP of MA in methanol in the presence of air requires a smaller dimension of Cu(0) wire, compared to the nonactivated Cu(0) wire counterpart. Activation of Cu(0) wire allowed the polymerization in air to proceed with no induction period, linear first‐order kinetics, linear correlation between the molecular weight evolution with conversion, and narrow molecular weight distribution. The retention of chain‐end functionality of α,ω‐di(bromo) poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA) prepared by SET‐LRP was demonstrated by a combination of experiments including 1H NMR spectroscopy and matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry after thioetherification of α,ω‐di(bromo) PMA with thiophenol. In SET‐LRP of MA in the presence of limited air, bimolecular termination is observed only above 85% conversion. However, for bifunctional initiators, the small amount of bimolecular termination observed at high conversion maintains a perfectly bifunctional polymer. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The Cu(0)‐mediated single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of methyl methacrylate (MMA) using ethyl 2‐bromoisobutyrate (EBiB) as an initiator with Cu(0)/N,N,N′,N′′,N′′‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine as a catalyst system in 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (HFIP) was studied. The polymerization showed some living features: the measured number‐average molecular weight (Mn,GPC) increased with monomer conversion and produced polymers with relatively low polydispersities. The increase of HFIP concentration improved the controllability over the polymerization with increased initiation efficiency and lowered polydispersity values. 1H NMR, MALDI‐TOF‐MS spectra, and chain extension reaction confirmed that the resultant polymer was end‐capped by EBiB species, and the polymer can be reactivated for chain extension. In contrast, in the cases of dimethyl sulfoxide or N,N‐dimethylformamide as reaction solvent, the polymerizations were uncontrolled. The different effects of the solvents on the polymerization indicated that the mechanism of SET‐LRP differed from that of atom transfer radical polymerization. Moreover, HFIP also facilitated the polymerization with control over stereoregularity of the polymers. Higher concentration of HFIP and lower reaction temperature produced higher syndiotactic ratio. The syndiotactic ratio can be reached to about 0.77 at 1/1.5 (v/v) of MMA/HFIP at ?18 °C. In conclusion, using HFIP as SET‐LRP solvent, the dual control over the molecular weight and tacticity of PMMA was realized. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Isobornyl methacrylate (IBMA), a bulky hydrophobic methacrylate, undergoes very fast polymerization, in bulk, with Cu(I)Br/N,N,N′,N″,N″‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA)/ethyl‐2‐bromoisobutyrate system, at ambient temperature. IBMA also undergoes a spontaneous initiator‐free polymerization, at ambient temperature, with Cu(I)Br/PMDETA catalytic system in dimethyl sulfoxide–water mixtures. The rate of the polymerization is seen to increase with the water content up to 80 mol % of water. A possible intervention of air in initiation is proposed. The active Cu(0) formed by the disproportionation of Cu(I) species in aqueous medium probably plays a vital role for a possible air‐initiation of IBMA via single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) mechanism. A high tolerance level to water under SET‐LRP conditions is demonstrated. The poly(IBMA) samples obtained exhibit low molecular weight distributions (1.1–1.3). Similar behavior was not observed with other common methacrylates such as methyl methacrylate, t‐butyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate, and benzyl methacrylate. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN‐catalyzed single‐electron transfer mediated living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of methyl acrylate in the presence of the classic 4‐methoxyphenol free radical inhibitor was investigated. Kinetic experiments, combined with 1H NMR, and MALDI‐TOF MS analysis of the resulting polyacrylates demonstrated that SET‐LRP is a robust synthetic method that does not require the purification of the monomers to remove the radical inhibitor. It is anticipated that these results will contribute to the expansion of technological and fundamental applications of SET‐LRP since it allows the synthesis of polymers with a structural perfection that previously was not accessible by any other method, starting from unpurified monomers, solvents, initiators, and ligands. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Samarium powder was applied as a catalyst for single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of acrylonitrile (AN) in 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (HFIP) with 2‐bromopropionitrile as initiator and N,N,N,N′‐tetramethylethylenediamine as ligand. First‐order kinetics of polymerization with respect to the monomer concentration, linear increase of the molecular weight with monomer conversion, and the highly syndiotactic polyacrylonitrile (PAN) obtained indicate that the SET‐LRP of AN could simultaneously control molecular weight and tacticity of PAN. An increase in syndiotacticity of PAN obtained in HFIP was observed compared with that obtained by SET‐LRP in N,‐N‐dimethylformamide (DMF). The syndiotacticity markedly increased with the HFIP volume. The syndiotacticity of PAN prepared by SET‐LRP of AN using Sm powder as catalyst in DMF was higher than that prepared with Cu powder as catalyst. The increase in syndiotacticity of PAN with Sm content was more pronounced than the increase in its isotacticity. The block copolymer PAN‐b‐polymethyl methacrylate (52,310 molecular weight and 1.34 polydispersity) was successfully prepared. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) proceeds by an outer‐sphere single‐electron transfer mechanism that induces a heterolytic bond cleavage of the initiating and propagating R‐X (where X = Cl, Br, and I) species. Therefore, unlike the homolytic bond cleavage mechanism claimed for ATRP, SET‐LRP is expected to show a small dependence of the nature of the halide group on the apparent rate constant of activation. This means the R‐X with X = Cl, Br, and I must all be efficient initiators for SET‐LRP and no chain transfer must be observed in the case of initiators with X = Br and I. Here, we report the SET‐LRP of methyl acrylate initiated with the alkyl chlorides methyl‐2‐chloropropionate (MCP) and chloroform (CHCl3) and catalyzed by Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN/CuCl2 in DMSO at 25 °C. A combination of kinetic and structural analysis was used to elucidate the MCP and CHCl3 initiating behavior under SET‐LRP conditions, and to demonstrate the very small dependence of the SET‐LRP apparent rate constant of propagation on X while providing polymers with well defined architecture. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

SET‐LRP is mediated by a combination of solvent and ligand that promotes disproportionation of Cu(I)X into Cu(0) and Cu(II)X2. Therefore, the diversity of solvents suitable for SET‐LRP is limited. SET‐LRP of MA in a library of solvents with different equilibrium constants for disproportionation of Cu(I)X such as DMSO, DMF, DMAC, EC, PC, EtOH, MeOH, methoxyethanol, NMP, acetone and in their binary mixtures with H2O was examined. H2O exhibits the highest equilibrium constant for disproportionation of Cu(I)X. The apparent rate constant of the polymerization exhibits a linear increase with the addition of H2O. This is consistent with higher equilibrium constants for disproportionation generated by addition of H2O to organic solvents. Furthermore, with the exception of alcohols and carbonates, the rate constant of polymerization in binary mixtures could be correlated with the Dimroth‐Reichardt solvent polarity parameter. This is consistent with the single‐electron transfer mechanism proposed for SET‐LRP that involves a polar transition state. These experiments demonstrate that the use of binary mixtures of solvents with H2O provides a new, simple and efficient method for the elaboration of a large diversity of reaction media that are suitable for SET‐LRP even when one of the two solvents does not mediate disproportionation of Cu(I)X. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Cu(0)‐wire/Me6‐TREN is a well established catalyst for living radical polymerization via SET–LRP. Here, it is demonstrated that this polymerization is not just living, but it is in fact the first example of immortal living radical polymerization. The immortality of SET–LRP mediated with Cu(0) wire was demonstrated by attempting, in an unsuccessful way, to irreversible interrupt multiple times the polymerization via exposure to O2 from air. SET–LRP indeed stopped each time when the reaction mixture was exposed to air. However, the SET–LRP reaction, was restarted each time after resealing the reaction vessel and reestablishing the catalytic cycle with the same Cu(0) wire, to produce the same conversion as in the conventional uninterrupted SET–LRP process. Despite the interruption by O2, the reactivated SET–LRP had a good control of molecular weight, molecular weight evolution, and molecular weight distribution, with perfect retention of chain‐end fidelity. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Alcohols are known to promote the disproportionation of Cu(I)X species into nascent Cu(0) and Cu(II)X. Therefore, alcohols are expected to be excellent solvents that facilitate the single‐electron transfer mediated living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) mediated by nascent Cu(0) species. This publication demonstrates the ultrafast SET‐LRP of methyl acrylate initiated with bis(2‐bromopropionyloxy)ethane and catalyzed by Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN in methanol, ethanol, 1‐propanol, and tert‐butanol and in their mixture with water at 25 °C. The structural analysis of the resulting polymers by a combination of 1H NMR and MALDI‐TOF MS demonstrates the synthesis of perfectly bifunctional α,ω‐dibromo poly(methyl acrylate)s by SET‐LRP in alcohols. Moreover, this work provides an expansion of the list of solvents available for SET‐LRP. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 2745–2754, 2008  相似文献

The single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of vinyl chloride (VC) initiated with CHBr3 in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) at 25 °C was investigated using Cu(0) powder and Cu(0) wire as the catalyst. It was determined that living kinetics and high conversion are achieved only through the proper calibration of the ratio between Cu(0) and TREN and the concentration of VC in DMSO. For both Cu(0) powder and Cu(0) wire, optimum conversion was achieved with higher levels of TREN than reported in earlier preliminary reports and under more dilute conditions. Using these conditions, 85+% conversion of VC could be achieved with Cu(0) powder and wire to produce white poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) with Mn = 20,000 and Mw/Mn = 1.4–1.6 in 360 min. The use of Cu(0) wire provides the most effective catalytic system for the LRP of PVC allowing for simple removal and recycling of the catalyst. In the Cu(0) wire‐catalyzed SET‐LRP of VC, the consumption of Cu(0) was monitored as a function of conversion. From these studies, it is evident that the catalyst can be recycled extensively before significant exchange of Cu(0) into Cu(II)X2 and change in catalyst surface area is observed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) has developed as a reliable, robust and straight forward method for the construction well‐defined polymers. To span an even larger variety of functional monomers, we investigated the copolymerization of methyl methacrylate with methacrylic acid by SET‐LRP. Copolymerizations were catalyzed by Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN and performed in MeOH/H2O mixtures at 50 °C. The SET‐LRP copolymerizations of varying methacrylic acid content were evaluated by kinetic experiments. At low (2.5%) and moderate (10%) MAA loadings, the copolymerizations obeyed perfect first order kinetics (kpapp = 0.008 min?1 and kpapp = 0.006 min?1) and exhibited a linear increase in molecular weights with conversion providing narrow molecular weight distributions. The SET‐LRP of MMA/25%‐MAA was found to be significantly slower (kpapp = 0.0035 min?1). However, a reasonable first‐order kinetics in monomer consumption was maintained, and the control of the polymerization process was preserved since the molecular weight increased linearly with conversion and could therefore be adjusted. This work demonstrates that the copolymerization of methacrylic acid by SET‐LRP is feasible and the design of well‐defined macromolecules comprising acidic functionality can be achieved. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Cu(0) was prepared via disproportionation of Cu(I)Br in the presence of Me6‐TREN in various solvents in a glove box. The resulting nanopowders were used as mimics of “nascent” Cu(0) catalyst in the single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of methyl acrylate (MA), providing faster polymerization than any commercial Cu(0) powder, Cu(0) wire, or Cu(I)Br and achieving 80% conversion in only 5 min reaction time. Despite the high rate, a living polymerization was observed with linear evolution of molecular weight, narrow polydispersity, no induction period, and high retention of chain‐end functionality. In addition to providing an unprecedentedly fast, yet controlled LRP of MA, these studies suggest that the very small “nascent” Cu(0) species formed via disproportionation in SET‐LRP are the most active catalysts. Thus, when bulk Cu(0) powder or wire may be the most abundant catalyst and dictates the overall kinetics, any Cu(0) produced via disproportionation will be rapidly consumed and contributes to the overall catalytic cycle. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this work, single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) was catalyzed by in situ Cu(0) generated from copper sulphate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O) and hydrazine hydrate (N2H4·H2O) at 25 °C. The polymerization occurred smoothly with moderate controllability: the polymerization rates increased by the increases of N2H4·H2O, and the initiator concentration had an optimal value on the polymerization rate; the number‐average molecular weights (Mn,GPC) increased with monomer conversions and polydispersities were below 1.40. The Mn,GPC deviated much from theoretical ones with about 50% polymer chain‐end fidelities. Some side reactions stemming from the strong reduction performance of N2H4·H2O were responsible for the mildly controlled polymerizations. This polymerization can be conducted in SET‐LRP unfavorable solvents or in bulk, such as toluene and tetrahydrofuran, owing to the H2O contained in CuSO4·5H2O and N2H4·H2O. On account of the utilization of CuSO4·5H2O, an inactive Cu(II) compounds in LRP area, this work confirmed from experimental level that it was Cu(0) which acted as activator and mediator in SET‐LRP. This work provided a first example of in situ Cu(0) catalyzing SET‐LRP with CuSO4·5H2O as a copper source. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011  相似文献

Sn(0)‐mediated single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of acrylonitrile (AN) with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) as initiator and hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) as ligand in N, N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) was studied. The polymerization obeyed first order kinetic. The molecular weight of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) increased linearly with monomer conversion and PAN exhibited narrow molecular weight distributions. Increasing the content of Sn(0) resulted in an increase in the molecular weight and the molecular weight distribution. Effects of ligand and initiator were also investigated. The block copolymer PAN‐b‐polymethyl methacrylate with molecular weight at 126,130 and polydispersity at 1.36 was successfully obtained. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Here we reported the acid dissolution of copper oxides as a methodology for the activation of Cu(0) wire used as catalyst in single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP). In this method, the oxide layer on the surface of commercial Cu(0) wire was removed by dissolution in a concentrated acid such as nitric acid, glacial acetic acid and hydrochloric acid. SET‐LRP of methyl acrylate catalyzed with Cu(0) wire activated with acids showed comparable k value to that of the nonactivated Cu(0) wire‐catalyzed counterpart. However, the polymerizations catalyzed with activated Cu(0) wire proceeded with no initial induction period, predictable molecular weight evolution with conversion, and narrow molecular weight distribution. Regardless of the activation method, the chain end functionality of α,ω‐di(bromo) poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA) prepared from SET‐LRP initiated with a bifunctional initiator is extremely high, maintaining a 100% chain end functionality at ~90% monomer conversion. The degree of bimolecular termination increased as the polymerization exceeds 92% conversion. However, for binfunctional initiators this small amount of bimolecular termination at high conversion maintains a perfectly bifunctional polymer. Structural analysis by MALDI‐TOF upon thioetherification of α,ω‐di(bromo) PMA with thiophenol and 4‐fluorothiophenol confirmed the high fidelity of bromide chain ends. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) represents a robust and versatile method for the rapid synthesis of macromolecules with defined architecture. The synthesis of poly(methyl methacrylate) via SET‐LRP in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) by using CCl4 as initiator is demonstrated in this work. Resorting to a rather simple Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN catalyst a method was established that allowed for the straightforward design of well‐defined poly(methyl methacrylate). The reactions were performed at various temperatures (25, 50, 60, and 80 °C) and complete monomer conversion could be achieved. The polymerizations obeyed first order kinetic, the molecular weights increased linearly with conversion and the polymers exhibited narrow molecular weight distributions all indicating the livingness of the process. By providing a small amount of hydrazine to the reaction mixture the polymerization could be conducted in presence of air omitting the need for any elaborated deoxygenation procedures. This methodology offers an elegant way to synthesize functionalized poly(methyl methacrylate) with perfect control over the polymerization process as well as molecular architecture. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
