Summary: A kind of novel dibromocarbazole monomer bearing three alkyl chains was prepared. Two strategies were developed to improve the solubility and molecular weight of carbazole polymers. One was the polymerization of N‐octyl‐2,7‐bis(4,4,5,5‐tetramethyl‐1,3,2‐dioxaborolan‐2‐yl)carbazole with the alkylated dibromocarbazole. Another one was the polymerization of N‐octyl‐2,7‐bis(4,4,5,5‐tetramethyl‐1,3,2‐dioxaborolan‐2‐yl)carbazole with N‐octyl‐3,6‐dibromocarbazole. All the polymerizations were carried out under palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki polycondensation (SPC) conditions. Through using carbazole monomer bearing three alkyl chains to polymerize, we have successfully boosted the number‐average molecular weight of 2,7‐linked carbazole polymers from not more than 5 to 67 kDa. The high‐molecular‐weight polymers were obtained in high yields and displayed good solubility in common organic solvents. Their optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties were also reported.

A new method for the preparation of exactly alternating silarylene–siloxane polymers by the low temperature step-growth condensation polymerization reaction of arylenedisilanols and bisurei-dosilanes in chlorobenzene was investigated. To obtain high molecular weight products 1H NMR spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography were used to monitor the polymerization reaction. By using these procedures 12 different polymers were prepared from 1,4-bis(dimethylhydroxysilyl)-benzene, 4,4′-bis(dimethylhydroxysilyl)phenyl ether, bis(1,1-tetramethylene-3-phenylureido)-dimethylsilane, and bis(1,1-tetramethylene-3-phenylureido)-methylvinylsilane monomers. The polymers were obtained in high yields, purities, and molecular weights. 相似文献
Molecular brushes (densely grafted polymers or bottle-brush macromolecules) were synthesized by the "grafting onto" method via combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and "click" reactions. Linear poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) polymers were synthesized first by ATRP. After esterification reactions between pentynoic acid and the hydroxyl side groups, polymeric backbones with alkynyl side groups on essentially every monomer unit (PHEMA-alkyne) were obtained. Five kinds of azido-terminated polymeric side chains (SCs) with different chemical compositions and molecular weights were used, including poly(ethylene glycol)-N3 (PEO-N3), polystyrene-N3, poly(n-butyl acrylate)-N3, and poly(n-butyl acrylate)-b-polystyrene-N3. All click coupling reactions between alkyne-containing polymeric backbones (PHEMA-alkyne) and azido-terminated polymeric SCs were completed within 3 h. The grafting density of the obtained molecular brushes was affected by several factors, including the molecular weights and the chemical structures of the linear SCs, as well as the initial molar ratio of linear chains to alkynyl groups. When linear polymers with "thinner" structure and lower molecular weight, e.g., PEO-N3 with Mn = 775 g/mol, were reacted with PHEMA-alkyne (degree of polymerization = 210) at a high molar ratio of linear chains to alkynyl groups in the backbone, the brush copolymers with the highest grafting density were obtained (Y(grafting) = 88%). This result indicates that the average number of SCs was ca. 186 per brush molecule and the average molecular weight of the brush molecules was ca. 190 kg/mol. 相似文献
Methylenecyclobutene (MCB) and 1-methyl-3-methylenecyclobutene (MMCB) were synthesized, characterized, and polymerized by anionic and cationic initiators. Structural analyses of the polymers were carried out by infrared and NMR spectros-copy. The cationic polymerization of MCB appeared to proceed entirely by a 1,5-propagation mechanism to form low molecular weight polymers in low yields. Anionic polymerization of this monomer, on the other hand, proceeded primarily through a 1,2-propagation path, again forming only low molecular weight polymeric products in low yield. In contrast to MCB, the methyl-substituted monomer, MMCB, polymerized readily with cationic initiators to produce unusually high molecular weight polymers in high conversions. On the basis of both infrared and NMR spectroscopic analyses, it was concluded that the polymers also contained essentially only 1,5-addition repeating units. Anionic initiators such as n-BuLi were unable to induce polymerization of this monomer, but polymerization by Ziegler-Natta catalysts proceeded readily to yield polymers virtually identical in structure and molecular weight to those obtained with cationic initiators. 相似文献
Abstract A series of novel polyimides was synthesized from alicyclic diamines and various aromatic dianhydrides by one-step polymerization in m-cresol without a catalyst. The polymerization was conducted for 4 hours with refluxing, which was enough to obtain the polymers with high molecular weight. The inherent viscosities of the resulting polyimides were in the range of 0.30 ~1.29 dL/g. The prepared polyimides showed excellent thermal stabilities and good solubility. All the polymers were readily soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrachloroethane (TCE), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), etc and the glass transition temperatures were observed at 199 to 311°C. UV-visible spectra were obtained to measure the transparency of polymer films. All the polymers showed high transmission above 90% in the wavelength of 400 ~700 nm. 相似文献
Spontaneous copolymerization of cyclic ketene acetal, 2-methylene-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane ( I ) with common electrophilic vinyl monomers, such as methyl α-cyanoacrylate (MCA), acrylonitrile (AN), and methyl methacrylate (MMA) were investigated to further explore zwitterion polymerization method with cyclic ketene acetals. In the reaction of I with MCA and AN, spontaneous copolymerization took place at ambient temperature. The copolymers of I with MCA gave low molecular weight polymers, but copolymers obtained with I and AN were high molecular weight polymers. In the reaction of I and MMA, high molecular weight copolymer was obtained only at temperatures above 80°C. Thus, obtained polymers were not the alternating copolymers and possessed high I content in all the cases. From the above results, macrozwitterionic mechanism was suggested as discussed. 相似文献
Suzuki coupling reaction is widely used in the construction of conjugated polymers; however, there is still no report describing the mechanism and coupling of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone(PQ) building blocks via Suzuki reaction because PQ is sensitive to bases and light. Herein is reported the efficient Suzuki coupling of PQ with 9,10-dialkylfluorene with Na2CO3 as basic species and high molecular weight PQ-Alt-Dialkyl-Fluorene conjugated copolymer obtained in an yield of 42%. Based on the characterization data and well-accepted literature, we proposed a step-by-step mechanistic explanation for the formation of the PQ containing alternating conjugated copolymer. 相似文献
As functional polymers have become more and more used, the need for a general synthesis of addition polymers with functional groups became greatly important. We have achieved the polymerization of ω-alkenoates with coordination initiators of the Ziegler-Natta initiation type using titanium trichloride-based transition metal initiators modified with dialkylaluminum chloride. To accomplish this polymerization required that the ω-alkenoates be precomplexed with dialkylaluminum chloride. High molecular weight homopolymers and copolymers with olefins have been obtained. The polymerization of ω-epoxyalkanoates with coordinative anionic polymerization systems based on triethylaluminum/water/acetylacetone (1.0/0.5/1.0) has also been accomplished. Homo- and copolymers of high molecular weight and of relatively narrow molecular weight distribution have been prepared. All polymers and copolymers of functional olefins and epoxides have been characterized and the study of the reactivity of the functional groups attached via a flexible spacer to the polymer main chain has been started. Special attention was given to the classical cationic copolymerization of trioxane with derivatives of ω-epoxyundecanoate to prepare novel functional polyoxymethylenes of potential commercial interest. 相似文献
Bipolar blue light-emitting polyfluorenes(PFSO-Cz) containing electron-deficient dibenzothiophene-S,S-dioxide(SO) and electron-rich carbazole(Cz) unit were synthesized. All the polymers show a high thermal stability with the decomposition temperatures over 400℃ and higher photoluminescence quantum yields. The highest occupied molecular orbital energy levels(EHOMO's) slightly enhance and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels(ELUMO's) gently depress with the increase of Cz content in the polymers. PL spectra of the polymers display remarkable red shift and broadening with the increase of solvent polarities, indicating significant intramolecular charge transfer(ICT) effect in the polymers. Electroluminescence(EL) spectra of the polymers exhibit a broadening tendency with increasing the content of Cz unit in the polymers. The superior device performances were obtained with the maximum luminous efficiency(LEmax) of 5.2 cd/A, the maximum external quantum efficiency(EQEmax) of 4.8% and the Internationale de l'Eclairage(CIE)(x,y) coordinates of (0.16, 0.17) for PFSO15-Cz10 based on the single-layer device of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/EL/CsF/Al. The results indicate that the efficient bipolar blue light-emitting polyfluorenes are also constructed by Suzuki copolymerization using the monomers in common use. 相似文献
Coordination polymerization of renewable 3‐methylenecyclopentene has been investigated for the first time using rare‐earth metal‐based precursors bearing various bulky ligands. All the prepared complexes catalyze controllable polymerization of 3‐methylenecyclopentene into high molecular weight polymers, of which the NPN‐ and NSN‐tridentate non‐Cp ligated lutetium‐based catalytic systems exhibited extremely high activities up to 11 520 kg/(molLu⋅h) in a dilute toluene solution (3.2 g/100 mL) at room temperature. The resultant polymers have pure 1,4‐regioregularity (>99 %) and tailorable number average molecular weights (1–20×104) with narrow molecular weight distributions (polydispersity index (PDI)=1.45–1.79). DFT simulations were employed to study the polymerization mechanism and stereoregularity control. 相似文献
A series of novel aromatic diamines containing kinked cycloalkane structures between two phenyl rings were synthesized by HCl-catalyzed condensation reaction of excess aniline and corresponding cycloalkanone derivatives. The structures of the diamines were indentified by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The polyimides were synthesized from the obtained diamines with various aromatic dianhydrides by one-step polymerization in m-cresol. The polymerization was conducted for 6∼8 h with refluxing, which was enough to obtain the polymers with high molecular weight. The inherent viscosities of the resulting polyimides were in the range of 0.37∼1.66 dl/g. All polymers were readily soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrachloroethane, dimethylacetamide, etc. and the glass transition temperatures were observed at 290 to 372°C. UV-visible spectra were obtained to measure the transparency of polymer films. Most of the polymers showed high transmission above 90 % in the wavelength of 450 ∼ 600 nm. 相似文献
