Continuous solution copolymerization of ethylene and octene-1 with constrained geometry metallocene catalyst

The solution copolymerization of ethylene (1) with octene-1 (2) in Isopar E using constrained geometry catalyst system, [C₅Me₄(SiMe₂N^tBu)]TiMe₂ (CGC-Ti)/tris(pentafluorophenyl)boron (TPFPB)/modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO), has been carried out in a high-temperature, high-pressure continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) at 140°C, 500 psig and with a mean residence time of 4 min. A series of copolymer samples with octene-1 content up to 0.337 mole fraction were synthesized and characterized. The estimated reactivity ratios were r₁ = 7.90 and r₂ = 0.099. The CGC-Ti showed a higher ability to incorporate high α-olefins than other metallocene catalysts investigated in the literature due to its open structure. The presence of octene-1 lowered the catalyst activity, particularly at octene-1 levels higher than 0.45 mole fraction. Octene-1 was also found to reduce the molecular weight of polymer and broaden the molecular weight distributions. The triad distributions were measured by ¹³C-NMR. A minor penultimate effect was observed. The penultimate octene-1 unit appeared to slow down monomer insertion rates. A comparison of the propagation rate of octene-1 with the incorporation rate of macromonomer in the homopolymerization of ethylene suggests that the addition of macromonomer is effectively instantaneous after it is generated with diffusion to or from the active center reaction volume playing a minor role. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Ring-Opening Polymerization of Cyclic Monomers with Aluminum Triflate

A green method for the controlled synthesis of aliphatic polymers is presented. The ring-opening polymerizations of cyclic monomers including several lactones, such as caprolactone (CL) or pentadecalactone (PDL), and cyclic anhydride monomers, such as succinic anhydride (SUC) and tetrahydrofuran (THF), catalyzed by a series of metal triflates (trifluoromethanesulfonate) were studied. Aluminum triflate was found to be an advantageous candidate to catalyze the ring-opening polymerization of cyclic monomers. The details of the ring-opening polymerization of CL catalyzed by aluminum triflate were studied. The maximum number average molecular weight (M_n), polydispersity (M_w/M_n) and yield of the obtained poly(-caprolactone) (PCL) at 60 °C for 6 hours were 18,400, 1.94 and 89 wt%, respectively. Those of poly(pentadecalactone) (PPDL) at 100 °C for 6 hours were 12,400, 2.24 and 49 wt%, respectively. The M_n, M_w/M_n and yield of the obtained poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) from SUC and THF at 100 °C for 48 hours were 4,900, 2.03 and 84 wt%, respectively. Furthermore, the mechanism of the polymerization was discussed based on the relationship between the conversion of CL and time. The molecular weight buildup of PCL was linear with a conversion in 50 min before the conversion reached 100 % and with M_w/M_n stabilized at about 1.5. The M_w/M_n of PCL then gradually increased. From these data, a living polymerization with a small transesterification was suggested from the PCL polymerization by aluminum triflate.     

Continuous Controlled Radical Polymerization of Methyl Acrylate in a Copper Tubular Reactor

The use of copper tubing as both the reactor and as a catalyst source is demonstrated for continuous controlled radical polymerization of methyl acrylate at ambient temperature and at low solvent content of 30%. The high surface area provided by the copper walls mediates the reaction via the single electron transfer–living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) mechanism. The polymerizations proceeded quickly, reaching 67% conversion at a residence time of 16 min. Ligand concentration could also be reduced without a sharp drop in polymerization rate, demonstrating the potential for decreased raw material and post‐process purification costs. Chain extension experiments conducted using synthesized polymer showed high livingness. The combination of living polymer produced at high polymerization rates at ambient temperature and low volatile organic solvent content demonstrate the potential of a copper reactor for scale up of SET‐LRP.

     

Homopolymerization and Copolymerization of Adipic Anhydride with ε-Caprolactone Catalyzed by Rare Earth Trisphenolate

The ring-opening polymerization of adipic anhydride and the ring-opening copolymerization of adipic anhydride with ε-caprolactone catalyzed by single component rare earth trisphenolate have been reported.

Microwave-assisted Polymerization of ε-Caprolactone with Maleic Acid as Initiator and Drug Release Behavior of Ibuprofen-Poly(ε-caprolaetone) System

Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) with weight-average molar mass over 10000 g/mol was synthesized by microwave-assisted ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactonc (ε-CL) with malcic acid (MA) as initiator (2.45 GHz, 360 W, 85 min). Ibuprofen-PCL controlled release system was prepared directly by the ROP of ε-CL in its mixture with ibuprofen. The release of ibuprofen from the system was sustained and steady.     

Ring-Opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone by rare earth coordination catalysts. I. Characteristics,kinetics, and mechanism of ε-caprolactone polymerization with nd(acac)3.3H2O-ALET3 system

Ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone has been carried out by using rare earth coordination catalysts for the first time. The rare earth compounds, RE(acac)₃.3H₂O, Nd(P₂₀₄)₃, Nd(P₅₀₇)₃, Nd(naph)₃, Nd(BA)₃.2H₂O, etc. (where RE = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Lu, Y; acac = acetylacetone; BA = benzoylacetone), combined with trialkyl aluminum, greatly increased the degree of conversion and the molecular weight of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL). The influence of reaction conditions on the polymerization of ε-caprolactone catalyzed by the Nd (acac)₃.3H₂O-AlEt₃ system has been examined in detail. The kinetics indicates that the polymerization rate has the first-order in monomer and a half-order in catalyst. The overall activation energy of the ring-opening polymerization amounts to 59.4 kJ/mol. By IR and UV-Vis spectra, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR data, it is assumed that the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone catalyzed by the Nd(acac)₃.3H₂O-AlEt₃ system proceeds via complexation of monomer to catalyst, acyl-oxygen cleavage insertion propagation mechanism. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Experimental and computational studies of ring‐opening polymerization of ethylene brassylate macrolactone and copolymerization with ε‐caprolactone and TBD‐guanidine organic catalyst

The ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of ethylene brassylate, catalyzed by the cyclic guanidine 1,5,7‐triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec‐5‐ene (TBD) is reported. Several experimental parameters were evaluated for bulk ROP process and polyesters, resulting in molecular weights between 3 and 15 kg mol^?1. End‐group analysis by ¹H nuclear magnetic resonnance (NMR) and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight computational studies supports the dual behavior of TBD, which can act as both a catalyst and initiator of the polymerization process. Under optimum conditions, semicrystalline poly(ethylene brassylate‐co‐ε‐caprolactone) random copolymers were synthesized. Depending on the comonomer content, our results showed a range of melting temperatures between 39 and 69 °C. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Synthetic Approaches to Combine the Versatility of the Thiol Chemistry with the Degradability of Aliphatic Polyesters

Abstract

Thiol chemistry is an efficient tool to manipulate the microstructure of aliphatic polyesters and open the way to different applications. Synthetic strategies that aim to synthesize thiol-functionalized aliphatic polyesters are reviewed herein. The introduction of thiol-editable groups on aliphatic polyesters can occur both at chain ends and along the chains, enabling diverse modifications of the polymeric chains and imparting new properties and functions. The use of thiol chemistry for postpolymerization modification of this class of polymers and the (co)polymerizations of monomers bearing thiol groups has also been described herein.     

Recent Advances in Metal-Mediated Stereoselective Ring-Opening Polymerization of Functional Cyclic Esters towards Well-Defined Poly(hydroxy acid)s: From Stereoselectivity to Sequence-Control

Poly(hydroxy acid)s are a family of biocompatible and (bio)degradable polyesters with various outcomes in different domains of application. To date, poly(hydroxy acid)s are best prepared by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of the corresponding cyclic esters. Using racemic chiral monomers featuring side-chain groups enables to access, providing a stereoselective catalyst/initiator system is implemented, stereoregular functional polymers, thereby improving their physico–chemical properties, and ultimately, widening their range of uses. Here, we highlight a few important advances in metal-mediated stereoselective ROP of cyclic esters towards the synthesis of (functional) stereoregular poly(hydroxy acid)s that have recently been disclosed, emphasizing on (functional) β- and γ-lactones, diolide and O-carboxyanhydride (OCA) monomers and yttrium-based catalysis. Fine-tuning of the substituents flanked on the catalyst ligand enables reaching poly(hydroxy acid)s with syndiotactic and also isotactic microstructures. The stereocontrol mechanisms at work and their probable origin, relying on steric but also electronic factors imparted in particular by the ligand substituents, are discussed. Taking advantage of such stereoselective ROPs, original copoly(hydroxy acid)s with gradient or alternated patterns then become accessible from the use of mixtures of chemically different, oppositely configured enantiopure monomers.     

Ring opening during the cationic polymerization of 2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane: Cyclic ketene acetal initiation with sulfuric acid supported on carbon

The stable cyclic ketene acetal, 2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane, 7, has been polymerized cationically in pentane, CH₂Cl₂ and THF at 25°C to form a polymer which is composed of both ring-opened (40–50%) and ring-retained (50–60%) structures. Initiation was catalyzed by using H₂SO₄-supported on activated carbon black. This unique outcome differs significantly from the cationic polymerization of several other five- and six-membered ring cyclic ketene acetals which gave 100% 1,2-vinylpolymerization under these conditions. As the polymerization temperature increased in cationic polymerization of 7 the ring-opened content increased and the molecular weight of the polymers decreased in such solvents as cyclohexane, 1,2-dichloroethane, dimethoxyethane, and bis-(2-methoxyethyl) ether. The mechanism of this polymerization is discussed. This research also illustrated the ability to initiate the cationic polymerization of cyclic ketene acetals by acidified carbon black while avoiding subsequent polymer decomposition. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Polyethylene with Reverse Co‐monomer Incorporation: From an Industrial Serendipitous Discovery to Fundamental Understanding

A triethylaluminium(TEAl)‐modified Phillips ethylene polymerisation Cr/Ti/SiO₂ catalyst has been developed with two distinct active regions positioned respectively in the inner core and outer shell of the catalyst particle. DRIFTS, EPR, UV‐Vis‐NIR DRS, STXM, SEM‐EDX and GPC‐IR studies revealed that the catalyst produces simultaneously two different polymers, i.e., low molecular weight linear‐chain polyethylene in the Ti‐abundant catalyst particle shell and high molecular weight short‐chain branched polyethylene in the Ti‐scarce catalyst particle core. Co‐monomers for the short‐chain branched polymer were generated in situ within the TEAl‐impregnated confined space of the Ti‐scarce catalyst particle core in close proximity to the active sites that produced the high molecular weight polymer. These results demonstrate that the catalyst particle architecture directly affects polymer composition, offering the perspective of making high‐performance polyethylene from a single reactor system using this modified Phillips catalyst.

Efficient Conversion of Biomass to Formic Acid Coupled with Low Energy Consumption Hydrogen Production from Water Electrolysis

The development of a new electrolytic water hydrogen production coupling system is the key to realize efficient and low-cost hydrogen production and promote its practical application. Herein, a green and efficient electrocatalytic biomass to formic acid (FA) coupled hydrogen production system has been developed. In such a system, carbohydrates such as glucose are oxidized to FA using polyoxometalates (POMs) as the redox anolyte, while H₂ is evolved continuously at the cathode. Among them, the yield of glucose to FA is as high as 62.5 %, and FA is the only liquid product. Furthermore, the system requires only 1.22 V to drive a current density of 50 mA cm⁻², and the Faraday efficiency of hydrogen production is close to 100 %. Its electrical consumption is only 2.9 kWh Nm⁻³ (H₂), which is only 69 % of that of traditional electrolytic water. This work opens up a promising direction for low-cost hydrogen production coupled with efficient biomass conversion.     

Catalytic Chemistry of Supported Heteropolyacids and Their Applications as Solid Acids to Industrial Processes

This article reviews recent research and development of supported heteropolyacid (HPA) catalysts; focusing on the acidic and catalytic properties. First the basic knowledge of solid HPAs is provided briefly to facilitate understanding of heterogeneous catalysis of HPAs. Secondly, the structure as well as the physical and chemical properties of supported HPA catalysts is described. Especially the layer structure of HPA dispersed on the surface of SiO₂ and the changes in the surface acidity with the loading level of HPA are discussed. For this purpose, temperature programmed desorption of benzonitrile devised by Okuhara and Kamiya’s group is useful. This method is capable to assess the surface acidity of the supported HPA, which controls the catalytic activity for the reactions proceeding by surface-type catalysis. Then, two new industrial processes developed by Showa Denko K. K. are described; (i) production of ethyl acetate from ethylene and acetic acid and (ii) oxidation of ethylene to acetic acid. Supported HPA catalysts are utilized for both processes, which were recently much improved by finely controlling the catalysts and reaction conditions.
