The new SET‐LRP (using Cu(0) powder for organic synthesis) was successfully used to produce well‐defined linear and star homo‐ and diblock‐copolymers of PMA, PSA, and P(MA‐b‐GA)n (where n = 1 or 4). The kinetic data showed that all SET‐LRP were first order and reached high conversions in a short period of time. The other advantage of using such a system is that the copper can easily be removed through filtration, allowing the production of highly pure polymer. The molecular weight distributions were well controlled with polydispersity indexes below 1.1 and the number‐average molecular weight close to theory, especially upon the addition of Cu(II)Br2/Me6‐TREN complex. The linear and star block copolymers were then hydrolyzed to produce the biocompatible amphiphilic P(MA‐b‐GA)n, where the glycerol side‐groups make the outer block hydrophilic. These blocks were micellized into water and found to have a Rg/RH equal to 0.8 and 1.59 for the liner and star blocks, respectively. This together with the TEM's supported that the linear blocks formed the classical core‐shell micelles, where as, the star blocks formed vesicles. We found direct support for the vesicle structure from a TEM where one vesicle squashed a second vesicle consistent with a hollow structure. Such vesicle structures have potential applications as delivery nanoscaled devices for drugs and other important biomolecules. © 2008 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 N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) from silicon wafer modified with an initiator layer composed of 2‐bromopropionyl bromide (2‐BPB) fragments is described. The amount of Cu(0) generated in situ by the disproportination of Cu(I) to Cu(0) and Cu(II) in the presence of 2,2′‐bipyridine (2,2′‐bpy) ligand and N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent at 90 °C is dependent on the ratio of [CuBr]/[CuBr2]. By proper selection of the [CuBr]/[CuBr2] ratio, well‐controlled SET‐LRP polymerization of NIPAM was observed such that the thickness of the layer consisting of chains grown from the surface increased linearly with the molecular weight of chains polymerized in solution in identical. In addition, the calculation of grafting parameters, including surface coverage, σ (mg/m2); grafting density, Σ (chain/nm2); and average distance between grafting sites, D (nm), from the number‐average molecular weight, M n (g/mol), and ellipsometric thickness, h (nm), values indicated the synthesis of densely grafted poly(NIPAM) films and allowed us to predict a “brush‐like” conformation. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.

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. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011 相似文献

The Cu0‐mediated single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization of acrylamide and N,N‐dimethyl‐N‐methacryloyloxyethyl‐N‐sulfobutyl ammonium in aqueous at 25 °C using 2‐chloropropionamide as initiator with Cu0 powder/tris‐(2‐dimethylamino ethyl)amine (Me6‐TREN) as catalyst system is studied. The results showed the characteristic of the “living” polymerization that were the Mn of polymers increased linearly with monomer conversion and the ln([M]0/[M]) increased linearly with time too, meanwhile the narrow molecular of weight distributions were found at most cases. Because of the high rate constant of propagation and bimolecular termination of the acrylamide, the external addition of CuCl2 is required to mediate deactivation the early stage of polymerization. In addition, the disproportionation constant of CuIX/L in H2O is higher than in other solvents and the coordination of amino group and CuII takes place easily, so the isopropanol or N,N‐dimethylformamide is added to control the polymerization. High conversions were achieved within short time and the polymers prepared showed good antipolyelectrolyte properties in inorganic salts solutions. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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.

High performance polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was prepared with Mg powder as both reducing agent (RA) and supplemental activator (SA) by single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (RASA SET‐LRP). First‐order kinetics of polymerization with respect to monomer concentration, linear increase of molecular weight, and narrow polydispersity with monomer conversion, and the obtained high isotacticity PAN indicate that RASA SET‐LRP in the presence of Mg powder could simultaneously control molecular weight and tacticity of PAN. compared with that obtained with ascorbic acid (VC) as RA, an obvious increase in isotacticity of PAN was observed. the block copolymer pan‐b‐pAN with molecular weight at 112,460, polydispersity at 1.33, and isotacticity at 0.314 was successfully prepared. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of initial ligand concentration on the apparent rate constant of propagation of single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) of MA in DMSO at 25 °C was examined using various lengths of Cu(0) wire as catalyst. It was determined that unlike other parameters such as initiator concentration, solvent concentration, and deactivator concentration, no simple external rate‐order for the ligand concentration could be determined. Rather, the response of the rate of SET‐LRP to initial ligand concentration is complex and is likely determined by a competition of ligand‐dependent extent of disproportionation as well as the role of ligand concentration in the surface mediated activation process. Results suggest that a minimum concentration of ligand is needed to achieve both acceptable reaction rate and reaction control, and therefore, ligand concentration must be considered in designing experimental conditions for SET‐LRP. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The development of Cu(0)/TREN/CuBr2‐catalyzed SET‐LRP of VC initiated with CHBr3 in DMSO at 25 °C is reported. The use of CuBr2 additive allows for the first LRP of low molecular weight VC (target DP = 100), as well as lower Cu powder loading levels, improved Ieff and control in the synthesis of higher molecular VC, targeted degree of polymerization = 350, 700, 1,000, 1,400. 1H NMR and HSQC confirm the bifunctionality of CHBr3 as an initiator and suggest that deleterious side‐reactions such as the formation of allylic chlorides occur primarily at the onset of the reaction. © 2009 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.

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. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011 相似文献

In this study, single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization (SET–LRP) of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) in the presence of 2‐mercaptoethylamine chain transfer agent (CTA) was carried out by Cu(0) generated in situ from the disproportionation of CuBr/2,2′‐bipyridine (2,2′‐bpy) in N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) at 90 °C. Analysis of polymerization kinetics in the presence of CTA showed that the premature termination of growing polymer chains leads to retardation. The apparent rate constant of polymerization (k) decreased from 4.49 × 10?4 to 2.59 × 10?4 min?1 with increasing CTA concentration. The initiator efficiency (Ieff) and the chain transfer constant (Cs) were found to be 0.524 and 0.286, respectively. The molecular weights of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) [poly(NIPAM)] produced were significantly higher than the predicted values, and the polydispersities were less than 1.22. © 2011 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 single electron transfer‐living radical polymerization of methyl acrylate (MA) initiated by bis(2‐bromopropionyl)ethane (BPE) in dimethyl sulfoxide was carried out to 100% monomer conversion and complete absence of bimolecular termination under the following reaction conditions: [MA]/[BPE]/[Me6‐TREN]/[CuBr2] = 60/1/0.21/0.01 and [MA]/[BPE]/[TREN]/[CuBr2] = 60/1/0.25/0.05. These polymerizations were mediated by 0.5 cm of hydrazine‐activated Cu(0) wire of 20 gauge (0.812 cm in diameter), corresponding to a surface area of 0.14 cm2 of Cu(0) per 3 mL reaction volume (2/1 v/v monomer/solvent). A higher extent of bimolecular termination (5–13%) was observed at complete conversion when longer lengths of Cu(0) wire were used. In the absence of CuBr2 the activated Cu(0) wire/Me6‐TREN catalyst in dimethyl sulfoxide also allowed the synthesis of perfectly bifunctional and monofunctional PMAs at complete conversion. This was also demonstrated by the quantitative reinitiation experiments from the chain(s) end(s) of these macroinitiators. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012 相似文献

The polymerisation of N‐acryloylmorpholine in water is reported utilising Cu(0)‐mediated living radical polymerisation (SET‐LRP). The inherent instability of [CuI(Me6‐Tren)Br] in aqueous solution is exploited via rapid disproportionation to prepare Cu(0) particles and [CuII(Me6‐Tren)Br2] in situ prior to addition of monomer and initiator. Quantitative conversion is attained within 30 min for various degrees of polymerisation (DPn = 20–640) with SEC showing symmetrical narrow molecular weight distributions (Đ < 1.18) in all cases. Optimised conditions are subsequently applied for the preparation of a diblock copolymer poly(NIPAm)‐b‐(N‐acryloylmorpholine), illustrating the versatility of this approach.

Cu(I)Br/Me6‐TREN species are unstable and disproportionate into metallic Cu(0) and Cu(II)Br2/Me6‐TREN in DMSO, whereas in toluene are stable and do not undergo disproportionation, at least at 25 °C. To estimate the role of the disproportionating solvent in single electron‐transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) a comparative analysis of Cu(0)/Me6‐TREN‐catalyzed polymerization of MA initiated with methyl 2‐bromopropionate at 25 °C was performed in DMSO and toluene. A combination of kinetic experiments and chain end analysis by 500‐MHz 1H NMR spectroscopy was used to demonstrate that disproportionation represents the crucial requirement for a successful SET‐LRP of MA at 25 °C. In DMSO a perfect SET‐LRP occurs and yields close to 100% conversion in 45 min. A first order polymerization in growing species up to 100% conversion and a PMA with perfectly functional chain ends are obtained. However, in toluene within 17 h only about 60% conversion is obtained, the polymerization does not show first order in growing species and therefore is not a living polymerization. Moreover, at 60% conversion the resulting PMA has only 80% active chain ends. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 6880–6895, 2008 相似文献

The single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) method in the presence of chain transfer agent was used to synthesize poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) [poly(NIPAM)] with a low molecular weight and a low polydispersity index. This was achieved using Cu(I)/2,2′‐bipyridine as the catalyst, 2‐bromopropionyl bromide as the initiator, 2‐mercaptoethanol as the chain transfer agent (TH), and N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) as the solvent at 90 °C. The copper nanoparticles with diameters of 16 ± 3 nm were obtained in situ by the disproportionation of Cu(I) to Cu(0) and Cu(II) species in DMF at 22 °C for 24 h. The molecular weights of poly(NIPAM) produced were significantly higher than the theoretical values, and the polydispersities were less than 1.18. The chain transfer constant (Ctr) was found to be 0.051. Although the kinetic analysis of SET‐LRP in the presence of TH corroborated the characteristics of controlled/living polymerization with pseudo‐first‐order kinetic behavior, the polymerization also exhibited a retardation period (k > ktr). The influence of molecular weight on lower critical solution temperature (LCST) was investigated by refractometry. Our experimental results explicitly elucidate that the LCST values increase slightly with decreasing molecular weight. Reversibility of solubility and collapse in response to temperature well correlated with increased molecular weight of poly(NIPAM). © 2011 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.
