The preparation and characterization of novel cocylic(arylene disulfide) oligomers

A series of homo‐ and cocyclic(arylene disulfide) oligomers were synthesized under high dilution conditions by the catalytic oxidation of arylenedithiols with oxygen in the presence of a copper‐amine catalyst in DMAc. The aryl groups contained moieties such as sulfone, ether, and ketone. The free radical ring‐opening polymerization of these cyclic(arylene disulfide) oligomers led to the formation of linear poly(thio arylene)s. The homo‐ and cocyclic(arylene disulfide) oligomers were characterized by gradient high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), get permeation chromatography (GPC), ¹H‐NMR, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) methods. These cocyclic(arylene disulfide) oligomers except those containing sulfone moiety had lower melt flow temperature as low as 140 °C and therefore could readily undergo free radical ring‐opening polymerization under mild conditions. The glass transition temperatures of these cocyclics ranged from 72.3 to 190.0 °C, while the glass transition temperatures of the polydisulfides derived from these cocyclics ranged from 78.4 to 194.5 °C. In this article, a new method of preparing arylene dithiols 4,4′‐oxybis(benzenethiol) and diphenylmethane‐4,4′‐dithiol is reported. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Synthesis of New Spiropyrans With a Polyaromatic or Heteroaromatic Pendant and Their Photochromic Bedhaviors

A series of spiropyrans with a polyaromatic or heteroaromatic pendant was synthesized conveniently.Their photochromic behaviors were investigated with the aid of absorption spectral measurements.The results indicated that the compounds with the same parent spiropyran but different aromatic pendant show significantly different photochromic properties.This may be due to the π-π orbital interaction between the polyaromatic pendant and the open photomerocyanine form of spiropyran.The results obtained are very useful in the molecule design area.     

Study on the hydrogen donating abilities of benzofuranones as chain-breaking antioxidants using laser flash photolysis technique

The hydrogen donation kinetics of four 3-aryl-benzofuranones with different chemical structures toward tert-butoxyl radicals were studied using laser flash photolysis (LFP) technique. The rate constants of hydrogen reactions, which can be used to evaluate the hydrogen donating abilities of 3-aryl-benzofuranones toward radicals, were obtained. The results showed that the position of substituted methyl group has a very important effect on the hydrogen donating ability of benzofuranone toward tert-butoxyl radicals, i.e. if the methyl group is on 2′-position, the hydrogen donation of 3-aryl-benzofuranone toward tert-butoxyl radicals will be prevented and the hydrogen donating ability will be weakened.

Novel Pb(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) coordination polymers constructed from ferrocenyl-substituted carboxylate and bipyridine-based ligands

Treatment of two kinds of ferrocenyl-substituted carboxylate ligands (3-ferrocenyl-2-crotonic acid, HOOC-CH=(CH(3))CFc (Fc=(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))Fe(eta(5)-C(5)H(4))) or O-ferrocecarbonyl benzoic acid, o-HOOCC(6)H(4)COFc with Pb(OAc)(2).3H(2)O, Zn(OAc)(2).2H(2)O, or Cd(OAc)(2).2H(2)O) resulted in four novel ferrocene-containing coordination polymers [[Pb(mu(2)-eta(2)-OOCCH=(CH(3))CFc)(2)].MeOH](n) (1), [[Zn(o-OOCC(6)H(4)COFc)(2)(4,4'-bipy)(H(2)O)(2)].2MeOH.2H(2)O](n) (4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine) (2), [[Cd(o-OOCC(6)H(4)COFc)(2)(bpe)(MeOH)(2)].2H(2)O](n) (bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethene) (3), and [Pb(o-OOCC(6)H(4)COFc)(eta(2)-o-OOCC(6)H(4)COFc)(bpe)](n)() (4). Their crystal structures have been characterized by single X-ray determinations. In polymer 1, Pb(II) ions are bridged by tridentate FcC(CH(3))=CHCOO(-) anions, forming an infinite chain [Pb(mu(2)-eta(2)-OOC=CH(CH(3))CFc)(2)](n). In polymers 2-4, there are three kinds of components, metal ions, o-FcCOC(6)H(4)COO(-) units, and organic bridging ligands. The bipyridine-based ligands connect metal ions leading to a one-dimensional chain with o-FcCOC(6)H(4)COO(-) units acting as monodentate or chelate ligands in the side chain. Such coordination polymers containing ferrocenyl-substituted carboxylate and bipyridine-based ligands are very rare. The solution-state differential pulse voltammetries of polymers 1-4 were determined. The results indicate that the half-wave potential of the ferrocenyl moieties is influenced by the Pb(II) ions in polymer 1 and strongly influenced by Zn(II), Cd(II), or Pb(II) ions in polymers 2-4. The thermal properties of the four polymers were also investigated.     

Thermochemistry of the ternary solid complex Gd(C5H8NS2)3(C12H8N2)

The novel ternary solid complex Gd(C₅H₈NS₂)₃(C₁₂H₈N₂) has been obtained from the reaction of hydrous gadolinium chloride, ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC), and 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen · H₂O) in absolute ethanol. The complex was described by an elemental analysis, TG-DTG, and an IR spectrum. The enthalpy change of the complex formation reaction from a solution of the reagents, Δ_r H _m ^ϑ (sol), and the molar heat capacity of the complex, c _m , were determined as being − 15.174 ± 0.053 kJ/mol and 72.377 ± 0.636 J/(mol K) at 298.15 K by using an RD496-III heat conduction microcalorimeter. The enthalpy change of a complex formation from the reaction of the reagents in a solid phase, Δ_r H _m ^ϑ (s), was calculated as being 52.703 ± 0.304 kJ/mol on the basis of an appropriate thermochemical cycle and other auxiliary thermodynamic data. The thermodynamics of the formation reaction of the complex was investigated by the reaction in solution. Fundamental parameters, the activation enthalpy (ΔH _≠ ^ϑ ), the activation entropy (ΔS _≠ ^ϑ ), the activation free energy (ΔG _≠ ^ϑ ), the apparent reaction rate constant (k), the apparent activation energy (E), the preexponential constant (A), and the reaction order (n), were obtained by the combination of the thermochemical data of the reaction and kinetic equations, with the data of thermokinetic experiments. The constant-volume combustion energy of the complex, Δ_c U, was determined as being −17588.79 ± 8.62 kJ/mol by an RBC-II type rotatingbomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. Its standard enthalpy of combustion, Δ_c H _m ^ϑ , and standard enthalpy of formation, Δ_f H _m ^ϑ , were calculated to be −17604.28 ± 8.62 and −282.43 ± 9.58 kJ/mol, respectively.
