Synthesis of poly(isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate) and its facile side‐chain functionalization into hydroxy‐polyurethanes

4‐Isopropenyl phenol ( 4‐IPP ) is a versatile dual functional intermediate that can be prepared readily from bisphenol‐A ( BPA ). Through etherification with epichlorohydrin to the phenolic group of 4‐IPP , it can be converted into 4‐isopropenyl phenyl glycidyl ether ( IPGE ). On further reaction with carbon dioxide in the presence of tetra‐n‐butyl ammonium bromide ( TBAB ) as the catalyst, IPGE was transformed into 4‐isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate ( IPPC ) in 90% yield. Cationic polymerization of IPPC with strong acid such as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or boron trifluoride diethyl etherate as the catalyst at ?40 °C gave a linear poly(isopropenylphenoxy propylene carbonate), poly( IPPC ), with multicyclic carbonate groups substituted uniformly at the side‐chains of the polymer. The cyclic carbonate groups of poly( IPPC ) were further reacted with different aliphatic amines and diamines resulting in formation of polymers with hydroxy‐polyurethane on side‐chains. Syntheses, characterizations of poly( IPPC ) and its conversion into hydroxy‐polyurethane crosslinked polymers were presented. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Aerosol‐Assisted Synthesis of Porous TiNxOy@C Nanocomposites

Porous TiN_xO_y‐based particles were synthesized by an aerosol spray process. At first, the starting sol solution containing the metal precursor and the nitrogen source is sprayed to form an aerosol that is subsequently pyrolysed at different temperatures. The obtained dried particles are an amorphous coordination “polymer” rich in carbon and nitrogen. These “glassy” particles are finally thermally treated at 800 °C, promoting the crystallization of the particles and the release of a major part of the carbon. As the particles keep their original shape, carbon loss and density increase during the crystallization step and lead to the development of an accessible pore structure. The process was analyzed and extended to the synthesis of other metal nitrides, such as VN and W₂N, thereby showing its general validity for the production of functional nanocrystalline nitride ceramics with high porosity still occupying a relatively small volume, and otherwise not easily accessible.

Polar Constituents from Sageretia Thea Leaf Characterized by HPLC‐SPE‐NMR Assisted Approaches

Nine glycosides ( 1–9 ) were characterized from the n‐butanol‐soluble fraction of the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Sageretia thea by the general approach. Among these, Compounds 6 and 7 were identified as a mixture. Application of HPLC‐SPE‐NMR in two selected fractions led to the separation of this mixture and the characterization of three additional minors ( 10–12 ). Among these, 7‐O‐methylmyricetin 3‐O‐α‐l ‐arabinofuranoside ( 8 ) is a new natural product and eight compounds, i.e. glucofragulin A ( 1 ), quercetin‐3‐O‐α‐l ‐arabinopyranoside ( 5 ), 3‐O‐β‐d ‐galactopyranoside ( 6 ), 3‐O‐β‐d ‐glucopyranoside ( 7 ), and 3‐O‐α‐l ‐arabinofuranoside ( 11 ), myricetin‐3‐O‐α‐l ‐arabinofuranoside ( 9 ) and 3‐O‐β‐d‐glucopyranoside ( 10 ), and quercetrin ( 12 ), are found for the first time from the title plant.

Potentiometric,spectrophotometric, and AM1d studies of the equilibria between silver(I) ion and monoaza-crown ethers with anthraquinone in various solvents

Complex formation and stability constants between silver(I) and monoaza-12-crown, monoaza-15-crown, and monoaza-18-crown ethers with anthraquinone were determined in acetonitrile, methanol, and propylene carbonate by potentiometric and UV-spectrophotometric methods. Complexes of 1?:?1 and 1?:?2 metal-to-ligand stoichiometry were formed. The solvent composition and the size of the macrocyclic ring affect the stability constants of the complexes. The energetically most favorable structures of the 1?:?1 metal-to-ligand complexes were calculated and visualized by the AM1d method at a semiempirical level of theory.     

Living Polymerization via Anionic Initiation for the Synthesis of Well‐Defined PPV Materials

The anionic polymerization of PPV via the sulfinyl precursor route is further investigated. When LHMDS is employed as the base to form the actively propagating quinodimethane system and THF as the solvent, anionic polymerizations can be observed. With the use of tert‐ butyl‐substituted anionic initiators, specific functional groups can be built in the polymer chain and the chain length can be efficiently controlled, which is demonstrated here for the first time. With introduction of branched side chains on the aromatic core, soluble conjugated PPV material can be obtained with molecular weights in the range of 5000–16 000 g mol⁻¹.
