The synthesis and physical properties of the first fluorinated dialkyl phosphoramidates of structure (RCH 2 O) 2 P(O)NHCH 2 R F , where R = CH 3 , CF 3 or CCl 3 and R F = CF 3 or C 2 F 5 , are described. They were obtained by treatment of the respective dialkyl phosphorochloridates with trifluoroethylamine or pentafluoropropylamine in ether in the presence of triethylamine.     

Crystallization Behavior of the System Poly(L-lactic Acid) and Pentaerythrityl Tetrabromide

Differential scanning calorimetry has been used to study the thermal crystallization of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and pentaerythrityl tetrabromide mixtures at different compositions. The melting temperature-composition phase diagram of the system reveals that PLLA forms a simple eutectic with pentaerythrityl tetrabromide, with a eutectic composition of 46% (w/w) of PLLA and a eutectic temperature of 422 K. Investigation of the microstructures obtained after removal of the diluent from the eutectic using scanning electron microscopy shows that the simultaneous crystallization of PLLA and the diluent proceeded in such a way that the diluent rods are the leading phases.     

Synthesis of a Calix[4]crown‐6 Cone Conformer‐Based Oligomer and its Metal Cation Extraction Abilities

A new calixcrown‐6 oligomer 5 was synthesized by reacting a 1,3‐distal di‐amino derivative of cone p‐tert‐butylcalix[4]crown‐6 with malonyl dichloride. Extraction studies with precursor monomers 2 and 3 and oligomer 5 showed differences in their metal cation extraction behavior and selectivity. Precursors monomers 2 and 3 were selective for Hg²⁺; whereas, oligomer 5 showed high affinity towards both alkali (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, and Cs⁺) and heavy metal cations (Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺ and Pb²⁺).     

New Fluorinated Poly(imide siloxane) Random and Block Copolymers with Variation of Siloxane Loading

Several new random and block copoly(imide siloxane)s have been prepared by the solution polycondensation of commercially available 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA) and amino-propyl terminated polydimethylsiloxane (APPS) with 4,4′-(hexafluoro-isopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA). The siloxane loading was kept to 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt% in the copolymers. The random copolymers were prepared by a one pot solution imidization technique, and two pot solution imidization technique was adopted for the synthesis of the block copolymers. The diamine ODA and the dianhydride 6FDA composed the hard block segment, while APPS and 6FDA composed the soft block segment. The hard block length was kept constant while the soft block lengths were varied by varying the siloxane loading. Accordingly, block copoly(imide siloxane)s were prepared on increasing the soft block lengths (DP) from 3 to 6, 10, 18 and 36 for fixed hard block length of 22. The resulting polymers have been well characterized by IR, NMR and GPC techniques. Thermal and mechanical properties of the random and block copolymers were compared with the already reported homopolyimide without siloxane moiety.     

Synthesis of Highly Functionalized Fluorinated Porphyrins

Highly functionalized fluorinated porphyrins were synthesized by a convergent strategy. Nucleophilic substitution using fluorinated branched unit and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin afforded highly functionalized fluorinated porphyrin 8 containing 24 fluorinated chains in the peripheral region.     

Synthesis, Characterization and Properties of Novel Star-Shaped π-Conjugated Oligomers with Triphenylamine Core

Four new star‐shaped π‐conjugated oligomers ( TPA‐CZ3 , TPA‐TPA3 , TPA‐PTZ3 and TPA‐BT3 ) with triphenylamine as a core and different electron‐donating ability groups, carbazole, triphenylamine, phenothiazine and bithiophene, as peripheral units have been designed and synthesized via the Heck reaction. These oligomers show good solubility in common organic solvents. Their photophysical, electrochemical, electronic structure and charge transfer properties between these star‐shaped π‐conjugated oligomers and N,N′‐bis(1‐ethylpropyl)‐3,4:9,10‐perylene bis(tetracarboxyl diimide) (EP‐PDI) have been investigated by UV‐vis absorption spectra, photoluminescence (PL) spectra, cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurement, theoretical calculations and fluorescence quenching. The results show that the absorptions and fluorescences of TPA‐CZ3 , TPA‐TPA3 and TPA‐PTZ3 are red shifted with the electron‐donating ability of the peripheral unit increasing from carbazole to triphenylamine and phenothiazine. In addition, although the bithiophene group has a weaker electron‐donating ability than carbazole, triphenylamine and phenothiazine, the absorption and fluorescence of TPA‐BT3 have a red shift than those of TPA‐CZ3 , TPA‐TPA3 and TPA‐PTZ3 because TPA‐BT3 has a longer conjugation length than TPA‐CZ3 , TPA‐TPA3 and TPA‐PTZ3 . The triphenylamine core and the peripheral units can constitute a large conjugated structure. The fluorescence quenching properties indicate that efficient charge transfer can happen between the star‐shaped oligomers and EP‐PDI.     

CONVENIENT SYNTHETIC METHODS FOR THE PREPARATION OF N-FLUOROALKYLHYDROXAMIC ACIDS

ABSTRACT

Polyhydroxamate chelators containing fluoro substituents are of interest as potential extractants for actinides in separations involving supercritical carbon dioxide. In this context, we have developed three new reagents 1, 2, and 3, that allow the efficient incorporation of an N-fluoroalkyl hydroxamate moiety onto a variety of substrates using acylation, alkylation, and Michael addition strategies.     

Synthesis of fluorinated malonamides and use in L/L extraction of f-elements

Synthesis of new fluorinated tertiary malonamides (F-malonamides) was accomplished, and their liquid/liquid (L/L) extraction properties with f-elements were investigated. These molecules are fluorinated analogues of well known extractants used in several processes designed towards the treatment of nuclear wastes, and the efficient separation of lanthanides from minor actinides; however, the synthesis of F-malonamides deserved a modification of the general synthetic route commonly employed to prepare H-malonamides. Extraction of neodymium from various aqueous media into both fluorous and classical solvents was studied, which revealed an opposite trend between F-malonamides and H-malonamides: L/L extraction ability is very sensitive to the nitrogen atoms substitution pattern, and the most efficient F-malonamide is compound 3 (R₁ = Me), whereas the best H-malonamide is compound 5 (R₁ = Bu, DMDBTDMA).
