Synthesis and characterization of poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene sulfone)s and their precursors: Poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene sulfide)s

Three poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene sulfide)s with oxygen to sulfur ratios of 2/1, 2/2, and 1/2 were prepared by phase-transfer catalyzed polycondensations of (1) sodium sulfide and 1,2-bis (2-chloroethoxy)ethane, (2) 1,2-ethanedithiol and 1,2-bis(2-chloroethoxy)ethane, and (3) 1,2-ethanedithiol and 2-chloroethyl ether, respectively. A buffered solution with pH between the pK_a of the monothiol (RSH) and the pK_a2 of the dithiol (HS–R–SH), or H₂S, was needed to obtain high molecular weight polymers, which suggests that nucleophiles transfer and react as monoanions rather than dianions. These poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene sulfide)s were oxidized completely to poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene sulfone)s using 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid as oxidant. Both the final polymers and the precursors have regular sequenced structures and are semicrystalline. As expected, their glass transition temperatures and melting points increase and solubilities decrease with the decrease of ether oxygen to sulfur ratio. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

New sterically hindered di-o-quinones of the biphenyl series

New di-o-quinones of the biphenyl series, namely, 2,2′-dialkyl-5,5′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl-3,4,3′,4′-diquinones, were synthesized. Their structures were established by IR and NMR spectroscopy. The molecular structure of 2,2′-dimethyl-5,5′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl-3,4,3′,4′-diquinone was established by X-ray structural analysis. The structure is characterized by orthogonal (the torsion angle is 82.9°) mutual arrangement ofo-benzoquinone fragments. ESR studies demonstrated that chemical reduction of diquinone proceeds in four oneelectron stages to form paramagnetic mono- and trianions as intermediates. Quinopyrocatechols, which are intermediates in the synthesis of di-o-quinones, were isolated and characterized.

1 INTRODUCTION Organic-inorganic hybrid materials and polyoxo-metalates have received much attention because of their intriguing structural diversity and potential applications in molecular adsorption, ion exchange, heterogeneous catalysis and nanotech nology as well as in electrical, magnetic and photochemical areas[1, 2]. One of the important ad- vances in the design of new organic-inorganic hybrid materials is utilizing poly- oxometalates’ coordination ability to produce poly- oxoanio…     

Ion-exchange selectivity of a network calixarene-containing polymer obtained by the template synthesis on Na<Superscript>+</Superscript>, K<Superscript>+</Superscript>, and Ba<Superscript>2+</Superscript> matrices

The ion-exchange equilibrium in network polymers obtained from cis-2,8,14,20-tetraphenyl-4,6,10,12,16,18,22,24-octahydroxycalix[4]arene by template synthesis on cations Na⁺, K⁺, and Ba²⁺ as matrices was studied. The selectivity coefficients of ion exchanges Ba²⁺-H⁺, Na⁺-H⁺, K⁺-H⁺, Na⁺-K⁺, and Na⁺-NH₄ ⁺ were determined. The template synthesis enhanced the affinity of the polymers to matrix-forming cations by 6–8 kJ mol⁻¹. __________ Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Preparation and characterization of p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene bonded capillaries for open-tubular capillary electrochromatography

p-tert-Butylcalix[8]arene bonded capillaries for open-tubular capillary electrochromatography were prepared with γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane as a bridge. The bonded capillary displayed low and steady electroosmotic flow (EOF) values over the pH range from 4 to 9. Detection limits for direct spectrophotometric detection at 277 nm for benzenediols (at a signal to noise ratio of 2) were 0.96 mg l⁻¹ for the unbonded capillary and 1.48 mg l⁻¹ for the bonded capillary, showing that the bonded layer did not show significant absorbance and hence decreased sensitivity. The bonded capillaries showed good separation selectivity for o-, m- and p-benzenediols, α- and β-naphthols, and α- and β-naphthylamines. This selectivity was attributed to significant interactions between the analytes and the bonded p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene, which contributed to the electrochromatographic separation mechanism. The bonded capillaries gave high stability and reproducibility.
