"LIVING" FREE RADICAL SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL RODCOIL DIBLOCK COPOLYMERS WITH POLYSTYRENE AND MESOGEN-JACKETED LIQUID CRYSTAL POLYMER SEGMENTS*

The synthesis of rod-coil diblock copolymers was achieved for the firsttime by TEMPO-mediated "living" free radical polymerization of styrene and 2,5-bis[(4-methoxyphenyl)oxycarbonyl]styrene(MPCS). The block architecture of the two diblockcopolymers thus prepared, MPCS-b-St(5400/2400) and MPCS-b-St(10800/8700), was con-firmed by GPC, DSC studies and the formation of multimolecular micelles.     

Quantum chemistry investigation on the active site of Mn-SOD

In this paper, we carried out a theoretical study on the active site structures of the Mn-SOD with ab initio Hartree–Fock SCF method, and analyzed the molecular orbital energies, charges and atomic orbital contribution to the frontier molecular orbital.     

Surface forces in foam films from ABA block copolymer: a dynamic method study

The thinning of foam films from aqueous solutions of an ABA triblock copolymer of polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide (average molecular weight 14,000 g/mol) is studied experimentally. The dependence of the surface forces on film thickness is obtained by the dynamic method of Scheludko and Exerowa.The total surface force measured in foam films (radius 60–70 m) from 10^–5 M (0.014 wt%) polymer solution with 0.1 M NaCl is positive at thicknesses from about 800 down to 460 . The electrostatic repulsion is negligible while the contribution of van der Waals attraction is small (within 15%). Therefore a positive surface force component predominates. Most probably it arises from steric interactions between the hydrophilic polyethylene oxide tails of the polymer. The dynamic method appears to be a suitable technique for exploring the stabilization of foam films from ABA copolymers.     

Comparison of(η~6-Fluoroarene)tricarbonylchromium Complexes with Their Chloro-analogs in Radical Aromatic Substitutions

Reactions of fluoroarene-Cr(CO)_3 complexes with SmI_2 andcarbonyl compounds in THF/HMPA at-40— -60℃ affordedthe corresponding radical aromatic substitution products in highyield. Compared to the corresponding chloroarene-Cr.(CO)_3complexes, fluoroarene-Cr(CO)_3 complexes showed a higher ef-ficiency and slightly lower regioselectivity.     

原子转移自由基聚合原位合成温敏性微球

以过硫酸钾为引发剂、丙酮-水[V(丙酮)∶V(水)＝4∶6]的混合溶剂为反应介质, 在少量二乙烯苯存在的条件下使苯乙烯(St)和对氯甲基苯乙烯(CMSt)进行无皂乳液共聚反应, 得到了粒径大小均匀的交联型聚苯乙烯(PSt)微球, 由X射线光电子能谱对表面组分测定发现: CMSt上的氯原子在聚合过程中富集于交联微球的表面. 以此交联型PSt微球为原子转移自由基聚合(ATRP)的引发剂, 在22 ℃下引发N-异丙基丙烯酰胺(NIPAAm)进行原位ATRP反应, 得到了表面原子转移自由基聚合接枝的交联聚苯乙烯(PNIPAAm-g-PSt)温敏性微球. 借助傅立叶变换红外光谱、差示扫描量热仪、扫描电子显微镜及激光光散射仪等对PNIPAAm-g-PSt的结构、相转变温度、形态及不同温度下的粒径变化进行了测定, 结果表明NIPAAm单体成功地原位ATRP接枝在交联PSt微球的表面, 接枝微球的球形更规整, 在水中的相转变温度约为32 ℃, 具有明显的温度敏感性.

表面能与晶体生长/溶解动力学研究的新动向

界面现象使物质在结晶过程中出现了临界现象.但最近的研究指出在物质溶解过程中,在表面能量的控制下也存在着临界现象以及尺寸效应.实验发现,当晶体自身小到一 定的程度时(通常在纳米尺度上并和临界蚀坑的大小相近),在溶解过程中其速度会自发降 低,反应被抑制乃至停止.尽管在热力学上表面能的因素可以赋予小颗粒晶体较大的溶解度 ,但表面能却也能通过对临界条件的控制而使这些微粒在动力学上不被溶解.这个发现不仅 解决了纳米颗粒在水溶液中稳定性的问题,而且还从动力学的角度解释了生物矿物选择纳米 尺度作为其基本构成单元的原因.由于表面能和晶体生长/溶解的动力学有着密切的关系, 我们可以通过对表面能的调节来修改它们的动力学速度和晶体的形貌.反过来,也可以用动力学的方法来测定表面能及表面吸附/脱附常数等.相对于常规的界面研究手段,通过生 长和溶解动力学途径所得的数据有着很好的可靠性及重复性.我们认为,晶体生长和溶解的 动力学和表面能的研究相结合,不仅为界面研究提供了新的思路和方法,而且也会推动晶体生长和材料科学的发展.     

Application of recoverable nanosized palladium(0) catalyst in Sonogashira reaction

In the absence of ligand, copper and amine, a recoverable nanoparticle palladium(0) catalyzed Sonogashira reaction of aryl iodides and bromides with terminal alkynes was developed. The protocol involved the use of an environmental-friendly reaction system with ethanol as the solvent, potassium carbonate as a base, and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) supported nanosized palladium metal colloids as the catalyst. The palladium metal was recovered and recycled by a simple decantation of the reaction solution and used for eight consecutive trials without significant loss of its reactivity.     

典型无机含氧酸自由基的特性

碳酸自由基、硝酸自由基、磷酸自由基和硫酸自由基是化学反应的重要中间体，都具有氧化性，对污染物在自然和人为环境中的迁移转化会产生重要的影响.文中较为详细地介绍这几种自由基的电极电位、产生方式、检测方法及与有机物的反应方式.总结四种自由基的特性及与有机物的反应方式可发现，四种自由基和羟自由基电极电位不同，导致它们和有机物反应速率的不同；碳酸自由基并不是羟自由基去除剂，对于一些容易被氧化的化合物，碳酸自由基氧化效果比羟自由基好；四种自由基均可由羟自由基转化而来，并且这四种自由基和羟自由基与有机物反应方式基本一致，都通过电子转移、夺氢和加成的方式进行.可以预测四种自由基和羟自由基降解有机物的机理将非常相似，今后应研究四种自由基与羟自由基相互转化的规律，以及与代表性有机物的反应机理.
