Summary: ω‐Styryl‐polystyrene macromonomers were synthesized by anionic induced deactivation reactions. Their homopolymerization in the presence of a fluorinated half‐sandwich metallocene catalyst (CpTiF3/MAO) was investigated. In spite of the intrinsic lower reactivity of these macromonomers with respect to the micromolecular monomer, coordination homopolymerization was possible. The influence of several experimental parameters on the polymerization yield and degree could be demonstrated. In most cases, under identical experimental conditions, higher polymerization yields and degrees were observed with respect to the CpTiCl3/MAO catalyst.

A novel α,ω‐heterofunctional poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) macromonomer possessing methacryloyl and thienyl end groups was prepared by ring‐opening polymerization of ethylene oxide initiated by potassium thienylethoxide and termination of the living PEO ends with methacryloyl chloride. Incorporation of methacryloyl and thienyl groups was confirmed by free‐radical and oxidative polymerization processes, respectively, and by means of 1H NMR analysis.
Poly(ε‐caprolactone) macromonomers were synthesized under microwave irradiation from commercial caprolactone, using commercial hydrated lanthanide halides as catalysts. The molecular weight of the polymers was in the range 3 000–5 000. Higher molecular weights (5 000–20 000) and lower polydispersity indices were obtained with THF adducts of the lanthanide halides as catalysts and also by applying longer reaction times or using diethylene glycol as a coupling reagent. 相似文献
Allyl, acrylate, and vinyl ether derivatives of castor oil were synthesized and blended with multifunctional thiols for evaluation as thiol-ene ultraviolet (UV) curable systems. The UV cured films were characterized and evaluated via ASTM tests, gel content, and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) as a function of time. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and DMA studies established that property advancement resulted from auto-oxidation, continued thiol-ene polymerization, or a combination of both mechanisms. 相似文献
Three new surfactant macromonomers (SMM) with different ethylene oxide (EO)/propylene oxide (PO) ratios (for SMM1, SMM2, and SMM3, the EO/PO ratios were 1:0.5, 1:0.9, and 1:1.25, respectively) were synthesized by the reaction between PEO-PPO di-block polymers having terminal tertiary amine groups and chloropropene. Graft copolymers of acrylamide and SMM (PAM-g-SMM) were prepared with different SMMs and grafting densities in water, and the products were confirmed by FTIR and elemental analysis. Owing to the strong hydrophobicity of the graft, the PAM-g-SMM3 was not water soluble. However, PAM-g-SMM1 and PAM-g-SMM2 aqueous solutions had good surface activity and their surface tensions were 44.26 and 37.63 mN/m at a concentration of 1000 mg/L, respectively. In general, in diluted graft PAM solutions, the copolymer predominantly formed intrapolymeric associates. The PAM-g-SMM2 was both thermo-associative and salt-associative in dilute solution. For PAM-g-SMM2, when the temperature and salt concentration increased, interpolymeric aggregations were formed. 相似文献
A novel helical poly(macromonomer) [poly(M‐PS): absolute = 82 800–252 000, determined by GPC/RALLS] with a polyacetylene main chain and polystyrene (PS) side chains was synthesized by the polymerization of acetylene‐terminated M‐PS [ = 2 000, / = 1.20, = 18] with an Rh catalyst. M‐PS was prepared by ATRP of styrene using the acetylene‐containing initiator 2‐bromo‐2‐methylpropionic acid (S)‐1‐methylpropargyl ester ( l ). In solutions, poly(M‐PS) exhibited an intense CD signal at 345–355 nm, indicating that it possessed a predominantly one‐handed helical conformation. Poly(M‐PS) had a stable helical conformation irrespective of solvents and temperature.
A facile two‐step synthesis for branched poly(isoprene)s (PI) based on polyaddition of ABn‐type macromonomers is described. The synthesis of the macromonomers was achieved by anionic polymerization of isoprene and subsequent end‐capping of the polymers by addition of chlorodimethylsilane to the living carbanions. This led to PI‐based macromonomers with narrow polydispersity ( / < 1.15) and molecular weights in the range of 1 700 – 22 100 g · mol−1. Synthesis of the branched polymers was carried out by a hydrosilylation‐based polymerization of the macromonomers. Characterization via SEC, SEC‐MALLS, coupled SEC‐viscosimetry and 1H‐NMR‐spectroscopy supported the formation of branched structures. Interestingly, these branched polymers exhibited α‐values that were similar to those reported for hyperbranched polymers based on AB2‐monomers.
