Abstract: | A new three-component catalytic system, PdCl2/phen/M(CF3SO3)n, was studied in the copolymerization of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) with CO. It was found that the PdCl2/phen/CF3SO3H catalytic system gave a very low catalytic activity, and the PdCl2/phen/M(CF3SO3)n catalytic system exhibited high activity when M(CF3SO3)n was introduced instead of CF3SO3H. The resultant cooligomer was analyzed using various techniques such as FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DSC and TGA. The results indicated that the copolymer was a polyspiroketal (PS) of CO and DCPD. Due to the tension of the ring of DCPD, the degree of copolymerization is low and the degree of crystallinity is also not high. The effects of ligands, M(CF3SO3)n, solvents, 1,4-benzoquinone/PdCl2 molar ratio, and temperatures on the copolymerization have been discussed in detail. The results showed that this novel catalytic system exhibited highly efficient activity, especially when 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) was used as ligand and Cu(CF3SO3)2 was used as cocatalyst. The corresponding reaction rate was 49 000 g PS/molPd h when the reaction was carried out at 60 °C and 3.0 MPa of CO. The weight average molecular weight (Mw) and the number average molecular weight (Mn) of the resultant cooligomer were 1180 g/mol and 564 g/mol, respectively. |
