Cyclodextrins in polymer synthesis: polymerization of methyl methacrylate under atom-transfer conditions (ATRP) in aqueous solution

2000

Host guest complexes of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin (m-β-CD, 1 a) were polymerized in aqueous medium using atom-transfer radical polymerization. Ethyl 2-bromoisobutyrate (EBIB) was used as an initiator, copper(I) bromide as the catalyst, and bipyridine (bipy) or 4,4′-di-(5-nonyl)-2,2´-bipyridine (dNbipy) as ligands. The unthreading of m-β-CD during the polymerization led to water-insoluble poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). It was found that using dNbipy resulted in higher monomer conversion than using bipy as the ligand under similar conditions. Furthermore, it is shown that the polymerization of MMA under these conditions has a living character. The pol…

Nanoparticle Vesicles Through Self Assembly of Cyclodextrin- and Adamantyl-Modified Silica

2010

Stable nanoparticle vesicles were for the first time prepared from adamantyl- and cyclodextrin (CD)-modified silica nanoparticles forming host-guest interactions in aqueous solution. Adamantyl-functionalized nanoparticles were obtained from thiol-isocyanate reaction of thiol-modified nanoparticles with 1-adamantyl isocyanate. The CD modified silica particles were isolated from a reaction of mono-6-para-toluenesulfonyl-β-cyclodextrin with the thiol functionalized silica under microwave conditions in basic media. The obtained particles were characterized in respect of agglomeration and self-assembly behavior in aqueous solution by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy.…

Enzymatically catalyzed synthesis of photocrosslinkable oligophenols

2000

The HRP-catalyzed oligomerization of cinnamoyl-hydroquinone-ester and cinnamoyl-4-hydroxyanilide led to the formation of soluble polyphenols. The oligomers were synthexized in water/1,4-dioxane and in water/acetone mixtures and characterized by NMR, FTIR and SEC. Upon UV treatment of the homogenoes films the polyphenols were crosslinked due to [2+2]-cycloadditions of the cinnamoyl functions.

Cyclodextrins in polymer synthesis: free radical polymerisation of cyclodextrin complexes of cyclohexyl and phenyl methacrylate in aqueous medium

1998

The polymerisation mechanism of 2,6-dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me2-β-CD) complexes of phenyl methacrylate (1) and cyclohexyl methacrylate (2) is described. The polymerisation of the complexes 1 a and 2a was carried out in water with potassium peroxodisulfate/potassium hydrogensulfite as initiator. The unthreading of the Me2-β-CD during the polymerisation led to water-insoluble poly(phenyl methacrylate) (1b) and poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate) (2b). By comparison, analogously prepared polymers from uncomplexed monomers 1 and 2 in homogeneous organic solvent (THF) with AIBN as radical initiator showed significantly lower viscosities and were obtained in lower yields in both cases.

Synthesis of Macromolecular Substances by Addition Polymerization

2001

As already explained, polymerization reactions can proceed by various mechanisms and can be catalyzed by initiators of different kinds. For addition polymerization of single compounds, initiation of chains may occur via radical, cationic, anionic, or so-called coordinative-acting initiators, but some monomers will not polymerize by more than one mechanism. Both thermodynamic and kinetic factors can be important, depending on the structure of the monomer and its electronic and steric situation. The most important initiators are summarized in Table 3.1.

Switchable Supramolecular Crosslinking of Cyclodextrin-Modified Hyperbranched Polyethylenimine via Anthraquinone Dyes

2011

Two anthraquinone dyes, 5,8-di-N-adamantylamino-1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone (AQ-OH) and 1,4-di-N-adamantylaminoanthraquinone (AQ-H), are synthesized. The combination of AQ-OH and AQ-H with hyperbranched polyethylenimine (PEI) bearing covalently attached β-cyclodextrin spontaneously formed host–guest complexes with hydrodynamic diameters of about 260 nm. Even enlarged structures of the trifunctional AQ-H were observed via DLS. Repeated measurements show that their assembly and disassembly is reversible with a critical point at 26 °C and therefore switchable via temperature. Also superstructures up to 100 μm were detected via TEM, cryo-TEM-, and SEM. Hence, a smart colored network of switchabl…

The process was investigated by (1) H NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy, and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The ability of the synthesized compound to self-organize to cyclic supramolecular structures was investigated by dynamic light scattering measurements and cryo-transmission electron microscopy.

Synthesis of Macromolecular Substances by Condensation Polymerization and Stepwise Addition Polymerization

2001

Condensation polymerizations (polycondensations) are stepwise reactions between bifunctional or polyfunctional components, with elimination of simple molecules such as water or alcohol and the formation of macromolecular substances. For the preparation of linear condensation polymers from bifunctional compounds (the same considerations apply to polyfunctional compounds which then lead to branched or crosslinked condensation polymers) there are basically two possibilities. One either starts from a monomer which has two unlike groups suitable for polycondensation (AB type), or one starts from two different monomers, each possessing a pair of identical reactive groups that can react with each …

1999

Methylated β-cyclodextrin (me-β-CD) was used to complex the hydrophobic monomers isobornyl acrylate (1) and butyl acrylate (2) yielding the water-soluble host/guest complexes isobornyl acrylate/me-β-CD (1a) and butyl acrylate/me-β-CD (2a). The included monomers were copolymerized in water by free-radical mechanism and the kinetics were studied. In order to evaluate these results, the corresponding uncomplexed monomers 1 and 2 were also copolymerized in organic solution. The reactivity ratios of 1a and 2a (r1a = 0.3, r2a = 1.7) differ significantly from the reactivity ratios of the corresponding uncomplexed acrylates 1 and 2 in organic solution (r1 = 1.3, r2 = 1.0). In addition, we found tha…

2001

Methylated β-cyclodextrin was used to complex the hydrophobic monomers n-propyl acrylate (1), n-butyl acrylate (2), n-pentyl acrylate (3), n-hexyl acrylate (4), and cyclohexyl acrylate (5) respectively yielding the corresponding water-soluble host/guest-complexes 1a−5a. The complexes were polymerized in water by free radical mechanism and the initial polymerization rates (v0) determined. We found that v0 increases as follows:  1a (12.5), 2a (27.5), 3a (44.2), 5a (49.4), 4a (75.8 × 10-6 mol·L-1·s-1). To investigate the influence of the hydrophobic character of the guest monomers on the reaction rate, the water solubilities of the uncomplexed monomers 1−5 were determined by HPLC measurements.…

2001

The copolymerization of a methylated-β-cyclodextrin (m-β-CD) 1:1 host-guest compound of styrene (1a) with various molar ratios of sodium 4-(acrylamido)-phenyldiazosulfonate (2) is described. The copolymerization of complex 1a with 2 was carried out in water with 2,2′-azobis(N,N′-dimethyleneisobutyramidine)-dihydrochloride as the free radical initiator at 40°C. Depending on the amount of 2 incorporated in the copolymer, water- or DMF-soluble copolymers of high molar mass were obtained. Irradiation of the copolymers with UV light in solution resulted in rapid decomposition of the azo chromophore, and irradiation of the polymers as films led to crosslinking and thus to insolubility.

Oxidative oligomerization of cyclodextrin-complexed bifunctional phenols catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase in water

2000

The HRP-catalyzed oligomerization of hydrophobic bifunctional phenols in water was realized by the use of 2,6-di-O-methylated β-cyclodextrin. The molecular weights of the resulting oligomers were in the same region as they were reached by conventional HRP-catalyzed oligomerizations in water/dioxane-mixtures. The polymerizable moieties, maleimide and methacrylamide, were not affected during the oligomerization process, as proofed by NMR, MALDI-TOF and FT-IR measurements. It was therefore possible to get soluble functionalized oligomers, which were crosslinked via radical copolymerization with suitable components (styrene, MMA) or heating.

The surface structure of the cellulose derivative was investigated in comparison with that of pure, microcrystalline cellulose using electron microscopy (scanning, transmission and scanning transmission), showing iron atoms of ferrocene as homogeneously distributed particles. They are detectable as clear signals in the energy-dispersive X-ray profile. In addition, Rame-β-cyclodextrin was supramolecularly attached to cellulose and the complex formed was …

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of a poly(hydroquinone)

1999

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of a poly(hydroquinone) was achieved by enzymatic oxidative polymerization of 4-hydroxyphenyl benzoate, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the resulting polymer. The polymerization of 4-hydroxyphenyl benzoate was performed using a peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide as catalyst and oxidizing agent, respectively, in an aqueous organic solvent. Soybean peroxidase afforded the polymer in good yields. IR analysis of the polymer showed the formation of the polymer consisting of a mixture of phenylene and oxyphenylene units. By alkaline hydrolysis of the resulting polymer, benzoate moiety was completely removed to give poly(hydroquinone).

1976

A number of acryl and methacryl derivatives of different sulfanilamides (1a—I) were prepared and polymerized. The fixation of the sulfonamide to the polymerizable group was carried out directly, using the acryl- and methacrylamides, and by means of spacer groups, to favour the enzymatic or hydrolytic release of the drug moiety. Selected sulfonamide types of different pKA values were used, and the pH-dependant solubility of the corresponding polymers was studied. The monomeric acryloyl and methacryloyl sulfonamides were homopolymerized radically by AIBN. For distribution studies polysulfadiazineacrylamide, 14C-labelled in the main chain (2e'), was synthesized. Copolymerization with 2-methyls…
