Mechanism of Anionic Polymerization of (Meth)acrylates in the Presence of Aluminum Alkyls, 6. Polymerization of Primary and Tertiary Acrylates
1998
The kinetics of the polymerization of n-butyl acrylate initiated by lithiated ester enolates in the presence of aluminum alkyls was investigated in toluene and in toluene/Lewis base mixed solvents at −78 °C. In pure toluene, curved time−conversion plots, incomplete monomer conversion, and broad molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mn ≈ 2) are observedin the absence of aluminum alkyls the molecular weight distributions are significantly broader (Mw/Mn > 14). High monomer conversions and narrower molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mn ≈ 1.5) are obtained when using Lewis bases (e.g., methyl pivalate) as cosolvents. The polymerization of tert-butyl acrylate rapidly reaches full monomer conversion…
Synthesis and solution properties of star-shaped poly(tert-butyl acrylate)
2000
A series of star polymers consisting of poly(tert-butyl acrylate) arms and an ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) microgel core were synthesized using anionic polymerization. The effect of various parameters (precursor length, ratio [[EGDMA]/[Initiator], reaction time, and overall concentrations) on the average number of arms was investigated. Molecular weights were determined using GPC coupled with an online viscometer and MALLS. The exponents for the relation between intrinsic viscosity or radius of gyration and molecular weight, respectively, are extremely low, indicating that the dimensions of the star polymers only slightly increase with the number of arms. After a certain number of …

The influence of lithium tert-butoxide (tBuOLi) and of lithium chloride on the oligomerization of tert-butyl acrylate (tBuA) initiated by tert-butyl α-lithioisobutyrate (tBiB-Li) was investigated. These additives affect both the kinetics and the product distribution. Whereas the addition of LiCl leads to a narrower molecular-weight distribution (MWD) the presence of tBuOLi induces broader MWD's, characterized by a very high fraction of the dimer. Both additives decrease the rates of propagation to different degrees. These effects are discussed on the basis of the formation of aggregates and adducts, the lithiated dimer having a higher tendency to form aggregates than the other oligomers. Th…
Die kationische ɛ-caprolactam-polymerisation. IV. Isolierung und strukturermittlung der oligomeren als beitrag zur aufklärung des polymerisationsmech…
1966
Molekulareinheitliche Oligomere von Polykondensations- und Polyadditionsreaktionen konnen zur Aufklarung von Struktur und Bildungsmechanismus der Polymeren dienen. Auf diesem Wege wird der fruher vorgeschlagene Mechanismus der kationischen Lactampolymerisation mit wasserfreien Sauren erhartet, der in einer Acylierung des Lactams durch Lactamsalz unter Bildung von Aminoacyllactamsalz und nachfolgendem Kettenwachstum durch Addition weiterer Lactammolekule an die entstandene und immer wieder neu gebildete Ammonium-Endgruppe besteht. Dazu werden aus Caprolactam und Chlorwasserstoff als Initiator unter geeigneten Bedingungen Oligomerengemische gewonnen und elektrophoretisch aufgetrennt. Mikropra…

Carbon-centered radicals represent highly useful reactive intermediates in organic synthesis. Their nucleophilic character is reflected by fast additions to electron deficient C=X double bonds as present in iminium ions or cationic heterocycles. This review covers diverse reactions of preformed or in situ-generated cationic substrates with various types of C-radicals, including alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, trifluoromethyl, aryl, acyl, carbamoyl, and alkoxycarbonyl species. Despite its high reactivity, the strong interaction of the radical’s SOMO with the LUMO of the cation frequently results in a high regioselectivity. Intra- and intermolecular processes such as the Minisci reaction, the Porta react…

Performance of amines as silanol suppressors in reversed-phase liquid chromatography
2016
In reversed-phase liquid chromatography, cationic basic compounds yield broad and asymmetrical peaks, as a result of their ionic interaction with the anionic free silanol groups present in the silica-based stationary phases (commonly derivatised with C18 groups). A simple way to improve the peak shape is the addition to the hydro-organic mobile phase of a reagent (usually called additive) with cationic character. This associates with the stationary phase to prevent the access of analytes to the free silanol groups. Cationic additives may interact electrostatically with the anionic silanols. The hydrophobic region of the additive may also associate with the alkyl chains bound to the stationa…
Magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers for the selective determination of cocaine by ion mobility spectrometry
2018
Abstract Magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) were prepared for cocaine recognition by bulk polymerization in the presence of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Two reagents (polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (V)) were used for MNPs modification. MMIPs were characterized and compared in terms of loading capacity, reusability, accuracy and precision for the extraction of cocaine from saliva samples. It was observed that V-MMIPs gave higher physical stability than PEG-MMIPs. Thus, V-MMIP were used for the analysis of cocaine users saliva. The developed procedure based on ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) provided limits of detection and quantification o…
Comparative chemistry of 18-electron Mo(II) and 17-electron Mo(III) compounds containing only carbon-based ligands
1998
International audience; The chemical reactivity of various kinetically stable isomers of compound CpMo(η3-C3H5)(η4-C4H6), 1, and its oxidation product [1]+, as well as the bis-allyl Mo(III) complex CpMo(η3-C3H5)2, 2, and the bis-diene Mo(II) complex [CpMo(η4-C4H6)2]+, 3, is reviewed. The inertness toward isomerization processes of the allyl and butadiene ligands in the Mo(II) complexes has allowed a study of the relative reactivity toward both electrophilic and nucleophilic addition processes as a function of coordination mode. The dependence of various reaction pathways on the metal oxidation state has also been investigated. Of particular interest is the discovery that the electronically …
Mechanism of oxidative allyl transfer from allylic ammonium cations to palladium(0) α-diimine complexes
1996
Abstract The palladium(0) complex [Pd(η2-fn)(NN′)] (1, fn = fumaronitrile; NN′ = C5H4N-2-CH=NC6H4OME-4) reacts slowly and reversibly with A + CH 2 CH=CH 2 (2a, A = NEt 3 ; 2 b , A = C 5 H 5 N ) to yield the cationic η3-allypalladium(II) derivative [ Pd (η[ 3 - C 3 H 5 )( N N ′)] + (3) the free amine A and fn. The equilibrium constant Ke is (2.6 ± 0.1) × 10−3 for 2a and 1.0 ± 0.4 for 2b. Kinetic studies of these oxidative allyl-transfer reactions show that the rates increase with increasing concentration of 2 and with decreasing concentration of fn. A stepwise mechanism is proposed which involves slow and reversible displacement of fn by 2 to give a labile intermediate [ Pd (η 2 - CH…
