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…

Tuning the selectivity of molecularly imprinted polymer extraction of arylcyclohexylamines: From class-selective to specific

2020

Abstract A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) has been prepared in presence of 3-hydroxy phencyclidine (3-OH PCP) as template by bulk polymerization using N,N-dimethylformamide, as porogenic solvent, for the selective solid-phase extraction (SPE) of arylcyclohexylamines from oral fluids. Experimental variables of the extraction procedure have been studied in order to increase both, extraction recovery of 3-OH PCP, used as model analyte, and imprinting factor. By modifying the composition of the washing solvent, the selectivity of the MIP extraction procedure can be tuned, moving from an arylcyclohexylamine selective method to a 3-OH PCP specific method. The applicability of the synthesized…

Polymerization with heterogeneous metalorganic catalysts. VI. Differences in polymerization activity of α-olefins and some kinetic results on butene-…

1967

Relative changes in polymerization activity of ethylene, propylene, and butene-1 in Ziegler-Natta polymerization were compared by use of TiCl3 samples contaminated with O2 and H2O to various extents. Catalyst depletion varied for the three monomers which supported the existence of different active centers. In butene-1 polymerizations with the system Al(C2H5)2Cl–TiCl3, the formation of active centers involves an irreversible and a reversible (adsorption) reaction, the former pertaining to the formation of Al(C2H5)Cl2 and dependent upon the purity of the TiCl3. The kinetic treatment of the rate curves suggests a mixed order of catalyst deactivation and again points to the importance of Al(C2H…

Photoimaging through in-Situ Photopolymerization of Heterobifunctional Mesogenic Compounds in Liquid Crystalline State

2007

A series of heterobifunctional mesogenic biphenyl esters having two different polymerizable groups, i.e., acryl and diacetylene groups, were synthesized and their thermal behaviors and polymerization investigated. All compounds showed enantiotropic transitions. Under POM, highly birefringent focal-conic fan textures appeared on heating and cooling from the isotropic melt. Compounds 6−8 having a butyl spacer between a biphenyl and a diacetylene group exhibited LC phases even at room temperature. The X-ray diffractograms of compounds 6−8 showed a set of reflections in the small-angle region. They consisted of more than three sharp diffraction peaks with d spacings in the ratio of 1:1/2:1/3, s…

Controlled radical polymerization of styrene in miniemulsion polymerization using reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer

2003

Abstract Miniemulsion polymerizations of styrene in the presence of two reversible addition–fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) agents were studied. The rates were significantly retarded by the presence of a RAFT agents S -(thiobenzoyl)thioglycolic acid, 1 , or dithiobenzoic acid 1-phenylethyl ester, 2 . Control in miniemulsion polymerization is not as good as for bulk polymerizations. The miniemulsions could also be stabilized against Ostwald ripening by a polymer terminated by a dithiobenzoic moiety. In this case, the polymerization was not controlled because of the generation of renucleated particles. To cite this article: I. Uzulina et al., C. R. Chimie 6 (2003).

New approach for synthesis of poly(ethylglyoxylate) using Maghnite-H + , an Algerian proton exchanged montmorillonite clay, as an eco-catalyst

2017

International audience; In this works, we have explored a new method for a green synthesis of poly(ethylglyoxylate) (PEtG). This method consists on using a montmorillonite clay called Maghnite-H+ as an eco-catalyst to replace triethylamine which is toxic. Cationic polymerization experiments are performed in bulk conditions at three temperatures (-40 degrees C, 25 degrees C, 80 degrees C) and in THF solutions at room temperature (25 degrees C). At 25 degrees C, an optimum ratio of 5 wt% of catalyst leads to molar masses up to 22000 g/mol in THF solutions. Polymerizations in bulk conditions lead to slightly lower masses than experiments conducted in THF solutions. However, bulk polymerization…

Carbanionic Polymerization: Kinetics and Thermodynamics

1989

For a kinetic analysis, the process of anionic polymerization has to be divided into at least three main reactions common to all types of polymerization (equations 1–3). I* denotes initiator, M monomer, Pi* and Pi′ an active or inactive polymer chain of degree of polymerization i, respectively, and X a terminating agent.

1980

Using a bifunctional initiator such as the tetrameric dianion of α-methylstyrene for the anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate the rate constant is found to increase with conversion approaching that observed with a monofunctional initiator while the tacticity of the polymers obtained changes from that of an almost ideally atactic to a highly syndiotactic polymer. The results are explained by the assumption of an intramolecular association of the two terminal ion pairs yielding a new active species and gradually dissociating with increasing degree of polymerization of the chain. Using a polymeric dianion of α-methylstyrene as an initiator the association phenomenon is not observed.

Multi-Arm Star Poly(L-lactide) with Hyperbranched Polyglycerol Core

2007

Biocompatible multi-arm star block copolymers based on poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) have been prepared by a core-first approach, using hyperbranched polyglycerol (PG), a polyether polyol, as a polyfunctional initiator. The molecular weight of the hyperbranched initiator-core was varied from 2 200 to 5 200 g mol -1 , molecular weights of the resulting multi-arm stars were in the range of 6 700-107 000 g mol -1 (NMR), depending on the amount of dilactide (LA) added. Various monomer/initiator ratios have been employed in the Sn-catalyzed LA polymerization in order to vary the length of the lactide arms from DP n (arm) = 2 to 20 units. Detailed NMR analysis using conventional and 2D-NMR techniques (e…
