Sterically controlled self-assembly of tetrahedral M(6)L(4) cages via cationic N-donor ligands.

2014

Tripodal cationic N-donor ligands exhibit sterically controlled self-assembly of tetrahedral M6L4 coordination cages that promote selective anion encapsulation (PF6(-)OTf(-)) in the solid state. The described method is a potential template for stepwise assembly of hetero-ligand coordination cages and polymers.

Synthetic approaches towards new polymer systems by the combination of living carbocationic and anionic polymerizations

1996

This study summarizes recent efforts to obtain by combination of living carbocationic and anionic polymerizations block copolymers which are potential precursors for building new well-defined polymeric architectures with microphase separated morphology. Living carbocationic polymerization (LCCP) yields telechelic polyisobutylene (PIB) chains with a variety of useful endgroups, such as tert-chlorine, isopropenyl, primary hydroxyl, tolyl etc. When tolyl-ended PIB was used as precursor for macroinitiator of living anionic polymerization of 2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl methacrylate (tBuMe2SiOEMA), mixtures of homopolymers and block copolymers were formed due to incomplete lithiation of t…

The polysoaps [CH 2 C(Me)(CO 2 R)] n (R=(CH 2 ) 11 N + Me 2 (CH 2 ) 3 SO 3 − , (CH 2 ) 11 N + Me 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH) are studied. Their aqueous solution properties are strongly influenced by added salts; the surface activity can be modified efficiently by an appropriate choice of ions. The interactions of salts and polyzwitterions observed in solution can be extended to the behaviour in bulk. It enables the preparation of uniform, non crystalline blends containing up to equivalent amounts of inorganic salt and polyzwitterions

Oxo and Hydroxo Tantalocene Complexes:  Synthesis and Reactivity. X-ray Molecular Structures of [(η5-Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η5-C5H4SiMe3)]+Cl-, (η5-Cp*)TaCl(O)…

Exposure of a THF solution of tantalocene dichloride complexes (η 5 -Cp*)TaCl 2 (η 5 -C 5 H 4 -SiMe 3 ) (1) and (η 5 -Cp*)TaCl 2 (η 5 -C 5 H 5 ) (2) to the ambient atmosphere for 12 h leads to the formation of new tantalum(V) cationic hydroxo complexes [(η 5 -Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η 5 -C 5 H 4 SiMe 3 )] + -Cl- (3) and [(η 5 -Cp*)TaCl(OH)(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )]+Cl - (4). This oxidation reaction is more rapid under oxygen atmosphere since the hydroxo complexes are obtained in better yields within only 15 min. The hydroxo complexes are easily deprotonated by base to generate oxo complexes 5 and 6, which, in turn, react with trimethylsilyl triflate, giving the corresponding cationic silylated complexes 7 and 8…

Pyrrolide-imine benzyl complexes of zirconium and hafnium: synthesis, structures, and efficient ethylene polymerization catalysis

2004

Abstract A series of pyrrolyl-imines HL1–6 was prepared by the condensation of pyrrole-2-carboxyaldehyde with different amines. The reaction of 2 equiv of pyrrolyl-imine with tetrabenzyl complexes of hafnium and zirconium M(CH2Ph)4 (M=Hf or Zr) gave dibenzyl complexes (L3–6)2M(CH2Ph)2, which were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and crystal structure analysis. NMR spectra of the complexes with secondary alkyl substituents at the imine nitrogen (isopropyl: 3a, 4-tert-butylcyclohexyl: 4a and 4b) suggest that rapid racemization between Δ and Λ configurations occurs in solution on the NMR time scale. The complexes with pyrrolide-imine ligands with a tertiary alkyl group such as tert-butyl (5a …

Interactions between cationic amylose derivatives and a pulp fiber model surface studied by molecular modelling

2007

This study was performed in order to obtain more information about the interactions between pulp fibers and acetylated cationic starch derivatives on a molecular scale. The adsorption of the polymers on the fiber surface was studied by simulating polymers on a fiber model surface at 300 K. Fractional atomic coordinates of regenerated cellulose II were used to generate a cellulose fiber surface model. Carboxylate groups were added on the cellulose surface to represent the anionic charge of pulp fiber which originates from hemicelluloses. Amylose chains cationized and acetylated atom by atom were chosen to represent four different starch derivatives. Atomic charges used in simulations were ca…

ChemInform Abstract: Multifunctional Poly(ethylene glycol)s

2011

In the rapidly evolving multidisciplinary field of polymer therapeutics, tailored polymer structures represent the key constituent to explore and harvest the potential of bioactive macromolecular hybrid structures. In light of the recent developments for anticancer drug conjugates, multifunctional polymers are becoming ever more relevant as drug carriers. However, the potentially best suited polymer, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), is unfavorable owing to its limited functionality. Therefore, multifunctional linear copolymers (mf-PEGs) based on ethylene oxide (EO) and appropriate epoxide comonomers are attracting increased attention. Precisely engineered via living anionic polymerization and d…

Üuber die kationische polymerisation von äthylensulfid, initiiert durch SO3

1971

SO3 verursacht eine heftige Polymerisation von Athylensulfid in wasserfreien, inerten organischen Losungsmitteln. Die kinetischen Daten, die chemische Analyse der Endgruppen und die IR-spektroskopische Untersuchung des Polymerisats sprechen gegen eine Cokatalyse und fur einen direkten zwitterionischen Initiierungsschritt unter Bildung von Die kationischen aktiven Zentren werden rasch durch Reaktion mit den Sulfidgruppen des Oligomeren unter Bildung nicht wachstumsfahiger, acyclischer Sulfoniumionen desaktiviert; dadurch bleiben die kinetischen Kettenlangen klein, und es entsteht ein verzweigtes oder vernetztes, unlosliches Produkt. SO3 is a vigorous initiator of the cationic polymerization …

Electrochemical production of initiators for polymerization processes

2007

The most important technological interest in initiator production lies, in the electrosynthesis of complex catalytic systems, i. e. coordination compounds and Ziegler-Natta catalysts, although the choice of olefins to be polymerized with these electrosynthesized complexes is still limited to ethylene and to very few other monomers.
