Experimental and theoretical studies on electropolymerization of polar amino acids on platinum electrode
2017
International audience; The anodic oxidation of polar amino acids (L-serine, L-threonine, L-asparagine, and L-glutamine) in aqueous electrolyte on smooth platinum electrode was carried out by cyclic voltammetry coupled to electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). pH (zwitterion, acidic and alkaline) effects on their electrochemical behavior were examined. The maximum current values are measured for zwitterion species. In addition, the current increases with increasing of concentration and scan rate, and decreases with increasing pH. The resulting passivation was studied by spectroscopic analysis such as attenuated total reflection FT infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoel…
Comparison of the generation II with IV heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta catalysts used in propylene polymerizations
1998
An unsupported TiCl3-based catalyst (generation II), modified with n-butyl ether and AlEt2Cl3, was compared with a MgCl2/dibutyl phthalate/AlEt3/cyclohexylmethyldimethoxysilane catalyst system (generation IV) in propylene polymerizations. The latter (magnesium-supported) was fund to be more than 20 times as active as the former and more stereospecific, but to yield PP with a lower molecular weight (Table 2). The kinetics of the polymerizations studied with either of the catalyst, and involving the determination of concentrations of active sites [C0*] and elementary reaction rate constants (Table 4) based on earlier kinetic models, showed the C0*-values in the magnesium-supported catalyst to…
Studies on ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization over the zirconocene catalyst supported on MAO-modified MgCl2(THF)2. The effect of copolymerization con…

Badania dotyczą układu katalitycznego MgCl2(THF)2/MAO/Cp2ZrCl2/MAO (MAO — metyloaluminoksan). Stwierdzono, że zarówno aktywność tego układu katalitycznego, jak i właściwości kopolimerów w znacznym stopniu zależą od stosunku molowego Al:Zr (zmienianego w przedziae 1500—7000) i od temperatury kopolimeryzacji (tabele 1 i 2), natomiast wpływ czasu kopolimeryzacji jest mniejszy (tabela 3). Aktywność katalizatora oraz zawartość 1-heksenu wbudowanego do kopolimeru zwiększają się ze wzrostem temperatury i stosunku Al:Zr, a jednocześnie maleje ciężar cząsteczkowy i temperatura topnienia produktów. Ustalono także, że osadzenie katalizatora cyrkonocenowego na stosowanym nośniku powoduje zwiększenie je…
Titanium-magnesium catalysts containing tetrahydrofuran and ethyl acetate for ethylene polymerization
2000
A complex [TiCl3(THF)2(CH3CO2C2H5] (I) was used as a pre-cursor of titanium-magnesium catalysts for ethylene polymerization. The complex was ball-milled in hexane with [MgCl2(THF)2] and activated with AlEt3 used as cocatalyst for 15 min at 323 K. Ethylene was polymerized at 323 K in hexane at a pressure of 0.5 MPa. The reaction was quenched with methanolic 5% HCl and the polymer was washed with methanol and dried at 303 K for 12 h at 5 hPa. The catalyst was found to be very active. Depen-ding on the nature of the cocatalyst used, the catalyst activity varied within a range of 21.5–93.0 kg PE/(g Ti ź h) and the resulting polymer was cha-racterized by specific gravity 0.955–0.968 g/cm3, bulk …
Coordination Chemistry of a Bis(Tetrazine) Tweezer: A Case of Host-Guest Behavior with Silver Salts
2021
The carbon-carbon cross-coupling of phenyl s-tetrazine (Tz) units at their ortho-phenyl positions allows the formation of constrained bis(tetrazines) with original tweezer structures. In these compounds, the face-to-face positioning of the central tetrazine cores is reinforced by π-stacking of the electron-poor nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic moieties. The resulting tetra-aromatic structure can be used as a weak coordinating ligand with cationic silver. This coordination generates a set of bis(tetrazine)-silver(I) coordination complexes tolerating a large variety of counter anions of various geometries, namely, PF6−, BF4−, SbF6−, ClO4−, NTf2−, and OTf−. These compounds were characterized…
Study of Atrp Process for the Grafting of Vinyl Monomers on PVC and PVDF
2014
STUDY OF ATRP PROCESS FOR THE GRAFTING OF VINYL MONOMERS ON PVC AND PVDF Sonia Lanzalaco, Onofrio Scialdone, Alessandro Galia, Rosalia Mauro, Flavia Lazzano Dipartimento di Ingegneria Chimica, Gestionale, Informatica, Meccanica, Viale delle Scienze, Palermo e-mail: sonia.lanzalaco@unipa.it ATRP (atom transfer radical polymerization) has been recently used to prepare graft copolymers with regularly-spaced polymer chains from polymeric macroinitiators that have pendant chemical groups containing radically transferable halogen atoms [1]. The halogen atom serves as initiation site for the polymerization of side chains. Furthermore, Matyjaszewsky and Gennaro showed that an externally applied ele…
Rola chlorku magnezu jako nośnika katalizatorów Zieglera-Natty
2000
Structural examination data are presented for various supports. Porosimetry (Table 2) and particle size distribution studies on MgCl 2, MgCl 2(THF) 2, Al 2O 3 as supports, carried out prior to and after ball-milling (Figs. 1, 3), suggest that MgCl 2 is beneficial as carrier because it is more liable to pretreatment (ball-milling, presence of a Lewis base) and allows its mass to be better utilized and its surface to produce catalytically active centers. Prolonged ball-milling of MgCl 2 was found to result not only in comminuted particles but also in increased specific area and larger pore volume. Studies on synthesis conditions of a vanadium precursor supported on MgCl 2(THF) 2 showed prolon…
A remarkable selectivity in the N-functionalization of polyaza[n]paracyclophanes. Synthesis of N-(4-picolyl)-substituted 2,6,9,13-tetraaza[14]paracyc…
1997
Abstract Interaction of cationic host species, in particular Zn 2+ salts, with polyaza[n]paracyclophanes (i.e. 2,6,9,13-Tetraaza[14]paracyclophane, B323 (1a) ) directs their selective N-functionalization. In this way compounds mono- or difunctionalized with ArCH 2− groups at the benzylic nitrogen atoms can be easily obtained. Direct reaction with the alkylating agent, in the absence of the Zn 2+ species, produces, in general, very complex mixtures of mono- and polyalkylated compounds except when 4-picolyl chloride is used. In this case, mono-, di-, tri- and tetra N-substituted derivatives of D323 can be isolated depending on the amount of the alkylating agent used. In this case, the mono- a…
On the biosynthesis of cellulose in higher and lower plants
2007
Kinetic experiments on cotton cellulose and cellulose from the alga Valonia show, that the degree of polymerization during the biosynthesis of the secondary wall is independent of conversion and reaction conditions. During the whole synthesis period it remains constant at a DPw ∼ 13,000 for cotton and 16,500 for Valonia, respectively. Fractionation experiments indicate complete uniformity of the degree of polymerization at every stage of the biosynthesis. This means that the biosynthesis of secondary wall cellulose for both higher and lower plants must be a structure-controlled process and not a time-controlled one. Contrary to this evidence the synthesis of primary wall cellulose takes pla…
