Architecture, self-assembly and properties of well-defined hybrid polymers based on polyhedral oligomeric silsequioxane (POSS)

2013

Abstract Well-defined hybrid polymers based on polyhedral oligomeric silsequioxane (POSS) with a variety of architectures have been developed, including telechelic polymers, block copolymers and star-shaped polymers. The synthesis, self-assembly and properties of this kind of materials are reviewed. Well-defined POSS-containing hybrid polymers can be constructed by living polymerization techniques, such as ring-opening polymerization and living free-radical polymerization or the combination of living polymerization and coupling reactions, such as click chemistry and hydrosilylation. The self-assembly behavior of well-defined POSS-containing hybrid polymers is also described in detail. The P…

Polysiloxane-backbone block copolymers in a one-pot synthesis: a silicone platform for facile functionalization.

2012

Block copolymers consisting exclusively of a silicon-oxygen backbone are synthesized by sequential anionic ring-opening polymerization of different cyclic siloxane monomers. After formation of a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) block by butyllithium-initiated polymerization of D3, a functional second block is generated by subsequent addition of tetramethyl tetravinyl cyclotetrasiloxane (D4(V) ), resulting in diblock copolymers comprised a simple PDMS block and a functional poly(methylvinylsiloxane) (PMVS) block. Polymers of varying block length ratios were obtained and characterized. The vinyl groups of the second block can be easily modified with a variety of side chains using hydrosilylation…

Superhydrophobic TiO2/Fluorinated Polysiloxane Hybrid Coatings with Controlled Morphology for Solar Photocatalysis

2021

Abstract Technological applications of polysiloxane coatings have been influenced by their intrinsic low surface energy, which increases their water repellence. Accurate control of composition and interfacial properties through the introduction of perfluorinated moieties further lowers the polysiloxane surface energy, while mixing with metal oxide nanoparticles enhances roughness, resulting in a great potential in the development of superhydrophobic materials for photocatalysis. Herein, a series of hydrophobic and superhydrophobic hybrid coatings were prepared by dehydrocoupling and hydrosilylation reactions of polymethylhydrosiloxane with 1H,1H,2H,2H‐perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane and 1,3-d…

A Facile Two-Step Route to Branched Polyisoprenes via ABn-Macromonomers

2007

A facile two-step synthesis for branched poly(isoprene)s (PI) based on polyaddition of AB n -type macromonomers is described. The synthesis of the macromonomers was achieved by anionic polymerization of isoprene and subsequent end-capping of the polymers by addition of chlorodimethylsilane to the living carbanions. This led to PI-based macromonomers with narrow polydispersity (M w /M n < 1.15) and molecular weights in the range of 1700 -22100 g mol -1 . Synthesis of the branched polymers was carried out by a hydrosilylation-based polymerization of the macromonomers. Characterization via SEC, SEC-MALLS, coupled SEC-viscosimetry and 1 H-NMR-spectroscopy supported the formation of branched str…

Synthesis of aldonamide siloxanes by hydrosilylation

1998

Abstract The synthesis of hydrophobic/hydrophilic hybrid polymers based on polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) and carbohydrate derivatives involving a hydrosilylation step is reported. Starting with poly(dimethyl- co -hydromethyl)siloxanes (PDMS- co -HMS), O -acetylated N -allylaldonamides of various sugars can be attached to the siloxane backbone using platinum catalysts. The characteristics of different transition metal complexes in the polymer-analogous formation of SiC bonds are investigated. A generalized reaction pathway applicable to several reducing carbohydrates is established to synthesize aldonamide siloxanes in a broad variety of molecular weight and composition. The products obtaine…

Ferrocenyl-functionalized long chain branched polydienes

2009

A convenient two-step approach for the synthesis of ferrocenyl-functionalized long chain branched polydienes, based on both butadiene and isoprene, respectively, is presented. Classical living anionic polymerization was used to synthesize different AB n type poly(diene) macromonomers with moderate molecular weights between 1700 and 3200 g/mol and narrow polydispersity. Quantitative end-capping with chlorodimethylsilane resulted in the desired AB n macromonomer structures. In the ensuing Pt-catalyzed hydrosilylation polyaddition, branched, functionalized polydienes were obtained by a concurrent AB n + AR type of copolymerization with mono-and difunctional ferrocenyl silanes (fcSiMe 2 H or fc…

Synthesis of small carboranylsilane dendrons as scaffolds for multiple functionalizations.

2006

Small carbosilane dendrons in which a closo-carborane is located at the focal point have been prepared by a sequence of steps involving hydrosilylation and reduction reactions. These compounds are used as scaffolds for peripheral functionalization with styrene, chlorovinylstyrene, or suitable carboranes, while keeping the C(cluster)-Si (C(c)-Si) bond. Modification of the core by reduction of the carborane with Mg/BrCH2CH2Br was also achieved.

Synthesis of Chiral Catalyst Modifiers by Hydrosilylation of Cinchonidine and Their Application in the Hydrogenation of 1-Phenylpropane-1,2-dione and…

2005

Four new chiral modifiers were synthesized in order to investigate the effect of distal modifier substitution in the hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate and 1-phenylpropane-1,2-dione on a supported Pt/Al2O3 catalyst. The chiral modifiers were prepared in good to moderate overall yields by Pt-catalyzed hydrosilylation of 9-O-TMS-protected cinchonidine with triethylsilane, triphenylsilane, bis(dimethylsilyl)ethane and (+)-(R)-methyl(1-naphthyl)phenylsilane followed by cleavage of the silyl ether protective group. Comparison of the synthesized modifiers in enantioselective hydrogenation using cinchonidine as reference modifier is reported, as well as details on their synthesis and characterization…
