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 …

Synthesis and activity of zirconocene catalysts supported on silica-type sol-gel carrier for ethylene polymerization

2001

Synthesis and activity of bis(cyclopentadienyl)zirconium dichloride catalyst supported on unconventional silica-type material obtained in sol-gel process and activated by organoaluminium co-catalyst were studied. The effect of support modification conditions (thermal dehydration and/or modification by organoaluminium compound) and a type of co-catalyst on an activity of the catalytic system in ethylene polymerization and properties of resulting polymers were investigated and compared with results obtained earlier for vanadium catalysts supported on mentioned sol-gel carrier. The most appropriate method of the sol-gel silica-type support preparation is thermal pre-treating (200°C) followed b…

pH-sensitive hydrogel based on a polyaspartamide derivative

2006

A pH-sensitive hydrogel was prepared by UV irradiation technique. Starting polymer was obtained from alpha,beta-poly (N-2-hydroxyethyl)-DL-aspartamide (PHEA) partially derivatized with glycidyl methacrylate (PHG). The PHG copolymer was cross-linked by UV irradiation in the presence of methacrylic acid (MA) to form a pH sensitive hydrogel. The cross-linked matrix shaped as microparticles was characterized by FT-IR spectrophotometry, XPS, X-ray diffraction, SEM and particle size distribution analyses. Moreover, to have information about water affinity of the prepared sample, swelling measurements were carried out in aqueous media mimicking some biological fluids. In order to employ the prepar…

Improvement of biphasic polymerization by application of binary ionic liquid mixture

2013

Abstract The mixture of two ionic liquids, 1- n -butyl-3-methylimidazolium and 1-(2-phenylethyl)-3-methylimidazolium chloroaluminates, [C 4 -mim][AlCl 4 ] and [PhC 2 -mim][AlCl 4 ], were applied as a medium to immobilize the Cp 2 TiCl 2 titanocene catalyst for biphasic ionic liquid/hexane ethylene polymerization. The system makes possible to perform the reaction at lower temperatures, below the melting temperature of the aralkyl ionic liquid. A better separation of the ionic liquid phase was observed and an easier mass transfer of the polymer product from the ionic liquid to the hexane phase was obtained. The polyethylene reveals bimodal distribution of molecular weight. It is characterized…

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…

Polyoctenylenes and polydodecenylenes prepared by the methathesis reaction exhibit a bimodal molecular weight distribution. The low molecular weight fraction consists of cyclic oligomers, the high molecular weight fraction is assumed to contain linear polymers. The distribution of cyclic oligomers together with the polymer material indicates a ring-chain equilibrium. The slope of the plot log Kx (molar cyclization equilibrium constant) vs. log x (degree of polymerization) is close to −2,5 as predicted by the Jacobson and Stockmayer theory for unstrained macrocycles. Polyoctenylene und Polydodecenylene, dargestellt mit Hilfe der Metathese-Reaktion, weisen eine bimodale Molekulargewichtsverte…

Die Darstellung von Gelen als stationäre Phase für die Gelchromatographie

1970

Bei vernetzten Copolymeren aus athylvinylbenzol/Divinylbenzol sowie Vinylacetat/Divinyladipat wird der Einflus der Herstellungsbedingungen auf die Eigenschaften der vernetzten Polymeren untersucht. Homogen-vernetzte Gele eignen sich vor allem zur Trennung von Oligomeren; mit heterogen-vernetzten Gelen konnen Polymere getrennt werden. Es wird gezeigt, das bei der heterogen-vernetzenden Polymerisation die Heterogenitat der Copolymeren mit sinkendem Solvatationsvermogen der Inertkomponente wachst; dies fuhrt gleichzeitig zu einer Erhohung des Aussechlusmolekulargewichtes. The influence of the mode of synthesis on the characteristics of crosslinked polymers is examined for crosslinked copolymer…

Ylide als polymerisationsinitiatoren. I. Salzhaltige und salzfreie phosphoniumylide

1972

Phosphorylide, R3PCHX und R3PCH2·LiBr, konnen eine anionische Polymerisation von Vinylmonomeren starten. Dabei werden im Falle des Methacrylnitrils und des Methylmethacrylats die Ylide als Endgruppen in die Polymeren eingebaut. Bei den salzfreien Yliden hangt die Startwirksamkeit von der Basizitat des Ylidcarbanions ab, die Struktur dieser Ylide hat aber keinen mesbaren Einflus auf das Molekulargewicht und die Taktizitat der entstehenden Polymeren. Im Gegensatz dazu wird bei der Initiierung mit den salzhaltigen Yliden auch die Taktizitat der Polymeren von den Substituenten der Phosphorylide beeinflust. Phosphorous ylids, R3PCHX and R3PCH2·LiBr, are able to start an anionic polymerization of…
