In the earliest examples of NMP, alkoxyamines were generated during the course of the polymerization through the use of conventional radical initiators in the presence of nitroxides.51 Shortly thereafter, strategies to isolate unimolecular alkoxyamines from nitroxides and radical precursors were Functional developed.9,54 This general strategy has recently been modified to allow the low temperature R alkoxyamines synthesis of the BlocBuilder⃝ alkoxyamine by photolysis of a diacid-functional azo initiator in high yield.55 Anumberofsyntheticroutestoalkoxyamineshavebeendevelopedinwhichan active alkoxyamine is generated during the course of the polymerization from precursors that are not nitroxides (Scheme 4, color scheme available online).13 The propensity of nitric oxide (Scheme 4a), nitrosoalkanes/arenes (Scheme 4b) and nitrones (Scheme 4c) to react with two equivalents of a carbon-centered radical to form alkoxyamines has been exploited as an alternative route to new nitroxide controlling agents that have allowed the controlled preparation of polymers and block copolymers,56–58 including copolymers of methyl methacrylate (MMA), and, in some cases, have facilitated polymerization at lower temperatures.59 Density functional theory has been used in combination with electron spin 58 Figure 2.

As the earliest published examples of NMP were centered on bimolecular benzoyl per- oxide/TEMPO initiating systems, most of the earliest rate acceleration strategies involved the use of various additives (e.g., camphorsulfonic acid,76,77 2-fluoro-1-methylpyridinium 78 79 p-toluenesulfonate, acetic anhydride )toincreasetherateofhomolysis(increasekd in Scheme 1) of the alkoxyamine, to retard the recombination of the nitroxide radical with the polymer radical (decrease ka in Scheme 1), or to decompose excess nitroxide that might build up due to polymer radical termination.9 Nitroxides, such as TIPNO and DEPN, that are believed to decompose at polymerization temperatures at a slow enough rate to prevent the build up of excess nitroxide without negatively affecting control over the polymerization process have similarly proven useful in increasing NMP rates.37,80 Subsequent approaches have used a wider range of initiating radicals and mediating nitroxides to control the dormant alkoxyamine/active radical equilibrium.

Unfortunately, many of these catalysts often exhibit poor thermal stability and/or non-living polymerization behavior that limits their ability to access tailored polymer structures. Due to this, the development of catalysts that display controlled/living behavior at elevated temperatures is vital. In this manuscript, we describe a Ni α-diimine complex that is capable of polymerizing ethylene in a living manner at temperatures as high as 75 ◦C, which is one of the highest temperatures reported for the living polymerization of ethylene by a late transition metal-based catalyst. Furthermore, we will demonstrate that this catalyst’s living behavior is not dependent on the presence of monomer, and that it can be exploited to access polyethylene-based block co-polymers. Keywords: polyethylene; living polymerization; nickel α-diimine; catalysis 1. Introduction Controlled/living polymerizations offer a precise means by which polymer structure, co-monomer incorporation levels, and even regio- and stereoselectivity can be tailored [1–7].

  • Aim: to Prepare Block Copolymers of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) and Styrene
    Conducting A Reversible-Deactivation Radical Polymerization (RDRP) Aim: To Prepare Block Copolymers of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) and Styrene. Polymers are ubiquitous in the modern world. They provide tremendous value because the chemical and physical properties of these materials are determined by the monomers that are used to put them together. One of the most powerful methods to construct polymers is radical-chain polymerization and this method is used in the commercial synthesis of polymers everyday. Methyl methacrylate is polymerized to form poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) which is also known as acrylic glass or Plexiglas (about 2 billion pounds per year in the US). This material is lightweight, strong and durable. The polymer chains are rigid due to the tetrasubstituted carbon atom in the polymer backbone and they have excellent optical clarity. As a consequence, these materials are used in aircraft windows, glasses, skylights, signs and displays. Polystyrene (PS), which can also be synthesized from radical chain polymerization, has found extensive use as a material (also approximately 2 billion pounds per year in the US). One of the forms of PS, Styrofoam, is used extensively to make disposable cups, thermal insulation, and cushion for packaging. Scheme 1. Radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate or styrene. While there are extensive uses for these polymers, when synthesizing any material using a free-radical polymerization, samples are obtained with limited control over molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. New methods have been developed directly at Carnegie Mellon (https://www.cmu.edu/maty/) which lead to improved control in this process. This new method is a reversible-deactivation of the polymerization reaction where highly reactive radicals toggle back and forth between an active state, where the polymer chain is growing, and a dormant state, where the polymer chain is capped (Scheme 2).

Polymerization • Give the names • Write the structural formula • Write all isomeric compounds • The processes explanation 1. NOMENCLATURE OF UNSATURATED HYDROCARBONS ALKENE NOMENCLATURE We give alkenes IUPAC names by replacing the -ane ending of the corresponding alkane with -ene . The two simplest alkenes are ethene and propene. Both are also well known by their common names ethylene and propylene. Ethylene is an acceptable synonym for ethene in the IUPAC system. Propylene, isobutylene, and other common names ending in -ylene are not acceptable IUPAC names. 1. The longest continuous chain that includes the double bond forms the base name of the alkene. 2. Chain is numbered in the direction that gives the doubly bonded carbons their lower numbers. 3. The locant (or numerical position) of only one of the doubly bonded carbons is specified in the name; it is understood that the other doubly bonded carbon must follow in sequence. 4. Carbon-carbon double bonds take precedence over alkyl groups and halogens in determining the main carbon chain and the direction in which it is numbered. 5. The common names of certain frequently encountered alkyl groups, such as isopropyl and tert-butyl, are acceptable in the IUPAC system. Three alkenyl groups--vinyl, allyl, and isopropenyl--are treated the same way: 6. When a CH 2 group is doubly bonded to a ring, the prefix methylene is added to the name of the ring: 7. Cycloalkenes and their derivatives are named by adapting cycloalkane terminology to the principles of alkene nomenclature: No locants are needed in the absence of substituents; it is understood that the double bond connects C-1 and C 2.

  • Controlled Free Radical Polymerization of Styrene Initiated by a [BPO-Polystyrene-(4-Acetamido-TEMPO)] Macroinitiator
    Die Angewandte Makromolekulare Chemie 265 (1999) 69–74 (Nr. 4630) 69 Controlled free radical polymerization of styrene initiated by a [BPO-polystyrene-(4-acetamido-TEMPO)] macroinitiator Chang Hun Han, So¨ren Butz, Gudrun Schmidt-Naake* Institut fu¨r Technische Chemie, TU Clausthal, Erzstr. 18, 38678 Clausthal-Zellerfeld, Germany (Received 15 October 1998) SUMMARY: The bulk polymerization of styrene at 1258C was studied using a [BPO-polystyrene-(4-acet- amido-TEMPO)] macroinitiator synthesized by a styrene polymerization in the presence of 4-acetamido- 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (4-acetamido-TEMPO) and benzoyl peroxide (BPO). The rates of poly- merization were independent of the initial macroinitiator concentration and they were very similar to that for the thermal autopolymerization of styrene. Additionally, different types of N-oxyls did not have any effect on the polymerization rate. The number-average molecular weights (Mn) of the obtained polymers agreed very well with theoretical predictions, deviations were observed only at low macroinitiator concentrations. Increasing macroinitiator concentrations resulted in lower magnitudes of the growing molecular weights and reduced polydispersities (Mw/Mn) at the initial stage of the polymerization. The concentration of the polymer chains was calculated, and it was recognized that the concentration of polymer chains increased during the polymerization as a result of an additional radical formation due to the thermal self-initiation of styrene. This thermal self-initiation could be proved qualitatively by the addition of N-oxyl to a macroinitiator polymeriza- tion system. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG: Ausgehend von [BPO-Polystyrol-(4-Acetamido-TEMPO)]-Makroinitiatoren wurde die Substanzpolymerisation von Styrol bei 1258C untersucht.
