In particular, the invention relates to glycolurils which have at least one carboxyalkyl, glycidyl or allyl group in the molecule as a functional group, and which are accordingly useful as a component for various resin compositions because of the functional group. The invention further relates to various useful resin compositions comprising the above-mentioned glycolurils as use thereof. 10 BACKGROUND ART [0002] Glycolurils, which are heterocyclic compounds having four urea-based nitrogens in its ring structure, have been used in various applications and for production of new functional compounds, based on the reactivity of the urea-based 15 nitrogens. [0003] On the other hand, compounds having highly reactive functional groups, for example, allyl groups in a plural number in the molecule, such as triallyl isocyanurate, are well known as a crosslinking agent for synthetic resins and rubbers. Similarly, tetraallylglycolurils having four allyl groups in the molecule, which function as a crosslinking agent for synthetic resins and rubbers, are also known. 20 [0004] However, for example, glycoluril compounds of which the hydrogen atoms on all of the four nitrogen atoms are substituted with carboxyalkyl groups are expected to function as a crosslinking agent for epoxy resins and others, but no such compound is hitherto known. In addition, compounds having plural glycidyl groups in the molecule as functional groups, such as triglycidyl isocyanurate that has three glycidyl groups in the molecule, have been well known as a crosslinking agent for epoxy resins. 25 [0005] However, glycoluril compounds of which the hydrogen atom on at least one nitrogen atom is substituted with a glycidyl group, are not hitherto known. [0006] Such glycoluril compounds of which the hydrogen atom on at least one nitrogen atom is substituted with a glycidyl group are useful as synthetic intermediates for oxygen-containing compounds; glycolurils having one epoxy group in the molecule are useful, for example, as reactive diluents for epoxy resins; and glycolurils having two or more 30 epoxy groups in the molecule are expected to be useful, for example, as crosslinking agents for epoxy resins. [0007] As described above, although tetraallylglycolurils are already known, glycolurils having one allyl group in the molecule, which are useful, as they are, for example, as synthetic intermediates, and allylglycolurils having two or three allyl groups in the molecule, which are expected to be useful as crosslinking agents for synthetic resins and rubbers, are not hitherto known. 35 [0008] Thus, the basic invention of the present invention relates to a new glycoluril having a carboxyalkyl, glycidyl or allyl group as the functional group. The present invention further relates to various useful resin compositions comprising a glycoluril having a carboxyalkyl, a glycidyl or an allyl group as the functional group that may partially include already known glycolurils. [0009] Accordingly, the present invention provides the above-mentioned basic invention, and in addition, a first, a 40 second and a third inventions which relate to resin compositions comprising the glycoluril having a carboxyalkyl, a glycidyl or an allyl group as the functional group. Hereinafter, the background of the first, second and third inventions will be described. First invention 45 [0010] In particular, the first invention of the present invention relates to the following two inventions: (1) a new tetrakis(carboxyalkyl)glycoluril and its use, particularly as an epoxy resin composition comprising the tetrakis(carboxyalkyl)glycoluril as a crosslinking agent. 50 (2) a polyester resin composition for use in powder paints comprising the polyester resin obtained by polyconden- sation reaction of the above-mentioned tetrakis(carboxyalkyl)glycoluril with glycols. [0011] Powder paints have advantages over solvent-type paints, for example, that they are pollution-free paint gen- erating no organic volatile materials, give thick coated product in one application, permit use of the coated product 55 immediately after coating, are relatively cheap, and can be recovered and reused. Thus, recently there are rapidly increasing demand for them as protective decorative paints for home electrical appliances, building materials, automobile parts and others. [0012] Epoxy resin-, acrylic resin- and polyester resin-based paints have been mainly used as powder paints and, in 2 EP 3 075 735 A1 particular, polyester resin-based powder paints provide coating film with favorably balanced performance. [0013] It is needed for production of a powder paint superior in weather resistance to improve the weather resistance of the main component polyester resin, and normally, polyester resins having higher copolymerization ratios of isophthalic acid as a carboxylic acid component and neopentylglycol as a glycol component are used. 5 [0014] Since isophthalic acid has an absorption region different from the wavelength region of solar light energy and neopentylglycol has no hydrogen atoms at the ß-carbons, polyesters containing larger amounts of these components are known to be resistant to photodegradation and show favorable weather resistance. [0015] Isocyanate-based curing agents used in the polyester resin-based powder paints have hydroxyl groups at main terminals, and have a structure which is unreactive at a certain temperature or lower by blocking the highly reactive 10 isocyanate group therein with a blocking agent; however, they contaminate a baking oven as the blocking agent disso- ciates when they are baked, and thus the use of them is not desired. [0016] Although triglycidyl isocyanurate-based curing agents contain no blocking agent, they show mutagenicity and thus use of them is unfavorable from the point of safety. [0017] Recently, hydroxyalkyl amides are attracting attention as a curing agent, replacing the triglycidyl isocyanurate 15 curing agents. Powder paints containing a hydroxyalkyl amide as a curing agent permit low-temperature baking and give no volatile materials during baking. Thus, they are clean paints that have no load on environment. [0018] However, powder paints containing a hydroxyalkyl amide as a curing agent has a disadvantage that they are lower in the smoothness and substrate adhesiveness of the coated film, in particular, in adhesiveness after water- and humidity-resistance treatments. 20 [0019] Although a powder paint of a polyester resin which is obtained from an aromatic dicarboxylic acid and an aliphatic diol, and has a particular viscosity and a particular acid value is proposed to overcome such disadvantages (see Patent Document 1), the powder paint does not show satisfactory weather resistance, though it is superior in smoothness and substrate adhesiveness of the coated film. [0020] Also proposed is a powder paint comprising a resin which is obtained by depolymerization of a polyester resin 25 fromisophthalic acid and neopentylglycol with isophthalic acid as the main component (see Patent Document 2). However, the powder paint is still insufficient in smoothness of the coated film, though it is superior in weather resistance, low- temperature curing efficiency, smoothness of coated film and substrate adhesiveness. Second invention 30 [0021] A second invention of the present invention relates to a new glycidylglycoluril of which the hydrogen atom on at least one nitrogen atom is substituted with a glycidyl group and use of the same, particularly as an epoxy resin composition comprising the same. [0022] Thus, the second invention of the present invention relates to the following four inventions: 35 (1) A new glycidylglycoluril and a resin composition comprising the same Glycolurils having glycidyl groups as functional groups are not hitherto known, and they are expected to be useful because of the reactivity of the glycidyl group.

  • Proton Nmr Spectroscopy
    1H NMR Spectroscopy (#1c) The technique of 1H NMR spectroscopy is central to organic chemistry and other fields involving analysis of organic chemicals, such as forensics and environmental science. It is based on the same principle as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This laboratory exercise reviews the principles of interpreting 1H NMR spectra that you should be learning right now in Chemistry 302. There are four questions you should ask when you are trying to interpret an NMR spectrum. Each of these will be discussed in detail. The Four Questions to Ask While Interpreting Spectra 1. How many different environments are there? The number of peaks or resonances (signals) in the spectrum indicates the number of nonequivalent protons in a molecule. Chemically equivalent protons (magnetically equivalent protons) give the same signal in the NMR whereas nonequivalent protons give different signals. 1 For example, the compounds CH3CH3 and BrCH2CH2Br all have one peak in their H NMR spectra because all of the protons in each molecule are equivalent. The compound below, 1,2- dibromo-2-methylpropane, has two peaks: one at 1.87 ppm (the equivalent CH3’s) and the other at 3.86 ppm (the CH2). 1.87 1.87 ppm CH 3 3.86 ppm Br Br CH3 1.87 ppm 3.86 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 2. How many 1H are in each environment? The relative intensities of the signals indicate the numbers of protons that are responsible for individual signals. The area under each peak is measured in the form of an integral line.

    6-1 SECTION 6 NOMENCLATURE AND STRUCTURE OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Many organic compounds have common names which have arisen historically, or have been given to them when the compound has been isolated from a natural product or first synthesised. As there are so many organic compounds chemists have developed rules for naming a compound systematically, so that it structure can be deduced from its name. This section introduces this systematic nomenclature, and the ways the structure of organic compounds can be depicted more simply than by full Lewis structures. The language is based on Latin, Greek and German in addition to English, so a classical education is beneficial for chemists! Greek and Latin prefixes play an important role in nomenclature: Greek Latin ½ hemi semi 1 mono uni 1½ sesqui 2 di bi 3 tri ter 4 tetra quadri 5 penta quinque 6 hexa sexi 7 hepta septi 8 octa octo 9 ennea nona 10 deca deci Organic compounds: Compounds containing the element carbon [e.g. methane, butanol]. (CO, CO2 and carbonates are classified as inorganic.) See page 1-4. Special characteristics of many organic compounds are chains or rings of carbon atoms bonded together, which provides the basis for naming, and the presence of many carbon- hydrogen bonds. The valency of carbon in organic compounds is 4. Hydrocarbons: Compounds containing only the elements C and H. Straight chain hydrocarbons are named according to the number of carbon atoms: CH4, methane; C2H6 or H3C-CH3, ethane; C3H8 or H3C-CH2-CH3, propane; C4H10 or H3C-CH2- CH2-CH3, butane; C5H12 or CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3, pentane; C6H14 or CH3(CH2)4CH3, hexane; C7H16, heptane; C8H18, octane; C9H20, nonane; C10H22, CH3(CH2)8CH3, decane.

As a result, the durability of wood-fiber–thermoplastic composites after ultraviolet exposure has become a concern. Samples of 100% high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and HDPE filled with 50% wood- flour (WF) were weathered in a xenon arc-type accelerated weathering apparatus for 2000 h. Changes in surface chemistry were studied using spectroscopic techniques. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to verify the occurrence of surface oxidation. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to monitor the development of degradation products, such as carbonyl groups and vinyl groups, and to determine changes in HDPE crystallinity. The results indicate that surface oxidation occurred immediately after exposure for both the neat HDPE and WF/HDPE composites; the surface of the WF/HDPE composites was oxidized to a greater extent than that of the neat HDPE. This suggests that the addition of WF to the HDPE matrix results in more weather-related damage.

  • Alkynes: Molecular and Structural Formulas
    Alkynes: Molecular and Structural Formulas The alkynes comprise a series of carbon- and hydrogen-based compounds that contain at least one triple bond. This group of compounds is a homologous series with the general molecular formula of C n H2 n--2 , where n equals any integer greater than one. The simplest alkyne, ethyne (also known as acetylene), has two carbon atoms and the molecular formula of C2H2. The structural formula for ethyne is In longer alkyne chains, the additional carbon atoms are attached to each other by single covalent bonds. Each carbon atom is also attached to sufficient hydrogen atoms to produce a total of four single covalent bonds about itself. In alkynes of four or more carbon atoms, the triple bond can be located in different positions along the chain, leading to the formation of structural isomers. For example, the alkyne of molecular formula C4H6 has two isomers, Although alkynes possess restricted rotation due to the triple bond, they do not have stereoisomers like the alkenes because the bonding in a carbon-carbon triple bond is sp hybridized. In sp hybridization, the maximum separation between the hybridized orbitals is 180°, so the molecule is linear. Thus, the substituents on triple-bonded carbons are positioned in a straight line, and stereoisomers are impossible Alkynes: Nomenclature Although some common alkyne names, such as acetylene, are still found in many textbooks, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature is required for journal articles. The rules for alkynes in this system are identical with those for alkenes, except for the ending.

Abstract: Hybrid copolymerization of structurally different, reactivity and mechanism distinct monomers (e.g., cyclic and vinyl type monomers) is of great interest and challenge for both academic research and practical application. Herein, ethylene oxide-co-tert-butyl methacrylate-co-poly(ethylene glycol) benzyl methacrylate (EO-co-BMA-co-bPEO), a statistical copolymer was synthesized via hybrid copolymerization of EO and BMA using an uncharged, non-nucleophilic organobase t-BuP4 as the catalyst. Detailed characterizations indicate that hybrid copolymerization of ethylene oxide and vinyl monomer forms a statistical copolymer concurrently with the transesterification of tert- butyl group and oligomer PEO anions. The application of the copolymer as all solid lithium-ion battery polymer electrolyte was investigated by detecting the ionic conductivity (σ) with electrical impedance spectrum measurement.

  • Synthesis of 3D-PEPS According to 2 Related Pathways
    Laboratory of Macromolecular And Physical Organic Chemistry Department of Chemistry Katholieke Universiteit Leuven Celestijnenlaan, 200F B-3001 Leuven Belgium Surface Protection Coatings Against Corrosive Materials. Synthesis of 3D-PEPS (Three Dimensional Polyester-Polystyrene) According to 2 related pathways. Introduction In the confusing jungle of commercial nomenclature of polymer chemicals and reactions, a scientific proof is given that 3D-PEPS (three dimentional polyester-polystyrene) copolymer matrix materials are synthesed according to 2 pathways which start from the same classes of raw materials and use the same reaction mechanisms. The intermediate prepolymers of both pathways belong to the same family of reactive prepolymers. More specific: Raws materials classes: Carboxyl acids and diols Reaction mechanisms: Condensation; for the creation of prepolymers Free radical vinyl copolymerisation; crosslinking of prepolymers with vinyl monomers (eg styrene) to form 3D-PEPS matrix. Intermediate prepolymers: DVDE (divinyl-diester) and MVME (multivinyl-multiester) are subfamilies of the PVPE (polyvinyl-polyester) family. Definitions 3D-PEPS = three dimentional polyester-polystyrene: copolymer matrix with multiple ester groups and multiple styrene groups. Commercial names: (crosslinked) polyester PVPE = polyvinyl-polyester : prepolymer with 2 or more vinyl groups and 2 or more ester groups. Commercial names: “unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester”. DVDE = divinyl-diester: prepolymer with 2 vinyl groups and 2 ester groups. The vinyl groups are at the ends of the prepolymer, the ester groups next to them. Commercial names: vinyl ester, unsaturated epoxy, epoxy vinyl ester, phenacrylate, unsaturated monocarboxyl-epoxypolymer condensate, unsaturated monocarboxyl-diol condensate. MVME = multivinyl-multiester: prepolymer with multi (>2) vinyl and multi (>2) ester groups. The vinyl groups and ester groups are located inside the prepolymer.

IUPAC Substitutive Nomenclature The IUPAC substitutive nomenclature of alkenes is derived by modifying alkane nomencla- ture in a simple way. An unbranched alkene is named by replacing the ane suffix in the name of the corresponding alkane with the ending ene and specifying the location of the double bond with a number. The carbons are numbered from one end of the chain to the other so that the double bond receives the lowest number. The carbons of the double bond are numbered consecutively. 12 3456 H2CA CH CH2CH2CH2CH3 1-hexene L hexane ene hexene + = position of double bond The IUPAC recognizes an exception to this rule for the name of the simplest alkene, H2CACH2, which is usually called ethylene rather than ethene. (Chemical Abstracts (Sec. 2.4D, p. 66), however, uses the substitutive name ethene.) The names of alkenes with branched chains are, like those of alkanes, derived from their principal chains. In an alkene, the principal chain is defined as the carbon chain containing the greatest number of double bonds, even if this is not the longest chain.
