Poly(methyl methacrylate)s having higher molecular weight (M(n)(GPC) = 18,250 and 44,130) could also be synthesized using ODMBMP as the ATRP initiator. The kinetic studies of bulk ATRP of MMA showed a linear relationships between both In[M](o)/[M(t)] vs time and molecular weight vs conversion indicating controlled/living polymerization. The presence of cyclic carbonate functionality in poly(methyl methacrylate)s was confirmed by FUR. (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. The reactivity of cyclic carbonate group was demonstrated by a model reaction using n-propyl amine and the results showed quantitative conversion to hydroxyl urethane group. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Inherent viscosities of polyhydrazides and poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were in the range 0.530.66 dL g(-1) and 0.490.53 dL g(-1), respectively, indicating formation of medium to reasonably high molecular weight polymers.

Furthermore, poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were also found to be soluble in solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, pyridine, and m-cresol. Transparent, flexible, and tough films of polyhydrazides and poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s could be cast from N,N-dimethylacetamide and chloroform solutions, respectively. Both polyhydrazides and poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were amorphous in nature and formation of layered structure was observed due to packing of pentadecyl chains. A decrease in glass transition temperature was observed both in polyhydrazides (143-166 degrees C) and poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s (90-102 degrees C) which could be ascribed to internal plasticization effect of pentadecyl chains. The T-10 values, obtained from TG curves, for poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole)s were in the range of 433-449 degrees C indicating their good thermal stability. (C) 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Well- defined bis-allyloxy functionalized polystyrene macromonomers (M-n,M-GPC 4800-11 700gmol(-1)) with controlled molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution (1.05-1.09) were synthesized using ATRP by varying the monomer to initiator feed ratio. The presence of allyloxy functionality on polystyrene was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and H-1 NMR spectroscopy. A kinetic study of polymerization revealed pseudo-first-order kinetics with respect to monomer consumption. Initiator efficiency was found to be in the range 0.80-0.95. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight spectra showed a narrow molecular weight distribution with control over the molecular weight. The reactivity of the allyloxy groups on polystyrene was successfully demonstrated by quantitative photochemical thiol-ene click reaction with benzyl mercaptan as the model thiol reagent. Furthermore, the thiol-ene click reaction was exploited to introduce other reactive functional groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl by reaction of ,-bis-allyloxy functionalized polystyrene with 2-mercaptoethanol and 3-mercaptopropionic acid, respectively.

To achieve the synthesis of desired miktoarm star polymers, acetyl protected poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) thiols (M-n = 550 and 2000 g mol(-1)) were utilized to generate A(3)-type of homoarm star polymers through an in situ protective group removal and a subsequent thiol-epoxy ``click'' reaction with a tris-epoxide core viz. 1,1,1-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane triglycidyl ether. The secondary hydroxyl groups generated adjacent to the core upon the thiol-epoxy reaction were esterified with alpha-bromoisobutyryl bromide to install atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiating sites. ATRP of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) using the three-arm star PEG polymer fitted with ATRP initiating sites adjacent to the core afforded A(3)B(3)-type of double hydrophilic (PEG)(3)[poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)] (PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymers. Furthermore, the generated hydroxyl groups were directly used as initiator for ring-opening polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone to prepare A(3)B(3)-type of amphiphilic (PEG)(3)[poly(epsilon-caprolactone)](3) miktoarm star polymers. The double hydrophilic (PEG)(3)(PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymers showed lower critical solution temperature around 34 degrees C. The preliminary transmission electron microscopy analysis indicated formation of self-assembly of (PEG)(3)(PNIPAM)(3) miktoarm star polymer in aqueous solution. (c) 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.

PPH-N-3 was conveniently synthesized starting from commercially available phenolphthalein by a three-step route in an overall yield of 65% using simple organic transformations. Aromatic (co)polyesters bearing pendant azido groups were synthesized by low-temperature solution polycondensation of PPH-N-3 or different molar ratios of PPH-N-3 and bisphenol-A (BPA) with aromatic diacid chlorides in dry dichloromethane in the presence of triethylamine (TEA) as a base. The formation of medium to reasonably high-molecular-weight (co)polyesters was evidenced from intrinsic viscosity and number-average molecular-weight measurements that were in the range 0.52-0.85 dL/g and 16,700-28,200, respectively. Tough, transparent, and flexible films could be cast from chloroform solutions of these (co)polyesters. (Co)polyesters were characterized using FTIR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR spectroscopy, XRD, and TGA. The thermal curing reaction of (co)polyesters involving decomposition of azido groups was studied by DSC analysis. The chemical modification of a representative copolyester containing pendant azido groups was carried out quantitatively using catalyst-free azide-maleimide cycloaddition reaction with two maleimides, namely, N-methylmaleimide and N-hexylmaleimide.

A homo and five PEEK-NBs were synthesized by polycondensation of 4, 4'-difluorobenzophenone with BPA-NB and various compositions of BPA-NB and bisphenol-A, respectively. H-1 NMR spectroscopy confirmed the chemical structure and composition of PEEK-NBs. Inherent viscosity and number-average molecular weight values of PEEK-NBs were in the range 0.64 to 0.78 dL g(-1) and 62,670 to 84,470 g mol(-1), respectively, indicating the formation of polymers of reasonably high molecular weight. It was easy to dissolve PEEK-NBs in common organic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane, and tetrahydrofuran. Tough, transparent, and flexible films of PEEK-NBs could be cast from chloroform solution. X-Ray diffraction studies indicated amorphous nature of PEEK-NBs. Glass transition temperature (T-g) values, determined by DSC analysis, of PEEK-NBs were in the range 163 to190 degrees C and T-g values increased with the increase in mol % of BPA-NB. The post-polymerization modification of a representative PEEK-NB was demonstrated using two azido compounds, namely, 4-(azidomethyl)-7-methoxy-2H-chromen-2-one and 9-(azidomethyl)anthracene, via metal-free azide-alkene 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction to obtain copoly(ether ether ketone)s appended with coumarinyl and anthracenyl moieties, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
