文摘Binuclear complexes have attracted extensive attention in fields such as catalysis because of their likely bimetallic synergistic effect;however,the mechanism and factors influencing this synergism remain unclear.In this work,six bis-β-ketoimine binuclear titanium complexes4a-4f containing different alkylthio sidearms and configurations were synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum(~1H-NMR),nuclear magnetic resonance carbon spectrum(^(13)C-NMR),Fourier transform infrared spectrum(FTIR),and elemental analysis.The intermetallic distances of isomeric complexes 4a,4d,4e and 4f determined through density functional theory(DFT)optimization were in the order 4a<4d<4e<4f and were found to significantly influence the catalytic performance for ethylene(co)polymerization.These complexes could efficiently catalyze ethylene polymerization and ethylene/1-hexene or ethylene/1-octene copolymerization with high activity to produce highmolecular-weight ethylene homo-and co-polymers.Among the three binuclear titanium complexes 4a-4c with similar structures but different lengths of alkylthio sidearms,complex 4a,which contained the shortest methylthio sidearm,exhibited the highest activity for ethylene polymerization and copolymerization with 1-hexene or 1-octene.Additionally,for ethylene/1-hexene or ethylene/1-octene copolymerization,it showed the highest comonomer incorporation compared with propylthio(4b)and octylthio(4c)derivatives because of the smaller steric hindrance of the methyl group in 4a and the more open coordination space for vinyl monomers.Furthermore,among the isomeric complexes 4a,4d,4e and4f,complex 4a with the shortest bimetallic distance also exhibited the highest activity towards ethylene(co)polymerization,and the highest 1-hexene or 1-octene incorporation in comparison with its regioisomeric counterparts 4d,4e and p-phenyl-bridged analog 4f,owing to a more appropriate bimetallic distance that is conducive to a synergistic effect.

文摘It is important to understand the evolution of the matter on the polymer membrane surface.The in situ and real-time monitoring of the membrane surface will not only favor the investigation of selective layer formation but can also track the fouling process during operation.Herein,an aggregation-induced emission(AIE)-active polymer membrane was prepared by the interfacial polymerization of a cyclodextrin-based glycocluster(CD@Glucose)and a tetraphenylethylene derivative modified with boronic acid groups(TPEDB)on the surface of a polyacrylonitrile(PAN)ultrafiltration membrane.This interfacial polymerization method can be stacked layer-by-layer to regulate the hydrophilicity and pore structure of the membrane.With the increase in the number of polymer layers,the separation and antifouling properties of the membrane gradually improved.Owing to the AIE property of the crosslinking agent TPEDB,the occurrence of interfacial polymerization and the degree of fouling during membrane operation can be monitored by the fluorescence distribution and intensity.With the aggravation of membrane fouling,the fluorescence decreased gradually,but recovered after cleaning.Therefore,this AIE effect can be used for real-time monitoring of interfacial polymerization as well as membrane fouling.

文摘Consisting of natural histidine residues,polyhistidine(PHis)simulates functional proteins.Traditional approaches towards PHis require the protection of imidazole groups before monomer synthesis and polymerization to prevent degradation and side reactions.In the contribution,histidine N-thiocarboxyanhydride(His-NTA)is directly synthesized in aqueous solution without protection.With the self-catalysis of the imidazole side group,the ring-closing reaction to form His-NTA does not require any activating reagent(e.g.,phosphorus tribromide),which is elucidated by density functional theory(DFT)calculations.His-NTA directly polymerizes into PHis bearing unprotected imidazole groups with designable molecular weights(4.2-7.7 kg/mol)and low dispersities(1.10-1.19).Kinetic experiments and Monte Carlo simulations reveal the elementary reactions and the relationship between the conversion of His-NTA and time during polymerization.Block copolymerization of His-NTA with sarcosine N-thiocarboxyanhydride(Sar-NTA)demonstrate versatile construction of functional polypept(o)ides.The triblock copoly(amino acid)PHis-b-PSar-b-PHis is capable to reversibly coordinate with transition metal ions(Fe^(2+),Co^(2+),Ni^(2+),Cu^(2+)and Zn^(2+))to form pH-sensitive hydrogels.

文摘Incorporation of acetal groups in the backbone is a potent strategy to create polymers that are cleavable or degradable under acidic conditions.We report here an in-depth study on the ring-closing-opening copolymerization of o-phthalaldehyde(OPA)and epoxide using Lewis pair type two-component organocatalysts for producing acetal-functionalized polyether and polyurethane.Notably,triethylborane as the Lewis acid,in comparison with tri(n-butyl)borane,more effectively enhances the polymerization activity by mitigating borane-induced reduction of the aldehyde group into extra initiating(borinic ester)species.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations present comparable energy barriers of OPA-epoxide cross-propagation and epoxide self-propagation,which is consistent with the experimental finding that an alternating-rich copolymer comprising mostly OPA-epoxide units but also epoxide-epoxide linkages is produced.In particular,when epoxide is added in a large excess,the product becomes a polyether containing acetal functionalities in the central part of the backbone and thus being convertible into polyurethane with refined acid degradability.

文摘Core-shell colloidal particles with a polymer layer have broad applications in different areas.Herein,we developed a two-step method combining aqueous surface-initiated photoinduced polymerization-induced self-assembly and photoinduced seeded reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer(RAFT)polymerization to prepare a diverse set of core-shell colloidal particles with a well-defined polymer layer.Chemical compositions,structures,and thicknesses of polymer layers could be conveniently regulated by using different types of monomers and feed[monomer]/[chain transfer agent]ratios during seeded RAFT polymerization.

文摘The preparation of polypeptide materials in continuous flow reactors shows great potential with improved reproducibility and scalability.However,conventional polypeptide synthesis from the polymerization of N-carboxyanhydride(NCA)is conducted at relatively slow rates,requiring long tubing or ending up with low-molecular-weight polymers.Inspired by recent advances in accelerated NCA polymerization,we report the crown-ether-catalyzed,rapid synthesis of polypeptide materials in cosolvents in flow reactors.The incorporation of low-polarity dichloromethane and the use of catalysts enabled fast conversion of monomers in 30 min,yielding well-defined polypeptides(up to 30 k Da)through a 20-cm tubing reactor.Additionally,random or block copolypeptides were efficiently prepared by incorporating a second NCA monomer.We believe that this work highlights the accelerated polymerization design in flow polymerization processes,offering the continuous production of polypeptide materials.

文摘Solid polymer electrolytes(SPEs)have garnered considerable interest in the field of lithium metal batteries(LMBs)owing to their exceptional mechanical strength,excellent designability,and heightened safety characteristics.However,their inherently low ion transport efficiency poses a major challenge for their application in LMBs.To address this issue,covalent organic framework(COF)with their ordered ion transport channels,chemical stability,large specific surface area,and designable multifunctional sites has shown promising potential to enhance lithium-ion conduction.Here,we prepared an anionic COF,Tp Pa-COOLi,which can catalyze the ring-opening copolymerization of cyclic lactone monomers for the in situ fabrication of SPEs.The design leverages the high specific surface area of COF to facilitate the absorption of polymerization precursor and catalyze the polymerization within the pores,forming additional COF-polymer junctions that enhance ion transport pathways.The partial exfoliation of COF achieved through these junctions improved its dispersion within the polymer matrix,preserving ion transport channels and facilitating ion transport across COF grain boundaries.By controlling variables to alter the crystallinity of Tp Pa-COOLi and the presence of-COOLi substituents,Tp Pa-COOLi with partial long-range order and-COOLi substituents exhibited superior electrochemical performance.This research demonstrates the potential in constructing high-performance SPEs for LMBs.

文摘Chain-growth radical polymerization of vinyl monomers is essential for producing a wide range of materials with properties tailored to specific applications.However,the inherent resistance of the polymer's C―C backbone to degradation raises significant concerns regarding long-term environmental persistence,which also limits their potential in biomedical applications.To address these challenges,researchers have developed strategies to either degrade preexisting vinyl polymers or incorporate cleavable units into the backbone to modify them with enhanced degradability.This review explores the various approaches aimed at achieving backbone degradability in chain-growth radical polymerization of vinyl monomers,while also highlighting future research directions for the development of application-driven degradable vinyl polymers.

文摘In recent years,cellulose-based fluorescent polymers have received considerable attention.However,conventional modification methods face challenges such as insolubility in most solvents,fluorescence instability,and environmental risks.In this study,a novel biosynthesis strategy was developed to fabricate fluorescent cellulose by adding fluorescent glucose derivatives to a bacterial fermentation broth.The metabolic activity of bacteria is utilized to achieve in situ polymerization of glucose and its derivatives during the synthesis of bacterial cellulose.Owing to the structural similarity between triphenylamine-modified glucose(TPA-Glc N)and glucose monomers,the TPA-Glc N were efficiently assimilated by the bacterial cells and incorporated into the cellulose matrix,resulting in a uniform distribution of fluorescence.The fluorescence color and intensity of the obtained cellulose could be adjusted by varying the amount of the fluorescent glucose derivatives.Compared to the fluorescent cellulose synthesized through physical dyeing,the fluorescence of the products obtained by in situ polymerization showed higher intensity and stability.Furthermore,fluorescent bacterial cellulose can be hydrolyzed into nanocellulose-based ink,which demonstrates exceptional anti-counterfeiting capabilities under UV light.This biosynthesis method not only overcomes the limitations of traditional modification techniques but also highlights the potential of microbial systems as platforms for synthesizing functional polymers.
文摘Some novel manganese and nickel complexes were synthesized by reacting manganese(Ⅱ) dichloride and nickel(Ⅱ) dichloride with pyridyl-imine ligands differing in the nature of the substituents at the imino nitrogen atom. All the complexes were characterized by analytical and infrared data: for some of them single crystals were obtained, and their molecular structure was determined by X-ray diffraction. The complexes were used in association with methylaluminoxane(MAO) for the polymerization of 1,3-butadiene obtaining active and selective catalysts giving predominantly 1,2 polybutadiene in case of manganese catalysts and exclusively cis-1,4 polybutadiene in case of nickel catalysts.

文摘The performance of hydrogel radical polymerization under ambient conditions is a major challenge because oxygen is an effective radical quencher and the steps to remove or neutralize it are time consuming and laborious.A self-initiating system consisting of transition metals and acetylacetone has been successfully developed.The system is capable of initiating free radical polymerization of hydrogels at room temperature under aerobic conditions,which is attributed to carbon radicals generated by the oxidation of acetylacetone.Some of these carbon radicals reduce oxygen to generate hydroxyl radicals,which together induce self-coagulation of hydrogels.The polymerization system was effective for a variety of monomer and hydrogel swelling and shrinking schemes,and the reaction remained successful when exposed to saturated oxygen.In conclusion,the results demonstrate that the present strategy is an effective approach to addressing the challenge of deoxygenation in polymer synthesis,and provides a convenient method for synthesizing multifunctional hydrogels under ambient conditions.

文摘As a powerful synthetic tool,ruthenium-catalyzed ring-opening metathesis polymerization(ROMP)has been widely utilized to prepare diverse heteroatom-containing polymers.In this contribution,we report the synthesis of the novel imine-based polymer through the copolymerization of cyclooctene with cyclic imine comonomer via ROMP.Because of the efficient hydrolysis reactions of the imine group,the generated copolymer can be easily degraded under mild condition.Moreover,the generated degradable product was the telechelic polymer bearing amine group,which was highly challenged for its direct synthesis.And this telechelic polymer could also be used for the further synthesis of new polymer through post-transformation.The introduction of imine unit in this work provides a new example of the degradable polymer synthesis.

文摘Although solid-state polymer electrolytes(SPEs)are expected to solve the safety hazards and limited energy density in the energy storage systems,they still encounter an inferior electrode/electrolyte interface when prepared in an ex situ manner.Recently,in situ polymerization of SPEs favor high interfacial infiltrability,improved interface contact,and reduced interface resistance,owing to the formation of a"superconformal"interface between electrode and electrolyte.Especially,in situ strategies employing ring-opening polymerization(ROP)are emerging as dazzling stars,further enabling moderate polymerization conditions,controllable molecular structure,and reduced interfacial side reaction.As the main monomers that can be in situ polymerized via the ROP strategy,cyclic ethers have been used to construct the CE-SPEs with many merits,including good battery electrochemical performances and a simple assembly process.Here,as a systematic summarization of the existing reports,this review focuses on the polymerization mechanism of ROP,the design principles of CE-SPEs electrolytes,and the recent application of in situ CE-SPEs.In particular,this review thoroughly discusses the selection of different cyclic monomers,initiators and various modification approaches in in situ fabricating CE-SPEs.Ending with offering future challenges and perspectives,this review envisions shedding light on the profound understanding and scientific guidance for further development of high-performance in situ CE-SPEs.

文摘Thiol-ene click polymerization has become an effective synthetic tool for constructing diverse sulfurcontaining polymers with advanced functions.However,the polymerization of internal alkene and thiol has been rarely used to prepare functional polymers because of large steric hindrance and relatively weak reactivity.In this work,a base-catalyzed click polymerization of thiols and internal olefins was successfully established in air.Notably,the polymerization went smoothly in halogen-containing solvent even without any catalyst via a radical step-growth polymerization.The polymerization enjoys excellent monomer applicability,which affords 16 well-defined polythioethers in high yields(up to 99%)with high molecular weights(Mwup to 19,600),good thermal stability(Td,5%up to 326℃),broadly regulated glass transition temperatures(-24~95℃),and unconventional fluorescence.Via a simple solvent regulation strategy,the vanillin-derived polythioether could be used as a turn-off fluorescence probe for Fe3+ions in DMF/H2O and a turn-on probe for Ag+ions in THF,with low detection limits of 9.15×10^(-7)mol/L and 4.60×10^(-7)mol/L,respectively.Additionally,the detection of Ag+presented a transformation from a clear solution to an emulsion,expanding the application prospects through observing colorimetric and fluorescent dual signals.Thus,this work not only holds significance in establishing an efficient polymerization,but also provides a strategy to prepare sensitive fluorescent probes for multiple metal ions.

文摘Copolymers of fluoroethylene and vinyl ethers(FEVE)are soluble and curable at relatively low temperature,and are used as high-performance coatings and paints.Currently,most market-available FEVE products obtained through solution polymerization contain a large fraction of organic solvent,and hence,volatile organic compound(VOC)emissions cause environmental issues.In this study,the emulsion copolymerization of chlorotrifluoroethylene(CTFE)and vinyl ethers using an environmentally friendly emulsification system to produce waterborne FEVE was investigated.In addition to mixed nonionic and ionic surfactants,macromolecular monomer with double bond and polyoxyethylene segments were used in the emulsification system.The effect of adding macromolecular monomer and polyoxyethylene segment length of the nonionic surfactant on emulsion copolymerization were analyzed.An optimized emulsifier system for FEVE is proposed,and the prepared FEVE latexes exhibit excellent storage stability and film formation ability.
