Amine-terminated poly (L-lactide) (NH2-PLLA) with various chain lengths were successfully synthesized by sequential tert-butyl-N-(3-hydroxypropyl) carbamate initiated bulk ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of L-lactide (L-LA) in the presence of Stannous(II) 2-ethylhexanoate (Sn(Oct)2) and deprotection of theN-tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group at the end of the polymer chain. The polymers obtained were characterized by FT-IR,1H NMR, and GPC method. NH2-PLLA thus prepared was used to initiate the polymerization of ω-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine-N-carboxyanhydride (Lys (Z)-NCA), and the result confirmed the high nucleophilicity of the terminal amine group. This method was not only suitable for the preparation of low molecular weight NH2-PLLA, but also quite efficient in the synthesis of high molecular weight samples.

Synthesis of Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) by the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of L-lactides in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) with co-solvent were studied. Effects of kinds of co-solvent on the molecular weight (MW) and the molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the resultant polymers were investigated by the gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The resultant polymers were also characterized with1H NMR,13C NMR and FT-IR. It was found that PLLA with high purity and almost without racemization could be obtained by this technology and the acetone is the best co-solvent for this kind of polymerization. By using stannous octoate as initiator and acetone as co-solvent, PLLA having a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) near to 9×104and polydispersity index (PDI) of 1.7 was successfully synthesized.

AbstractHigh molecular weight α,ω-bis(3-aminopropyldiethoxylsilane) poly(tri fluoropropylmethyl)siloxanes (APTFPMS) were prepared via a “one-step” process, based on the ring-opening polymerization of 1,3,5-tris(trifluoropropylmethyl) cyclotrisiloxane (F3) in the presence of water and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). GPC, FT-IR and 1H NMR confirmed the structure of the polymers. It was found that the amount of APTES had significant influence on the reaction rate and the molecular weights of polymers decreased with the increasing amount of water. It was probably because both water and the amino group of APTES favoured generation of hydroxyl ions, which efficiently initiate the polymerization of F3 to achieve APTFPMS. In order to verify this mechanism, another “two-step” process was also performed: Firstly the α,ω-dihydroxylated poly(trifluoropropylmethyl) siloxanes were synthesized from F3 catalyzed by both diaminoethane and water, then reacted with APTES to achieve APTFPMS. All the syntheses had high yields and the molecular weight of the polymers ranged from 2000 to 25000.

Initial Discovery

Ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of strained ring-tilted metallocenophanes can be achieved thermally, via anionic or cationic initiation, or by the use of transition-metal catalysts and provides access to a wide range of high molecular weight (Mw = 105-106, Mn > 105) poly(metallocenes). These materials possess a variety of interesting properties and many are very easy to prepare. This article provides an overview of our work, giving background to and an account of the initial discovery, and discusses work on the synthesis and properties of new poly(metallocenes) and related materials with particular emphasis on recent research directions.Key words: metallocene, ring-opening polymerization, ferrocenophane, organometallic polymer.
