a novel diazoacetate monomer (1) carrying tert-butyloxycarboryl (Boc) protected D-prolinol ester was designed and synthesized successfully. Molecular weight-controlled polymerization of 1 using the complex of π-allylPdCl coordinated Wei-phos (LR) ligand gives a series of helical polycarbenes (poly-1ms) with well-defined molecular weights (Mns) and low polydispersity (Mw/Mns). Removing the protecting Boc groups on the D-prolinol ester pendants leads to the formation of helical poly-1m-As, which showed high optical activity. Furthermore, the poly-1m-As showed high catalytic ability on asymmetric Michael addition reaction (up to 76% ee and 94/6 dr). Both the enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity of the Michael addition reaction were increased comparing to D-prolinol as catalyst. Moreover, the helical polycarbene catalyst can be easily recovered and reused at least four times without significant loss of its enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.

New polyaspartic ester (PAE) chain extender named PAE-f was prepared via two steps of Michael addition reactions:(1) Michael addition reaction between 4,4’-methylenebis(2-methyl cyclohexyl amine) (Laromin C260) and excessive dialkyl maleates(DEF); (2) The Michael addition reaction of the residual dialkyl maleates of step (1) with polyester polyamine Jeffamine D230. The two-steps method proposed could reduce the reaction time in comparison with the current one step Michael addition reaction method, thus satisfying the industrialized production. New PAE based polyureas were synthesized by reacting the PAE-f chain extender with aliphatic polyisocyanates 4,4’-diisocyanato dicyclohexylmethane (H12MDI) / polyester polyamine Jeffamine D2000 prepolymer at room temperature. FT-IR and GPC were employed to characterize the new PAE prepared, and the morphology, molecular weight distribution and mechanical properties of the prepared PAE based polyureas were investigated by means of FT-IR and GPC. The FT-IR results indicated that the hydrogen bonding degree of amidogen groups in hard segments of the prepared polyureas were high, the length of hydrogen bonding were 0.305nm~0.306nm. The GPC experimental results show that the weight average molecular weight of the PAE-f based polyureas were 4.95×104~6.05×104,Mw/Mn were 1.65~1.97, the molecular weight distribution were relatively narrow. The mechanical properties demonstrated that the tensile strength were 14.7~22.5MPa, Elongation at break were 306~511%, Yang’s modulus were 67~127MPa, Shore A hardness were 64~83. The mechanical properties confirmed that the polyureas based on PAE-f were kinds of elastomeric materials with satisfied flexibility, strength, module and hardness.

A convenient method for synthesizing 3-amino-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-one via the Michael addition reaction of o-phenylenediamine with dehydroalanine ester derivatives, followed by cyclization, was developed. This simple method was used to obtain a variety of N-substituted 3-amino-1,5-benzodiazepine-2-ones in one pot with good yields.

AbstractThis article describes a study on the Michael addition reaction of cyclohexanone to nitroolefins catalyzed by the chiral secondary amine (1S,4S)-2-tosyl- 2,5-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane. Reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions to make them more environmentally friendly. Initially, the observed diastereoand enantioselectivities were moderate to good, but were significantly improved by lowering the reaction temperature. Furthermore, a variety of chiral acids were also tested as co-catalysts in both of their enantiomeric forms, which revealed that (R)-mandelic acid affords excellent results in terms of yield and stereoselectivity. Monitoring the reaction by MS-TOF allowed for the detection of key reaction intermediates, and a reasonable reaction mechanism in which both catalysts are involved is proposed.
