In 2018,Gan, Weiping; Cao, Xiaosong; Shi, Yi; Zou, Lei; Gao, Haifeng published 《Ligand effect in the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers via copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition polymerization (CuAACP)》.Journal of Polymer Science, Part A: Polymer Chemistry published the findings.Quality Control of Tris((1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)amine The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition polymerization (CuAACP) of AB2 monomers demonstrated a chain-growth mechanism without any external ligand because of the complexation of in situ formed triazole groups with Cu catalysts. In this study, we explored the use of various ligands that affected the polymerization kinetics to tune the polymers’ mol. weights and the degree of branching (DB). Eight ligands were studied, including polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (PEG350, Mn = 350), tris(benzyltriazolylmethyl)amine (TBTA), 2,6-bis(1-undecyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (Py(DBim)2), 2,2′-bipyridyl (bpy), 4,4′-di-n-nonyl-2,2′-bipyridine (dNbpy), N,N,N’,N”,N”-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA), N,N,N’,N”,N”-penta(n-butyl)diethylenetriamine (PBuDETA), and N,N,N’,N”,N”-pentabenzyldiethylenetriamine (PBnDETA). All ligands except PEG350 exhibited stronger coordination with Cu(I) than the polytriazole polymer, which freed the Cu catalyst from polymers and resulted in dominant step-growth polymerization with simultaneous chain-growth feature. Meanwhile, the use of PEG350 ligand retained the confined Cu in the polymer, demonstrating a chain-growth mechanism, but lower polymer mol. weights as compared with the no-external-ligand polymerization Results indicated that aliphatic substituent groups on ligands had little effect on the mol. weights and DB of the polymers, but rigid aromatic substituent groups decreased both values. By varying the ligand species and amounts, hyperbranched polymers with DB value ranging from 0.53 ([TBTA]0/[Cu]0 = 5) to 0.98 ([PMDETA]0/[Cu]0 = 2) have been achieved. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
