    Notes: The rate constants of polymerization and cyclization and the equilibrium constants of polymerization are calculated from kinetic data of the anionic oligomerization of methyl methacrylate initiated by methyl α-lithioisobutyrate in THF at 25°C, and of the “disproportionation” of living oligomers. The numeric method reported earlier was improved. The rate constants of cyclization decrease with chain-length, due to increasing steric hindrance. The rate constants of polymerization depend on the concentration of active centres, due to the formation of associates. Rate and equilibrium constants of polymerization decrease with chain-length. This is discussed in terms of intramolecular coordination of the counterion with ester groups of the chain.

    Notes: The effect of lithium tert-butoxide (t-BuOLi) on rate constants and equilibrium constants of reactions involved in the initial stage of the anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in tetrahydrofuran, initiated by methyl α-lithioisobutyrate (P1*) was investigated at 23 ± 3°C. Addition of t-BuOLi decreases the rate constants of initiation and propagation by one order of magnitude; the rate constants of termination by cyclization decrease by two orders of magnitude. This leads to an overall tenfold higher preference of propagation with respect to termination and explains the favourable effect of alkoxide in the polymerization reported earlier. Within experimental error, the equilibrium constant for initiation is independent of alkoxide. The infrared spectra prove the interaction of lithiated MMA-dimer with t-BuOLi and show the changed properties of the Li-enolate group as well as the increased extent of the γ-ester group coordination to lithium.

    Notes: A two-step conventional laboratory process was developed for the synthesis of mono- and difunctional linear and three-arm star tert-chlorine-telechelic polyisobutylenes (PIB) with desired molecular weights (MW) and narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD) by living carbocationic polymerization (LCCP). This polymerization method applies easy to handle operations and chemicals. LCCP of isobutylene (IB), was carried out in CH2Cl2 as solvent and with BCl3 as coinitiator in the first step to obtain soluble low MW PIB prepolymer with narrow MWD. This was followed by addition of hexane, TiCl4 and additional monomer in the second step to prepare PIBs with desired MW and narrow MWD in practically any suitable MW region. Comparison of the one-step and two-step processes is also described.

    Notes: The synthesis of hyperbranched methacrylates was achieved by self-condensing group transfer polymerization of 2-(2-methyl-1-triethylsiloxy-1-propenyloxy)ethyl methacrylate (1). “Back-biting” is shown to be the predominant side reaction. In spite of this, the compact nature of the hyperbranched molecules was demonstrated through SEC-viscosity measurements and comparison with a linear analogue. The degree of branching can be controlled by copolymerization with conventional monomers, e.g. MMA, and the living polymers can be used as macroinitiators for star-shaped polymers.

    Notes: Dehydrochlorination of tert-chlorine-telechelic polyisobutylene with potassium tert-butoxide in refluxing tetrahydrofuran is quantitative after 22 h, but results in ca. 3% endo olefin chain ends which are not reactive in some subsequent functionalization reactions. The formation of these undesired structures is most likely due to simultaneous thermally induced HCl loss. Lower temperatures and longer reaction times led to exclusive formation of external double bonds in some cases but to incomplete dehydrochlorination.

    Notes: The anionic polymerization of tert-butyl methacrylate (TBMA) in tetrahydrofuran, using Na+ and Cs+ as counterions proceeds without side reactions even at room temperature. The resulting molecular weight distributions are nearly monodisperse (Mw/Mn ≤ 1,01). The rate constants for the propagation of ion pairs were measured in the range from + 15 to -100°C. The Arrhenius plots are linear, but different for the two counterions, resulting in the following numerical values for the frequency exponent A and the activation energy Ea: A = 8,5 and Ea = 7,2 kcal/mol = 30 kJ/mol for Na+;A = 9,5 and Ea = 5,6 kcal/mol = 23 kJ/mol for Cs+.The difference between the counterions, which is in contrast to the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA), as well as the lower rate constants are not due to the steric factor of the tert-butyl group but to its positive inductive effect which influences the structure of the propagating macroion pair by decreasing its reactivity. The relative reactivities of the PMMA and PTBMA ion pairs towards MMA and TBMA are estimated.

    Notes: The reaction kinetics for the group transfer polymerization (GTP) of tert-butyl methacrylate (TBMA) using a silyl ketene acetal initiator and a nucleophilic catalyst are investigated. The reaction is shown to be of first order in both monomer and catalyst concentrations. The “livingness” of this system appears to be influenced by the reaction temperature. At temperatures above -20°C, deactivation is observed, with its severity increasing with increasing temperature. This deactivation is attributed to a depletion of catalyst by side reactions. It was demonstrated that reactivation is made possible by the addition of more catalyst. This result is in contrast to the anionic polymerization of TBMA, where no deactivation was observed even at ambient temperature. At temperatures below -20°C no deactivation is observed; however, at these temperatures, the reactions manifest induction periods with lengths increasing with decreasing temperature. The rate constants are lower than those for the GTP of methyl methacrylate (MMA) by a factor of 1,5 to 2. The following Arrhenius parameters were obtained for the propagation rate constants: activation energy, Ea = (19,1 ± 3) kJ/mol, preexponential factor, log10 A = (7,05 ± 0,3). These values are comparable with those obtained for MMA. The molecular weight distributions are similar to those obtained in the GTP of MMA, i.e. the ratio of weight-to number-average molecular weights is rather high for low monomer conversions and narrows to M̄w/M̄n ≥ 1,3 for full conversion. This is attributed to the rates of the catalyst exchange equilibrium.

    Notes: The anionic polymerization of tert-butyl acylate (tBuA) initiated by tert-butyl α-lithioisobutyrate was investigated in THF at 25°C. The individual oligomers were isolated and characterized by UV, IR and NMR spectroscopy. The distribution of products was determined in the range of reaction times 0,02 s ≤ t ≤ 1800 s. The oligomerization is extremely fast. Even after 0,02 s at -30°C, no residual monomer could be detected. After short reaction times the reaction mixture almost exclusively consists of linear oligomers of tBuA. This indicates that there is no termination reaction by Claisen condensation during polymerization. Nevertheless, the molecular weight distribution is rather broad (M̄w/M̄n = 2,15). The very large amount of dimer observed is an indication of its low reactivity. A two-state mechanism is proposed to account for the high polydispersity. Only after longer reaction times side products are formed by Claisen condensation (“back-bitting”). The termination product of the trimer is an enolized cyclic β-ketoester.

    Notes: The kinetics and the molecular weight distributions (MWD) in the anionic polymerization of tert-butyl acrylate (tBuA) in tetrahydrofuran at 23 ± 3°C were investigated. Tert-butyl α-lithioisobutyrate (tBiB-Li) was used as the initiator in the absence and presence of the additives lithium chloride and lithium tert-butoxide (tBuOLi). A flow tube reactor was used which allowed very rapid mixing of reagents, within milliseconds. The polymerization is extremely fast, half-lives being 0,01 s for the system without additive, 0,05 s for LiCl and 3 s for tBuOLi as an additive. The rate of termination was estimated from the strong UV absorption of the enolized β-oxoester end group formed. The number-average degree of polymerization is a linear function of conversion, the absolute values, however, demonstrate initiator efficiencies of only ca. 30%. The MWD's of the polymers formed are narrow (Mw/Mn = 1,35 without additive, M/Mn = 1,08 in the presence of LiCl and Mw/Mn = 1,77 in the presence of tBuOLi). After precipitation these values are reduced to 1,17; 1,06 and 1,32, respectively. Experiments in a stirred tank reactor and in ampoules lead to much broader MWD's. This shows that the rate of mixing has a strong effect on the MWD and is of substantial importance in these rapid polymerizations.
