    Notes: Abstract Experimental infection with enterovirus type 71 (EV71) induced death in neonatal mice in an age- and dose-dependent manner. The mortality rate was 100% following intraperitoneal inoculation 1-day-old ICR mice and this gradually decreased as the age at the time of inoculation increased (60% in 3-day-old mice and no deaths occurred in mice older than 6 days of age). A lethal dose greater than 108 PFU was necessary. Lethargy, failure to gain weight, rear limb tremors and paralysis were observed in the infected mice before death. EV71 was isolated from various tissues of the dead mice. Using a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction technique with a specific primer pair, a 332-bp product was detected in the tissues that produced a culture positive for EV71. Protection against EV71 challenge in neonatal mice was demonstrated following passive transfer of serum from actively immunized adult mice 1 day after inoculation with the virus. Pups from hyperimmune dams were resistant to EV71 challenge. Additionally, maternal immunization with a formalin-inactivated whole-virus vaccine prolonged the survival of pups after EV71 lethal challenge.

    Notes: Abstract Using minimum exposure techniques, it is feasible to perform high resolution electron microscopy on the α-cristobalite phase of (Si0.9 Ge0.1)O2, which is extremely radiation sensitive. Such images reveal atomic scale information of twins and tridymite-like stacking faults on (1 1 1)β planes, as well as of domain boundaries resulting from the β→α transition. Polytype structures are formed in certain cases. Morphological features suggest that the phase transformation cristobalite → tridymite proceeds by means of a zonal dislocation mediated synchro-shear process on (1 1 1)β planes; the geometry of this process is analyzed.

    The need for a shared database infrastructure: combining X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy (2000)

    Notes: Abstract Advances in structural biology are opening greater opportunities for understanding biological structures from the cellular to the atomic level. Particularly promising are the links that can be established between the information provided by electron microscopy and the atomic structures derived from X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Combining such different kinds of structural data can result in novel biological information on the interaction of biomolecules in large supramolecular assemblies. As a consequence, the need to develop new databases in the field of structural biology that allow for an integrated access to data from all the experimental techniques is becoming critical. Pilot studies performed in recent years have already established a solid background as far as the basic information that an integrated macromolecular structure database should contain, as well as the basic principles for integration. These efforts started in the context of the BioImage project, and resulted in a first complete database prototype that provided a versatile platform for the linking of atomic models or X-ray diffraction data with electron microscopy information. Analysis of the requirements needed to combine data at different levels of resolution have resulted in sets of specifications that make possible the integration of all these different types in the context of a web environment. The case of a structural study linking electron microscopy and X-ray data, which is already contained within the BioImage data base and in the Protein Data Bank, is used here to illustrate the current approach, while a general discussion highlights the urgent need for integrated databases.

    Evidence for stable grain boundary melt films in experimentally deformed olivine-orthopyroxene rocks (2000)

    Notes: Abstract The microstructure of olivine-olivine grain boundaries has been studied in experimentally deformed (1200–1227 °C, 300 MPa) partially molten olivine and olivine-orthopyroxene rocks. In-situ melting produced ∼1 vol% melt in all samples studied. Grain boundary analyses were carried out using a number of transmission electron microscopy techniques. The grain boundary chemistry in undeformed olivine-orthopyroxene starting material showed evidence for the presence of an intergranular phase along some, but not all, of the olivine-olivine boundaries. In the deformed samples, ultrathin Si-rich, Al- and Ca-bearing amorphous films have been observed along all investigated olivine-olivine grain boundaries. The chemistry of the grain boundaries, which is considered to be indicative for the presence of a thin film, was measured with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and energy-filtering imaging. The amorphous nature of the films was confirmed with diffuse dark field imaging, Fresnel fringe imaging, and high-resolution electron microscopy. The films range in thickness from 0.6 to 3.0 nm, and EDX analyses show that the presence of Al and Ca is restricted to this ultrathin film along the grain boundaries. Because thin melt films have been observed in all the samples, they are thought to be stable features of the melt microstructure in deformed partially molten rocks. The transition from the occasional presence of films in the undeformed starting material to the general occurrence of the films in deformed materials suggests that deformation promotes the formation and distribution of the films. Alternatively, hot-pressing may be too short for films to develop along all grain boundaries. A difference in creep strength between the studied samples could not be attributed to grain boundary melt films, as these have been found in all deformed samples. However, a weakening effect of grain boundary melt films on olivine rheology could not be ruled out due to the lack of confirmed melt-film free experiments.

    Biocompatibility of MPC: in vivo evaluation for clinical application (2000)

    Notes: Abstract Biocompatibility is important to assure a mild body reaction to an implanted device and its long-term stability and functionality. In diabetes research, subcutaneously implanted glucose monitoring systems need biocompatible surfaces for long-term application. The biocompatibility of poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine-co-n-butyl methacrylate) (MPC), a material similar to the phospholipid layer of a cell membrane, was compared in vivo with the biocompatibility of polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and cuprophane (CUP). Needle-type glucose sensors and hollow-fiber probes used for microdialysis were coated with these four different biomaterials and implanted subcutaneously in 18 rats and 7 healthy volunteers. At set intervals, the implants and, in the case of the rats, also the surrounding tissue were removed and characterized by light and electron microscopy. MPC-coated sensors and hollow-fiber probes showed smooth and thin deposits in flat layers, whereas the surface deposits on PU- and PVA-coated sensors and those on CUP hollow-fiber probes appeared as rough, irregular, and dense attachments of aggregated cells and protein. This study confirmed results from earlier in vitro tests by showing the biocompatibility and reliability of MPC. Even though the amount of protein and cells attached to the MPC surface was not as low as expected from in vitro experiments, the biocompatibility and long-term stability of the implanted devices were superior to those of PU, PVA, and CUP.

    Notes: Abstract The behavior of individaals and their responses to external stimuli are controlled by the microsocial environment, which for most mammals is associated with dominant-subordinate relationships. Physiological and behavioral differences between dominant and subordinate individuals may be ‘primary’ (genetically determined) or ‘secondary’ (due to position in the group's hierarchical structure). A series of experiments was conducted to investigate the physiological (pain response threshold), immunological (thymus, spleen weights, primary immune response), and behavioral (motor activity, behavior in a shuttle box test) characteristics of dominant and subordinate individuals in groups of three laboratory mice formed on the basis of linear hierarchy. Assessment of the effects of group conditions was made using a conditioned reflex location preference test. The results showed: 1) there are no statistically significant differences in physiological and behavioral (except for motor activity) parameters between dominant and subordinate mice; 2) co-housing of dominant and subordinate individuals in groups with stable hierarchical relationships was not aversive for them.

    Notes: Abstract The cometary Leonid meteoroids represent a size range in between largest carbon-richIDPs and the smallest CI meteorites. Their dustball structure and chemistry offer anopportunity to constrain hierarchical dust accretion inferred from petrologic studies ofaggregate and cluster IDPs. The Leonid shower meteoroids of known ``comet ejection''ages provide an opportunity to study space weathering of cometary dust over periodsof up to several hundred years. The meteors and aggregate and cluster IDPs displaycontinuous thermal modification of organics and volatile element (Na, K-bearing phases), that occur as discrete minerals and amorphous solids each different response during kinetically controlled ablation. Leonid meteoroids are not excessively Na-rich. The occurrences of Leonid meteors can now be accurate predicted and combined withknowledge better models for the settling rates, collections of surviving dust becomea comet nucleus-sampling mission.

    Notes: Abstract Human brain (globus pallidus) and liver tissues were investigated by means of electron microscopy (EM), Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) and SQUID magnetometry techniques. Based on MS measurements, the iron present was identified to be in the ferritin-like form (61–88%) and in the form of a low-spin iron species (the balance). Its overall concentration was estimated as 1.5(3) mg in the brain and 2.4(5) mg in the liver, per gram of lyophilized tissue. The average core diameter was determined by EM measurements to be equal to 7.5(1.3) nm for the liver and 3.3(5) nm for the brain. Magnetization measurements carried out between 5 and 300 K yielded an estimation of an average blocking temperature, KT BL, as equal to 6.7 K and 8.5 K for the liver and the brain, respectively. From the dependence of KT BL on the external magnetic field it was concluded that the ferritin-like cores in the studied samples can be regarded as non-interacting particles. Finally, the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy constant was determined to be 6×103 J/m3 for the liver and 4×104 J/m3 for the brain.

    Notes: Abstract  The descending contralateral movement detector (DCMD), an identified descending interneuron in the brain of the locust Schistocerca gregaria has been investigated by using light and electron microscopy. We describe the fine structure, distribution and numbers of synapes that it receives from another identified brain neuron, the lobular giant movement detector (LGMD), and from unidentified neurons. The DCMD dendrites emerging from the integrative segment vary in form and number between individuals and sexes but always form a flattened dendritic domain. The arborizations and the integrative segment appear to be exclusively postsynaptic. Two types of synaptic contacts (Type 1 and 2) onto the DCMD can be discerned as having either round (Type 1) or pleiomorphic synaptic vesicles (Type 2) and by large (Type 1) or small (Type 2) subsynaptic appositions. Contact zones of Type 1 synapses are smaller than those of Type 2. LGMD-synapses are of Type 1 and occur intermingled with presynaptic sites of unidentified units. Some branches of the DCMD receiving input from unidentified units are devoid of contacting LGMD processes. Synapses of both types are randomly distributed over the DCMD integrative segment and at fibres with similar sizes.Type 1 synapses are much more frequent than Type 2 synapses and their number is negatively correlated with fibre diameter. For a whole DCMD dendritic arborization, a total of 8500 active zones of chemical synapses has been calculated, including a mininum of 2250 LGMD-synapses and about 1000 Type 2 synapses. The DCMD may thus receive a considerable amount of input from as yet unidentified neurons.

    Notes: Abstract  Apoptosis of male germ cells is a widespread but little-understood phenomenon in many animal species. The elucidation of its mechanisms could be useful in the understanding of male infertility. We have examined the distribution of dying cells with the terminal transferase-mediated nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method and by an electron-microscopic procedure in the testes of 10 mouse strains, viz., C57BL/10 (B10), SL/NiA (SL), C57BL/6 (B6), C3H/He (C3H), BALB/c (BALB), DBA2 (DBA), CBA/J (CBA), MRL/MpJ-+/+ (M+), MRL/MpJ-lpr/lpr (lpr), and wild-type NJL mice (Mus musculus musculus). In the testes of the B10, NJL, SL, B6, C3H, BALB, DBA, and CBA mice, very few TUNEL-positive cells are distributed in the seminiferous tubules, whereas in the testes of the M+ and lpr mice, many TUNEL-positive cells, which are restricted to stage XII seminiferous tubules, have been identified. The most important finding is that many metaphases of meiotic spermatocytes show a marked TUNEL-positive reaction. Some metaphases show apoptotic morphology electron-microscopically. These results suggest that the testes of MRL strains will provide a useful model for the study of the mechanism of metaphase-specific apoptosis in meiotic spermatocytes.

    Notes: Abstract Histochemical examination of 1-μm tissue sections from the dorsal nerve plexus of the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris, reveals multiple brown intraneuronal granules. These granules contain material morphologically and histochemically consistent with neuromelanin. When viewed with transmission electron microscopy, these were seen as single membrane-enclosed biphasic granules with diameters of 370–730 nm. Exposure of L. terrestris to high-level environmental oxygen resulted in an increase in the number of neuromelanin-like pigment granules within the neurons of the circular muscle layer. As measured by ortho-phenylenediamine hydrochloride, the endogenous peroxidase activity of extracts from worms incubated in high-level environmental oxygen was 51% more than controls. The endogenous peroxidase activity was localized in situ with 3,3-diaminobenzidine (DAB) and was found to increase in and around the neuromelanin-like pigment-containing neurons within the circular muscle layer. These studies suggest that the nerve net of L. terrestris may serve as a model to study the role of neuromelanin production in oxidative stress and its relationship to endogenous peroxidases.

    Op/op mice defective in production of functional colony-stimulating factor-1 lack macrophages in muscularis externa of the small intestine (1999)

    Notes: Abstract The osteopetrotic (op/op) mutant mouse possesses an inactivating mutation in the colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) gene, which results in the absence of certain macrophages and in osteopetrosis, following a lack of osteoclasts. Studies of the op/op mouse indicate that CSF-1-dependent tissue macrophages may belong to a trophic and/or scavenger subpopulation, which through their effect on other cell types can significantly affect tissue functions, and that cells which are CSF-1 independent have antigen presentation and immunological functions.We have previously identified a cell system of regularly distributed macrophages in the muscularis externa of the small intestine and wanted to extend these studies to the op/op mouse.The present investigations with light- and electron-microscopic methods using fluorescent dextran, methylene blue and immunohistochemistry (F4/80, anti-kit receptor, anti-CD3, anti-CD45R/B220) show that macrophages are absent from the muscle layers, with only an occasional macrophage present in the subserosa. In the lamina propria and submucosa, macrophage numbers are reduced. In all other respects the muscularis externa appears normal, including normal organization and number of interstitial cells of Cajal. Control and op/op mice both lack cells expressing CD3 (T lymphocytes), CD45R/B220 (B lymphocytes) and mast cells in the muscularis externa. This leaves the muscularis externa macrophages as the most likely source of local cytokine production under such conditions as postoperative ileus and intussusception in infants, where the muscularis externa appears to be one target of cytokines. We conclude that the lack of macrophages, combined with the preservation of otherwise normal structure, will make the op/op mouse a valuable model by which to assess the functions and relative importance of the muscularis externa macrophages in relation to intestinal motility under normal and pathological conditions.

    Caveolin and its cellular and subcellular immunolocalisation in lung alveolar epithelium: implications for alveolar epithelial type I cell function (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Caveolae are flask-shaped invaginations of the plasmalemma which pinch off to form discrete vesicles within the cell cytoplasm. Biochemically, caveolae may be distinguished by the presence of a protein, caveolin, that is the principal component of filaments constituting their striated cytoplasmic coat. Squamous alveolar epithelial type I (ATI) cells, comprising approximately 95% of the surface area of lung alveolar epithelium, possess numerous plasmalemmal invaginations and cytoplasmic vesicles ultrastructurally indicative of caveolae. However, an ultrastructural appearance does not universally imply the biochemical presence of caveolin. This immunocytochemical study has utilised a novel application of confocal laser scanning and electron microscopy unequivocally to localise caveolin-1 to ATI cells. Further, cytoplasmic vesicles and flask-shaped membrane invaginations in the ATI cell were morphologically identified whose membranes were decorated with anti-caveolin-1 immunogold label. Coexistent with this, however, in both ATI and capillary endothelial cells could be seen membrane invaginations morphologically characteristic of caveolae, but which lacked associated caveolin immunogold label. This could reflect a true biochemical heterogeneity in populations of morphologically similar plasmalemmal invaginations or an antigen threshold requirement for labelling. The cuboidal alveolar epithelial type II cell (ATII) also displayed specific label for caveolin-1 but with no ultrastructural evidence for the formation of caveolae. The biochemical association of caveolin with ATI cell vesicles has broad implications for the assignment and further study of ATI cell function.

    Notes: Abstract  In transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE), such as scrapie in animals and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, the central event is the conversion of a host-encoded amyloidogenic protein (PrPc) into an abnormal isoform (PrPsc) that accumulates as amyloid in TSE brain. PrPc is a membrane sialoglycoprotein synthesized in the central nervous system and elsewhere. We have examined the ultrastructural localization of PrPc in numerous hamster and some human extracerebral tissues, by means of a post-embedding electron-microscopic method combined with immunogold labeling. In stomach, intestine, lung, and kidney from hamsters, and in stomach, kidney, and spleen from humans, immunogold labeling specific for PrPc is observed on various cellular substructures related to secretory pathways: Golgi apparatus, secretory globules, and plasma membrane. In mucous epithelial cells of stomach and intestine, PrPc appears to be concentrated in secretory globules, suggesting a role for PrPc in the secretory function of the digestive tract. The secretory aspect of PrPc may be a key to understanding the physiopathological mechanisms underlying TSE.

    Notes: Abstract  The evidence for vesicular transport as a mechanism for secretion by human basophils is reviewed. Initially, direct electron-microscopic inspection of experimentally produced and sequentially biopsied contact allergy skin lesions revealed a unique form of secretion termed piecemeal degranulation, characterized by the slow emptying of secretory granule contents (with retention of empty containers) in the absence of extrusion of entire granules. Budding of small vesicles to/from secretory granules was observed, and cytoplasmic vesicles were abundant. A generalized degranulation model was proposed to unify classical regulated secretion and this new form of secretion. Investigation of the mechanism(s) of secretion from human basophils required the development of numerous tools and resources. Chief among these were: (a) isolation and purification of circulating basophils; (b) identification of specific growth factors to increase the supply of this rare granulocyte; (c) understanding of secretogogue mechanisms and reliable analyses of secreted basophil products; and (d) development of ultrastructural preparations allowing imaging of small vesicles and quantifiable small electron-dense tags for granule materials in small vesicles. Applications of these tools to well-defined models of basophil secretion have established a role for vesicles as a mechanism for effecting secretion of histamine and the Charcot-Leyden crystal protein from activated human basophils.

    Notes: Abstract Specific populations of hepatic sinusoidal cells were stained with monoclonal antibodies that recognize monocytes/macrophages (ED1), tissue macrophages (Kupffer cells) (ED2), MHC class II (Ia) antigen (MRC OX6), and dendritic cells/γ,δ T-cells (MRC OX62) and analyzed by light and electron microscopy. The majority of ED1+ and/or ED2+ cells were localized to the hepatic parenchyma, whereas OX6+ and/or OX62+ cells were more densely distributed within Glisson’s sheath than in the hepatic parenchyma. Double-immunoperoxidase staining of normal liver for ED1, ED2, and OX6 identified dendritic cells (DC) of two different phenotypes, ED1+ED2–OX6+ and ED1–ED2–OX6+. DC can be classified into three different types based on ultrastructural characteristics. The first type (type I) is characterized by one or more long cytoplasmic processes and a well-developed lysosomal system. The second type (type II) has an inconspicuous lysosomal system, abundant hyaloplasm, and characteristic short cytoplasmic processes. The third type (type I–II) has cytologic features intermediate between those of type I and type II DC. At the electron-microscopic level, these three cell types are found in the sinusoidal lumen, whereas the majority of type II DC are located in the space of Disse and Glisson’s sheath. Furthermore, some OX6-labeled elongated DC appeared to traverse the lumen of sinusoids through endothelial pores to enter the space of Disse. One hour after intravenous injection of latex particles (0.81 μm in diameter), numerous latex-laden dendritic cells (ED1+OX6+, type I and type I–II) were detected in the lumen of hepatic sinusoids, but not in the space of Disse or Glisson’s sheath. These findings suggest that normal rat liver contains resident dendritic cells which downregulate phagocytic activity and mature into potent accessory cells during migration from the portal vein toward the central vein. These DC then traverse the sinusoidal lumen to the hepatic lymph system via the space of Disse.

    The Menschutkin reaction of benzyl p-toluenesulfonates with N,N-dimethylanilines. Evidence for the duality of SN1 and SN2 mechanisms (1998)

    Notes: The rate data for the Menschutkin reaction between strongly activated Z-substituted benzyl p-toluenesulfonates and Y-substituted N,N-dimethylanilines in acetonitrile at 35 °C fit the equation, kobs  =  k1 + k2 [DMA], which is consistent with concurrent first- and second-order processes. The k1 and k2 values for each substrate were separated based on the above equation. The SN1 rate constant, k1, is unaffected by the nature of the nucleophile, whereas the SN2 rate constant, k2, increased with the electron-donating substituent of the N,N-dimethylaniline. The substituent effect on the k1 values is linearly correlated by the Yukawa-Tsuno equation with ρ  =  -5.2 and r  =  1.3. The unimolecular reaction can be regarded as a classical SN1 mechanism. In contrast, that on the k2 values shows an upward curvature when analyzed by the Brown σ+ treatment. These results are ascribed to the simultaneous and independent occurrence of SN1 and SN2 mechanisms in the present Menschutkin reaction. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Solution enthalpies of n-hexane, acetone, butan-2-one and octan-2-one in a series of tetrachloromethane-acetonitrile mixtures and the carbonyl stretching absorption frequencies in the IR spectra of these ketones were determined. It was found that over the whole range of concentrations (varying from neat tetrachloromethane up to neat acetonitrile) the solvation enthalpy of these compounds can be obtained additively from the contributions of the alkyl and carbonyl fragments. The solvent effect on the solvation enthalpy of the carbonyl group was found to be satisfactorily correlated with the corresponding IR frequency shifts of the C=O group. It was also found that the sensitivities of the carbonyl IR frequencies to the solvent composition are different for various ketones. From both IR and calorimetric data, the preferential solvation parameters were evaluated. The differences between the IR spectroscopic and calorimetric data are discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: In an effort to model solute-solvent interactions, the C=O stretching frequencies of five 1-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones and four other carbonyl-containing compounds were measured for 30 common solvents. These were then correlated with four empirical parameter sets and one theoretical (computational) parameter set. While an empirical parameter set gave the best correlation equations, the theoretical parameter equations are physically and statistically significant. Solvent volume, polarizability and hydrogen bond donor acidity (capacity) terms are significant in the correlation equations. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The P - S bond cleavage process in the hydroperoxidolysis of a model system for the nerve agent VX was studied using ab initio and semiempirical molecular orbital methods. Aqueous solvation effects were included through single-point calculations using the semiempirical SM5.2PD/A continuum solvation model and geometries optimized at the HF/MIDI! level of theory. The predominant pathway for P - S bond cleavage involves pseudorotation of a low-energy trigonal bipyramidal intermediate followed by apical ligand ejection. In aqueous solution, the free energy barriers for these processes are found to be 14.3 and 4.6 kcal mol-1, respectively, with electronic energies calculated at the MP2/cc-pVDZ//HF/MIDI! level of theory. By comparison with another continuum model of solvation (PCM), it is concluded that the SM5.2PD/A model performs well even for hypervalent phosphorus species, in spite of not having included any such molecules in the model's parameterization set. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: N-Methyl-N-phenyl-tert-butylsulfenamide (MPSA) and morpholinyl-tert-butylsulfenamide (MOSA) were thermolyzed in a stirred-flow reactor at temperatures of 340-390 °C and pressures of 7-13 Torr, using toluene as carrier gas, at residence times of 0.3-1.3 s. Isobutene was formed in 99% yield through first-order reactions having the following Arrhenius parameters (A,s-1, Ea, kJ mol-1): MPSA, log A  =  12.41 ± 0.02, Ea  =  158.8 ± 0.2; MOSA, log A  =  12.91 ± 0.22, Ea  =  159 ± 3. It is proposed that the elimination of isobutene takes place by unimolecular reaction mechanisms involving polar, four-center cyclic transition states, forming S-unsubstituted thiohydroxylamines as co-products. Thermochemical parameters, estimated by semiempirical AM1 calculations, are reported for the latter and for the parent molecules. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Acidities and bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of the N-H bond in two phenylsulfenylamides, PhSNHBz and PhSNH-t-Bu, and four phenylsulfenylanilides, 4-GC6H4NHSPh, where G  =  MeO, H, Br and CN, were measured in order to compare the effects of substituents on acidities and BDEs of N - H bonds with those of C - H bonds. The effects of PhS groups on acidities and BDEs in a series of C - H acids were found to be comparable to those on acidities and BDEs of PhS in a similar series of N - H acids. Comparisons were also made of the effects of changing the oxidation state of sulfur in the series PhS, PhSO and PhSO2 on the acidities and BDEs of adjacent N - H and C - H bonds in weak acids. Hammett-type plots of pKHA values for phenyl benzyl sulfones (4-GC6H4CH2SO2Ph) and phenylsulfenylanilides (4-GC6H4NHSPh) were linear vs σp- values. A linear plot was obtained and explained for a plot of BDE of the N - H bonds in remotely substituted phenylsulfonylanilides with σ+ values. Plots of BDEs vs Eox(A-) were also linear for 4-substituted phenylsulfenylanilides (4-GC6H4NHSPh), phenylsulfonylanilides (4-GC6H4NHSO2Ph) and phenyl benzyl sulfones (4-GC6H4CH2SO2Ph). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The prototropic tautomerism of 8-azaadenine (azaade) was studied theoretically by means of ab initio methods, in both the gas phase and aqueous solution. A number of tautomeric forms were not included in the calculations after applying a stepwise elimination procedure based on both AM1 and HF/6-31G* energy values. The tautomers 9H-azaade, 8H-azaade and 7H-azaade survived to this elimination and their optimized geometries and energies were calculated at the MP2/6-31*//HF/6-31G* level. To include the solvent effects, two self-consistent reaction field method were used: (1) Onsager's SCRF with multipolar expansion up to the hexadecapolar term and (2) the isodensity polarizable continuum method (IPCM). Both methods produce similar results, although the latter represents better the situation in aqueous solution. The stability order in solution, 8H- 〉 9H- 〉 7H-azaade, differs slightly from that found in the gas phase, implying that in general the electrostatic effects in solution are important, but the intrinsic stability of these species in the gas phase overcomes the solvent effect. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Cyclic voltamograms of the solvatochromic dye 5-nitro-5′-dimethylamino-2,2′-bisthiophene (1), introduced recently as a sensitive π* probe, were recorded in different solvents. An EPR spectrum of the anionic radical of 1 in DMSO was obtained and compared with other spectra of analogous substituted bisthiophene radicals. It was found that the presence of a donor- acceptor pair of substituents in 1-⋅ reduces significantly the rotational barrier of the radical compared with the unsubstituted bithienyl radical anion 2-⋅. This is the result of an electronic repulsion between the donor ring fragment and the added electron in the coplanar radical, which does not exist in 2-⋅. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography [LiChrosorb RP-18,UV detection at 254 nm and acetonitrile-water (86:14,v/v) as mobile phase] was applied to studies of the host-guest complexation of tetraalkylcalix[4]resorcinareneoctols and their upper rim phosphoryl, sulfonyl and dialkylaminomethyl derivatives with some aromatic guests in the mobile phase. It was shown that the formation of the inclusion complexes results in changes in the retention of aromatic guests and improves their separation. Stability constants of the complexes were calculated from the dependences of the l/k′ values of the aromatic guest on the concentration of the calix[4]resorcinarene in the mobile phase. The molecular structure of 4,6,16,18-tetrahydroxy-10,12,22,24-tetrakis(dipropoxyphosphoryloxy)-2,8,14,20-tetramethylcalix[4]resorcinarene (12) was determined.

    Notes: Rate coefficients were measured for the base-catalysed hydrolysis of a series of substituted 3-(phenoxy- or thiophenoxymethylene)-(Z)-1(3H)-isobenzfuranones (3-phenoxy- or thiophenoxymethylenephthalides) in 70% (v/v) aqueous dioxane at 30.0 °C, in addition to the carbonyl stretching frequencies in chloroform and tetrachloromethane following deconvolution and band separation, when required. The Hammett reaction constants for the alkaline hydrolysis of the 3-/4-substituted phenoxy and thiophenoxy series are ca 0.75 and 1.10, respectively. These results are related to electrostatic field and resonance effects. Successful correlations between the carbonyl stretching frequencies and substituent constants and the rates of alkaline hydrolysis were found. Computational studies using the semi-empirical AM1 method correctly model both the details of the mechanistic pathway and the substituent effects. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    A new approach to the theoretical estimation of inductive constants (1998)

    Notes: A new model of the inductive effect is proposed, allowing highly accurate theoretical calculations of inductive constants for a diversity of substituents, using a simple and readily available system of mathematics. According to this approach, the inductive effect of a substituent is considered in terms of the additive influence of its constituent atoms. A constant inherent capacity for inductive interaction with a reactive center (with a four-coordinate carbon atom chosen for such a center), represented by an atomic constant σA, is ascribed to each atom. Values of σA for a wide variety of atoms are determined, and their physical meaning is revealed to elucidate to a certain extent the physical nature of the inductive effect. In addition, the proposed model permits the convenient use in calculations of group constants σG characterizing the inductive power of groups. Values of σG are determined for molecular fragments that are most widely dealt with in organic chemistry, and the use of σA or σG constants and of their superposition is shown to have, in most cases, little or no effect on the accuracy and reproducibility of the results obtained. It is also shown that, in terms of the developed approach, the inductive effect of a substituent is closely associated with its conformation. Theoretical inductive constants were calculated for 427 organic, aromatic, organometallic and charged substituents, and they showed perfect correlation with the corresponding experimental values. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The kinetics of the oxidation of mandelic acid (MA) by permanganate in aqueous alkaline medium at a constant ionic strength of 1.0 mol dm-3 were studied spectrophotometrically. The reaction shows first-order kinetics in [permanganate ion] and fractional order dependences in [MA] and [alkali]. Addition of products, manganate and aldehyde have no significant effect on the reaction rate. An increase in ionic strength and a decrease in dielectric constant of the medium increase the rate. The oxidation process in alkaline medium under the conditions employed in the present investigation proceeds first by formation of an alkali permanganate complex, which combines with mandelic acid to form another complex. The latter decomposes slowly followed by a fast reaction between the free radical of mandelic acid and another molecule of permanganate to give products. The reaction constants involved in the mechanism were derived. There is good agreement between the observed and calculated rate constants under different experimental conditions. The reaction was studied at different temperatures and activation parameters were computed with respect to the slow step of the proposed mechanism. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Photo-reactions of tetrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (1) with benzene (2a) and substituted benzenes (2b-f) in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) gave 2-(2-, 3- and 4-substituted anilino)pyrimidines (3-5) together with 2-aminopyridine (6) and biphenyl (7) or diarylmethanes (8b, 8c and 8e). From the effect of heavy-atom solvent on the reactions, it is reasonable to assume that 3-5 are formed via a singlet species, but 6-8 via a triplet species. The intermediacy of 2-pyrimidylnitrenium ion is consistent with the evidence derived by the above effect, by a Hammett plot with ρ = -2.9 and by effects of solvent nucleophilicity and counter-anions. The selective exocyclic N-arylation giving 3-5 is discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Photo-induced electron donor-acceptor reactions between 1-cyanonaphthalene (CNN) and norbornadiene (N) generate products of several structure types. Methanol adducts (1-3) formed in polar solvents are rationalized via the radical cation, N+·, and stereospecific (exo-) nucleophilic attack by methanol. In less polar solvents, CNN and N form [2 + 2]-cycloadducts, exclusively on the exo-face of N. In non-polar solvents containing methanol, CNN, N and methanol combine to form 1:1:1 adducts, containing the sensitizer on the endo- and the methoxy groups on the exo-face. The formation of these products is rationalized via the trapping of encounter complexes of different geometries. Any rearrangement of the norbornenyl system can be eliminated, since neither tricyclyl nor 7-methoxynorbornenyl structures are formed. Apparently, the alcohol captures an endo-encounter complex of CNN and N by attack from the exo-face, similar to the attack of methanol on N+·. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Semiempirical, ab initio and DFT investigations on the mechanism of the Diels-Alder reactions of a set of masked dienes (ring-fused dienes), viz. o-quinodimethane, anthracene and α-vinylnaphthalene, with ethylene, and reactions of α-vinylnaphthalene with maleic anhydride and p-benzoquinone were performed with a view to understanding the role of masking factors on the activation and reaction energies. The reactions were found to occur in a concerted fashion through synchronous transition states (TSs) in the first two reactions and through asynchronous TS in the other case. Of the compounds studied, o-quinodimethane is the most reactive diene both in a kinetic and a thermodynamic sense. α-Vinylnaphthalene reacts faster with maleic anhydride than p-benzoquinone, as expected, and two possible stereoselective TSs, one endo and the other exo, have been located for the reactions of α-vinylnaphthalene with the above dienophiles. Calculations show that the relative gain or loss of aromatic stabilization of the benzonoid ring in the transition state and in the product seems to play a major role in the kinetic and thermodynamic control of these reactions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Infrared spectra of all isomers of polymethyl-substituted benzoic acids were recorded in the carbonyl and hydroxyl regions in tetrachloromethane at various concentrations and interpreted in terms of conformation. According to a plot of ν(C=O) of the monomeric form vs Hammett substituent constants σ, these compounds may be classified into two classes. Derivatives with none or only one methyl group in the ortho position are concluded to exist in an equilibrium of two planar conformations, unless the equilibrium is degenerate. Derivatives with two ortho-situated methyl groups are concluded to take up one non-planar conformation. These findings are supported by the shape of the hydroxyl and carbonyl bands, which are unsymmetrical in the former class, although they could not be reliably separated into bands pertinent to the individual conformers. This conclusion is at variance with the common interpretation which has invariably ascribed to these and similar ortho derivatives non-planar conformations with a variable torsional angle. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Barrier heights for P - C bond homolysis in P-hydroxy-P-methyl-P,P-dioxophosphoranyl and P,P,P-trihydroxy-P-methylphosphoranyl were calculated using well correlated levels of electronic structure theory. The best estimate for the difference in barriers between the two indicates that homolysis is more facile for P,P,P-trihydroxy-P-methylphosphoranyl by roughly 9 kcal mol-1. This result suggests that bacterial pathways leading to P - C bond cleavage in organophosphonate derivatives will preferentially proceed via initial one-electron reduction of substrates rather than oxidation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The peculiarities of [8+2] cycloaddition reactions of indolizines with dienophiles are reviewed. Quantum chemical SINDO1, AM1 and ab initio calculations of transition states were performed for [8+2] cycloaddition reactions of indolizine and 6-nitroindolizine with a series of alkenes with donor and acceptor groups. The calculations predict a dipolar cycloaddition mechanism (electrophilic addition and ring closure) for reactions of indolizine and 6-nitroindolizine with nitroethylene. For the reaction of 6-nitroindolizine with N,N-dimethylaminoethylene, the predicted mechanism corresponds to a previously unknown ‘inverse’ dipolar cycloaddition (nucleophilic addition and ring closure). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Gas-phase nucleophilic substitution reactions of Y-benzyl chlorides with X-phenoxide and X-thiophenoxide nucleophiles were investigated theoretically using the PM3 semi-empirical MO method. The Leffler-Grunwald rate-equilibrium and Brønsted correlations predict that the degree of bond formation in the transition state (TS) is approximately 45 and 40% on the reaction coordinate for the phenoxides and thiophenoxides, respectively. For a weaker nucleophile, a later TS is obtained with an increased bond making and breaking. The variation of the TS structure with substituents in the nucleophile is thermodynamically controlled and is well correlated by rate-equilibrium relationships. In contrast, the TS variation (a tighter TS) with substituent (for a stronger acceptor Y) in the substrate is dependent only on variations of the intrinsic barrier and so cannot be correlated by such thermodynamically based rate-equilibrium relationships. The gas phase ρX and ρY values are much greater in magnitude than those in solution. A similar gas-phase theoretical cross-interaction constant, ρXY (ca -0.60), is obtained for both phenoxides and thiophenoxides, which is in good agreement with the experimental value (-0.62) for the thiophenoxide reactions in MeOH at 20.0 °C. The oxy and sulfur anion bases lead to a similar TS structure, but a lower reactivity for the former is due to a greater endothermicity of the reaction. A relatively wide range variation of the reaction energies, ΔG°, can be ascribed to the loss of resonance stabilization of anion nucleophiles upon product formation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Rate constants of solvolysis of α-tert-butyl(2-naphthyl)methyl chloride (1), 9-fluorenyl chloride (2) and a series of monosubstituted benzhydryl chlorides (3) in a wide range of solvents were measured. Grunwald-Winstein-type correlation analysis of log k for 2 and 3 against YBnCl, with or without nucleophilicity N, yielded less satisfactory linear correlations than that against log k(1). A new scale of solvent ionizing power, YxBnCl, for the correlation of solvolytic reactivities of benzylic chlorides with extended charge delocalization based on log k(1) was developed. Application to the mechanistic study suggested the solvolysis of 2 and 4-nitrobenzhydryl chloride were non-limiting. Hammett plots against σ+ constants exhibited more negative ρ values in less nucleophilic solvents. In a benzhydryl chloride containing a strong deactivating substituent, such as 4-nitro, the positive charge delocalizes mainly over the unsubstituted ring in the cationic transition state. The uneven charge distribution was also confirmed by Mulliken population analysis at the level of the RHF/6-31G*//RHF/3-21G(*) basis set for cations. Comparison of the results of correlation analysis using the equation log(k/k0) = mY vs the equation log(k/k0) = mY+hI, and using the equation log(k/k0) = mY+lN vs the equation log(k/k0) = mY+lN+hI indicated the use of YBnCl or YxBnCl could give a better understanding of solvolytic mechanisms than the combinatorial use of YCl and I. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The UHF-SCF-AM1 MO method was applied to the study of two kinds of pyrolysis reactions of six nitro derivatives of phenols (homolysis reaction by rupture of the C - NO2 bond into radicals and isomerization reaction involving phenolic hydrogen transferring to oxygen on the NO2 group). The molecular geometries of reactants, transition states and products were fully optimized. The potential energy curves and activation energies were first obtained. The results show that this category of compounds is more easily initiated via isomerization reactions than by homolysis reactions. The parallel relationship among the Wiberg bond order of the pyrolysis-initiation H - O bond in the molecule of a reactant, the activation energy of the isomerization reaction breaking the H - O bond and impact sensitivity of the reactant gives ‘the principle of the smallest bond order’ (PSBO) powerful support. The sensitizing effect of a phenol group was elucidated based on calculation results. The different influences of OH and NO2 groups on the heat of formation of a molecule are discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Phthalic anhydride was detected spectrophotometrically in the hydrolysis of o-carboxybenzohydroxamic acid (OCBA) in CH3CN-H2O solvent containing 0.03 mol dm-3 HCl. Pseudo-first-order rate constants (k1) for hydrolysis of OCBA are almost independent of the change in CH3CN content from 10 to 80% (v/v) in mixed aqueous solvents. The rate constants k1 are more than 10-fold larger than the corresponding rate constants for hydrolysis of phthalamic acid. These observations are explained in terms of a mechanism slightly different from the mechanism for hydrolysis of phthalamic acid. The activation parameters, ΔH* and ΔS*, are not affected appreciably by an increase in CH3CN content from 10 to 80% in mixed aqueous solvents. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A preferential solvation model that takes into account the enhancement of the structure of water when small amounts of alcohol are added was applied to solvatochromic data for binary mixtures of water with 2-methylpropan-2-ol, propan-2-ol, ethanol and methanol. Application of the model allows the calculation of the effect of the enhancement of the water structure on solvatochromic solvent properties. It is demonstrated that the enhancement of water structure increases the solvent dipolarity/polarizability and hydrogen-bond donor acidity and decreases the solvent hydrogen-bond acceptor basicity. The effect decreases in the order 2-methylpropan-2-ol-water, propan-2-ol-water, ethanol-water and methanol-water. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The coordination of a resonance-stabilized hydrocarbon cation and anion yielded a series of unprecedented hydrocarbons, which are susceptible to thermal heterolytic cleavage of carbon-carbon σ bonds in polar media, generating the original ions under reversible conditions. When the component ions were sufficiently stabilized, some ion pairs were even isolated as solids, thus providing the first examples of hydrocarbon salts. The direct observation of the heterolysis by means of spectroscopy permitted reliable thermodynamic treatments of the observed degree of ionic dissociation. Correlation of the free energy of heterolysis with solvent dielectric constants and parameters of ion stabilities such as pKHA, pKR+ and redox potentials revealed the importance of the thermodynamic stabilities of ions, the degree of solvation and steric congestion in the starting molecule as major controlling factors in the heterolysis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Solvolyses of the N,N-diphenylcarbamoylpyridinium ion are subject to specific and/or general base catalysis, which can be eliminated by addition of perchloric acid or increased, especially in fluoroalcohol-containing solvents, by addition of pyridine. The uncatalyzed solvolyses in aqueous methanol and aqueous ethanol involve a weakly nucleophilically assisted (l  =  0.22) heterolysis and the solvolyses in the pure alcohols are anomalously slow. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The effects of micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTABr), tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTABr), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and polyoxyethylene 10 lauryl ether (C12E10) on the rates of alkaline hydrolysis of securinine were studied at a constant [-OH] (0.05 M). An increase in the total concentrations of CTABr, TTABr, SDS and C12E10 from 0.0 to 0.2 M causes a decrease in the observed pseudo-first-order rate constants (kobs) by factors of ca 2.5, 3, 7 and 4, respectively. The observed data are explained in terms of pseudophase and pseudophase ion-exchange (PIE) models of micelle. The binding constants, KS, of securinine with SDS, C12E10, CTABr and TTABr micelles are 32.4, 14.8, 22.1, and 9.1 M-1, respectively. The magnitudes of the second-order rate constants, kM, for the reactions in the micellar pseudophase are negligible compared with the corresponding rate constant, kW, for the reaction occurring in the aqueous pseudophase for CTABr, TTABr, SDS and C12E10. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Colloidal CdS-induced photocatalytic reaction of 2-methylindole - mechanistic analysis of oxidation of indoles (1998)

    Notes: 2-Methylindole (2-MI) is adsorbed on the surface of colloidal CdS particles with an adsorption intensity of 0.6 × 103 dm3 mol-1. A new emission band at 530 nm is produced by forming an exciplex between excited CdS and 2-MI and the red emission due to CdS is simultaneously quenched. The emission maxima of green bands for different indoles increase in the order indole 〈 tryptophan 〈 2-MI 〈 3-MI and are observed at 508, 520, 530 and 540 nm, respectively. The shift in emission maxima is related to the oxidation potential of these substrates. The irradiation of an aerated reaction mixture containing CdS and 2-MI with visible light induces the oxidation of adsorbed 2-MI by photogenerated holes to produce 2-methyl-3-indolinone and 2-acetamidobenzaldehyde. The latter product is formed due to oxidative C - C bond cleavage of the pyrrole ring. The reactivity of trapped holes towards the adsorbed 2-MI is evidenced by a decrease in the lifetime of the red emission of CdS in the presence of 2-MI. In this reaction the possibility of the participation of singlet oxygen is ruled out. A general mechanism of CdS-induced oxidation of indoles is discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Transition metal-catalyzed decomposition of phenyliodonium and diphenylsulfonium ylides was investigated with regard to application in asymmetric carbenoid reactions. Phenyliodonium ylides react in the presence of Rh(II) catalysts with the same selectivity in inter- and intramolecular cyclopropanations as the corresponding diazo compounds, and intramolecular CH insertions proceed with identical enantioselectivities. With diphenylsulfonium ethoxycarbonylmethylide the Cu(I)-catalyzed cyclopropanation of olefins affords trans/cis ratios and asymmetric inductions identical with those of diazo compounds, but with Rh(II) catalysts some small, although significant, selectivity variations occur, which are ascribed to coordination of diphenyl sulfide to one of the coordination sites of the catalyst. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Hydrophobically modified polyelectrolytes (polysoaps) are a unique class of water-soluble polymers containing distinct hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions. Above a certain concentration, polysoaps form intramolecular and intermolecular aggregates in aqueous solution. They have attracted much attention not only for their ability to mimic some functions demonstrated by biopolymers but also for their important industrial applications. This review highlights some interesting features of novel non-cross-linked and cross-linked poly(alkylmethyldiallylammonium halides) that have been described in recent years. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Hydrogens located at activated positions in electrophilic arenes, e.g. ortho and para hydrogens in nitrobenzenes, can be replaced with a nucleophile moiety provided there is at least one nucleofuge X connected to the nucleophilic centre. As the group really leaving in this hydrogen substitution process is not the hydride anion but X, the reaction has been named vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (VNS). The concepts on the mechanism of the reaction and their experimental background are presented. Reactivity and orientation - the fundamental questions concerning synthetical applications of VNS - are discussed in light of the supposed mechanistic picture.

    Notes: An essential feature of the concept of aromaticity has been the stability and lack of reactivity of aromatics relative to that of other unsaturated compounds. Contrary to this general experience, high and unusual reactivity is encountered when simple, monocyclic benzene rings are bent by short bridges into a boat-shaped conformation, as is the case in small [n] paracyclophanes (n ≤ 8) and [n]metacyclophanes (n ≤ 7). This is illustrated, mostly with examples taken from the authors' own work, for thermal and photochemical behavior and reactions with electrophiles, nucleophiles and dienophiles. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

This review also spells out, at a time when creative research is overshadowed by imitative research, some of the methodological musts that also happen to characterize physical organic chemistry: the devising of experiments so that accurate numerical data can be obtained; the importance of remote, interdisciplinary connections; the need for estrangement from stereotypic preconceptions that may obscure the true explanations for the phenomena; and the over-riding need for concerning oneself only, or at least predominantly, with the important facts that nature tells, if one cares to listen. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Flash photolytic generation and investigation of short-lived reaction intermediates: a case study (1998)

    Notes: The advantage of adding more structure-diagnostic information to the simple detection of flash photolytically generated transient species by changes in UV-visible light absorbance is illustrated by a case study involving the mandelic acid keto-enol system. An early report based on preliminary evidence proposed that flash photolysis of phenyldiazoacetic acid produces the enol of mandelic acid by hydration of phenylhydroxyketene, itself generated by a photo-Wolff reaction of the diazo acid. Further examination, however, shows that this is only a minor route, and that the major pathway is a new enol-forming reaction involving what appears to be hydration of a carboxycarbene formed by dediazotization of the diazo compound. Hydration of phenylhydroxyketene is nevertheless the reaction by which mandelic acid enol is generated when esters of benzoylformic acid are the flash photolysis substrates. These mechanisms, and also identification of the enol as a tranisent species, are supported by detailed arguments involving acid-base catalysis, solvent isotope effects, and the use of oxygen-18 as a tracer. The work produces a keto-enol equilibrium constant for the mandelic acid system, pKE  =  16.19, and also acidity constants of the enol ionizing as an oxygen acid, pKEa  =  6.39, and the keto isomer ionizing as a carbon acid, pKKa  =  22.57. The bearing of these results on the enzyme-catalyzed racemization of mandelic acid is discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Novel one-pot syntheses of sulfur-containing polymers from a five-membered cyclic dithiocarbonate (5-phenoxymethyl-1,3-oxathiolane-2-thione (1)) and diamines were examined. Polydisulfides with M̄n 5400 ∼ 15800 were obtained in the oxidation polymerization of dithiols 2, which were obtained in situ by the reactions of 1 and diamines. When 1,12-dodecanediamine was employed, a polydisulfide with relatively high M̄n was obtained, while in the case of m-xylylenediamine, the polymerization was accompanied by intermolecular cyclization to give a polydisulfide with low M̄n. Polythiourethanes with M̄n 6500 ∼ 17200 were obtained in the polyaddition of 2 with 4,4′-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate). The yields and M̄n values increase with increasing methylene chain length of 2. Polythioethers with M̄n 2600 ∼ 19900 were obtained by the polycondensations of 2 with α,α′-dibromo-p-xylene. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the polymer decreases with increasing methylene chain length in the main chain.

The structure of the oligoperoxides was confirmed by spectroscopic methods (IR, NMR). Their thermal properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the mechanism of the thermal decomposition of the oligomeric peroxides was proposed basing on the GC-MS analysis of the degradation products.

    Notes: Five triaromatic azomethine-linked diepoxides have been cured by reaction with 4,4′-methyl-enedianiline (MDA) in a molar ratio epoxide/amine of 1:1 and 2:1. The influence of the structure of monomers, of the molar ratio epoxide/amine, and of the curing conditions on the formation of liquid crystalline networks was studied. Initially a decrease of the clearing temperature was caused by mixing with the nonmesogenic diamine. The clearing point of the mixture increased with conversion, and thermosets with a liquid crystal order of the monomers were obtained from the 2:1 combinations. Curing occurs in two stages as revealed by DSC: first epoxy/amine reaction occurs, and at higher temperature homopolymerisation of residual oxirane takes place. This is due to non-homogeneous melting of the diepoxides in dynamic curing.

MAO* synthesized by the hydrolysis of trimethylaluminium in chlorobenzene instead of toluene increases the catalytical activity strongly, and a turn over of 2.7 tons of poly(2,3-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene) per mol cobalt per hour was achieved. The polymers obtained are amorphous (WAXS). They show weight-average molecular weights up to M̄w = 1.5 · 106 and are soluble in chlorobenzene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, cyclohexane, and decahydronaphthalene.

    Notes: The norbornene/ethylene copolymerization was studied using C2v- and Cs-symmetric metallocene catalysts in the presence of methylaluminoxane as a cocatalyst. The batch reactions were carried out at four different temperatures copolymerizing a constant amount of ethylene with the appropriate amount of norbornene. The activity decreases for the Cp2ZrCl2 catalyst and increases to a constant level for the [Ph2C(Flu)(Cp)]ZrCl2 catalyst when the norbornene/ethylene ratio in the reaction increased. The highest activities and the highest norbornene contents in the copolymers were achieved using the [Ph2C(Flu)(Cp)]ZrCl2. The microstructure of the copolymer determined with 13C NMR was observed to depend on catalyst, temperature and monomer ratio. Cp2ZrCl2 produces more norbornene blocks as a function of norbornene content in the copolymer and longer norbornene sequences than [Ph2C(Flu)(Cp)]ZrCl2. The correlation between the increasing norbornene content in the copolymer and the increasing glass transition temperature is more obvious for [Ph2C(Flu)(Cp)]ZrCl2.

    Notes: A new type of side group copolymethacrylates was synthesized, characterized and tested with respect to its behavior on irradiation with an Ar+-laser beam. The side groups consist of methylene spacer units with different length and of three-ring mesogens with an ester group between the first and the second aromatic ring and on the other hand of two-ring mesogens with an azo-structure between the aromatic rings, respectively. The azochromophoric structure contains different substituents in the terminal aromatic ring. The homopolymers of the azo-dye containing monomers do not display liquid crystalline (lc) mesophases, but the three-ring mesogens induce lc-phases in opposition to the equimolaric copolymers with two-ring ester group mesogens. The lc phases are important for the stability of the recorded change of birefringence (photorecording process) which is influenced by irradiation of the polymers.

    Notes: Solid-state NMR was used to investigate the miscibility of LLDPE/polyamide-6 blends. Two different blends B1 and B2, obtained with LLDPE only and with LLDPE functionalized with diethyl succinate, respectively, as well as their individual components, were characterized by means of 13C selective techniques. Measurement of 1H spin-lattice relaxation times in both laboratory and rotating frames allowed the miscibility at a molecular level to be investigated for both blends: in B1 the domains of the different components are on average larger than 100-200 Å, whereas in B2, where two different fractions could be separated on the basis of their solubility in heptane, the average linear dimensions of the insoluble fraction are between 20 and 200 Å.

    Notes: The synthesis, crystal structure and detatiled molecular mechanics calculations, including crystal packing interactions, of tetrahexylsubstituted sexithienylene are presented. Unexpectedly the molecule, which arranges in the P-1 space group, displays no herringbone arrangement, thienylenic rings are far from coplanarity and the alkylic side chains present different conformations. Molecular mechanics fully accounts for these findings. From crystal packing computations it is derived that different arrangements are unable to lower the packing energy, due to the closeness of two alkyl chains on the same side of the thienylenic backbone, which prevents interspersion of non-parallel molecules.

    Notes: Ethene was copolymerized with 1-hexene and 1-hexadecene over five different homogeneous methylaluminoxane (MAO) activated racemic ansa-metallocene catalysts in order to study both the influence of the ligand (indenyl and tetrahydroindenyl) and the influence of the interannular bridge (ethylene, dimethylsilylene and 1,4-butanediylsilylene) on the copolymerization behaviour. Hydrogenation of the indenyl ligands was found to decrease comonomer content and molar mass of the copolymers. A similar tendency was observed for the ethylene bridge compared to the silylene bridges. The reasons for this behaviour are discussed and related to structural differences of the catalyst precursors. In addition a segregation fractionation technique was applied to study the chemical composition distribution (CCD) of the produced copolymers. Batchwise feed of comonomer resulted in a broad CCD. More homogeneous copolymers could be produced using partly continuous feed of comonomer.

    Notes: The polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) has been studied using 4-[diphenyl(trimethylsilyl)methyl]benzophenone 1 as photoinitiator. The polymerization follows a free radical mechanism; the polymerization rate increases linearly with the monomer concentration and was found to be proportional to the 0.33 and 1.40 power of the photoinitiator and the monomer (MMA) concentration, respectively. The overall activation energy in the case of MMA photopolymerization was calculated to be 25.0 kJ/mol. From 1H NMR studies it is concluded that the obtained polymers contain two different trimethylsilyl moieties, one at the head and the other at the tail of the polymer chain, showing primary termination reactions even at low initiator concentrations. The p-benzoyltrityl radical 1· is incorporated into the polymer chain to a very small extent, acting as a scavenger. This is also concluded by laser flash photolysis (LFP) and ESR spectroscopy measurements. A “living” character of the polymerization was observed only at very low initiator concentrations. The triplet state (31*) of the initiator was quenched by styrene, reducing its efficiency. The rate constant kq of the quenching process of 31* was measured by LFP (kq = 3.1 · 109 M-1 · S-1). The triplet state and the photodissociation efficiency of the initiator is unaffected by MMA at various concentrations.

    Notes: Acrylonitrile/hexyl methacrylate copolymers of different monomer composition were prepared by photopolymerization using uranyl ions as photosensitizer. The copolymer composition data were used to calculate the comonomer reactivity ratios according to the Kelen Tüdős (KT) and the error-in-variables model (EVM) method. The reactivity ratios obtained from the EVM method are rA = 0.14 ± 0.03 and rH = 1.32 ± 0.17. The microstructure was obtained in terms of distribution of A and H centred triad sequences from 13C{1H} NMR spectra of the copolymers. The copolymerization mechanism was determined by using Cheng's methodology. It was found that the Markov second order model gave a good fit to the experimental data. The complex and overlapping proton and carbon signals of A/H copolymers were assigned to various compositional and configurational sequences with the help of inverse HETCOR experiments.

    Notes: Propene polymerizations were performed using the two ansa-zirconocene catalyst systems dimethylsilylbis(1-indenyl)zirconium dichloride/methylaluminoxane and dimethylsilylbis(2-methyl-1-indenyl)zirconium dichloride/methylaluminoxane. The polymerization rate was observed by continuously monitoring the monomer consumption. Reaction rate profiles were obtained in the temperature range from 40°C to 130°C at pressures between 1 and 2.5 bar and catalyst concentrations from 4.6 · 10-6 M to 4.2 · 10-5 M. Isotacticity, as measured by NMR, melting point and molecular weight decreases markedly at higher temperatures. Small amounts of 1,3-inserted monomer (〈1 mol-%) was observed at polymerization temperatures above 80°C. No 2,1-inserted monomer was detected. A kinetic model was developed that describes the polymerization rate for Me2Si(Ind)2ZrCl2 as the catalyst over the entire observed temperature range, and the polymerization rate for Me2Si(2-Me-Ind)2ZrCl2 in a limited temperature range. The model includes an activation reaction, latent sites that may revert to active sites and a permanent deactivation that is second order with respect to the active sites. The activation energy for the propagation reaction was found to be 37 kJ/mol for Me2Si(Ind)2ZrCl2 and 32 kJ/mol for Me2Si(2-Me-Ind)2ZrCl2/MAO. Several kinetic models are compared and discussed.

Tetrahydrofuran soluble, mostly trimethylsilyl protected amylose was prepared and reacted with potassium tert-butoxide to give the corresponding alkoxide. Poly(lactic acid)-grafted amyloses were obtained by ring-opening anionic polymerization of lactide using the polymeric alkoxides as initiators and subsequent removal of the TMS groups. The obtained graft copolymers show biodegradability and a microphase-separated morphology.

    Notes: Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction analysis were performed to study the multiple melting behavior and crystal forms of neat syndiotactic polystyrene (s-PS) in comparison with its miscible blends with amorphous atactic polystyrene (a-PS) or poly(2,6-dimethyl-p-phenylene oxide) (PPO). For neat s-PS annealed at 242 to 250°C, three melting peaks of changing intensity were observed (labeled I, II, and III from low to high temperature), while if annealed at high temperatures (254°C or higher) only two melting peaks were left. The missing peak was determined to be Peak-III for s-PS annealed at high temperatures. For the s-PS/a-PS or s-PS/PPO blends, two melting peaks were observed, and the missing peak is Peak-II. The missing Peak-II in the blend systems is attributed to the β-modification. Apparently, the condition of s-PS being compatible with a-PS or PPO is unfavorable for generating the β-modification upon melt crystallization. This study also showed that Peak-I is associated with the β-modification. Peak-III may be associated with the less stable β′ form, which can be transformed to the β form upon annealing at high temperatures. For the s-PS/a-PS or s-PS/PPO blends upon annealing at higher temperatures, Peak-III quickly decreases, leaving only a single melting peak (Peak-I) for the blends. The phenomenon of the decrease of Peak-III crystals in the blend is similar to that for neat s-PS annealed at high temperatures.

    Notes: The viscoelastic properties of cured acrylate-terminated copolyesters were studied by means of dynamic mechanical analysis. The influence of terminal double bonds, as well as of the cis-trans configuration and distribution along the main chain, on the transition temperatures and rheological properties of the cured polyesters are presented. The presence of double bonds at both chain ends allows the formation of a regular network by crosslinking copolymerization with styrene. The present investigation was carried out on three series of acrylate-terminated copolyesters: poly[(tetramethylene maleate)-co-(tetramethylene phthalate)] (BMPA), poly[(tetramethylene fumarate)-co-(tetramethylene phthalate)] (BFPA) and poly[(tetramethylene phthalate)-co-(tetramethylene succinate)] (BPSA). The results of the mechanical spectrometric analysis are presented as master curves by applying the time-temperature superposition principle. The WLF parameters of the cured unsaturated polyesters were determined above the glass transition temperatures. The glass transition temperatures shift to higher temperatures with increasing degree of crosslinking. The equilibrium shear storage modulus plateau changes as a consequence of the different configuration of the double bonds and the degree of crosslinking. The degree of crosslinking, nc, determined from the equilibrium shear modulus G′e, was higher than those determined from equilibrium swelling measurements, which is apparently connected with the contribution of physical entanglements.

    Notes: Poly(methyl methacrylate) microspheres [poly(SerMA-co-MMA), poly(AlaMAm-co-MMA), poly(AlaEMA-co-MMA), and poly(AlaMAm/AlaEMA-co-MMA)] modified with O-methacryloyl-L-serine (SerMA), N-methacryloyl-L-alanine (AlaMAm) and L-alanine 2-methacryloyloxyethyl ester (AlaEMA) were prepared by the emulsifier-free emulsion copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) with SerMA, AlaMAm and AlaEMA, respectively, initiated with 2,2′-azobis[2-(2-imidazolin-2-yl)propane] dihydrochloride (ABIP). The series of polymer microspheres showed unimodal distribution of the particle size (290-800 nm) in water. From X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy it was concluded that the amino acid moieties are located on the surface of the particles in all cases. Poly(SerMA-co-MMA) showed the most effective suppression of adsorption of proteins such as albumin (Alb), γ-globulin (Glo) and fibrinogen (Fib) among the examined poly(methylmethacrylate) microspheres.

    Notes: This study concerns the synthesis of poly(vinyl ether)s (VEs) carrying pendant cellobiose heptadecanoate (CHD) residues and their mesomorphic properties examined by DSC, polarization microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The poly(VE)s were synthesized through cationic polymerization of a CHD-substituted VE, i.e., 10-(vinyloxy)decyl-2,2′,3,3′,4′,6,6′-hepta-O-decanoyl-β-D-cellobioside. From X-ray diffraction analyses, the mesophase of the poly(VE) proved to be closely similar to that of the star-shaped triplet derivative. The mesophase is characterized by the following features; (i) it consists of discotic columns built up by a regular stacking of the pendant CHD residues, (ii) each polymer main chain is presumed to have an extended conformation due to the periodic stacking of the pendant CHD moieties into a columnar structure, and (iii) each polymer molecule independently forms three discotic columns, which surround the main chain, without any intercalation of the CHD pendants originating from different polymer molecules.

    Notes: The influence of the mixed surfactants sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and nonylphenol polyethoxylate with an average of 40 ethylene oxide units per molecule (NP-40) on the styrene (ST) miniemulsion polymerization in the presence of dodecyl methacrylate (DMA) and stearyl methacrylate (SMA) was investigated. Both Ostwald ripening and creaming could not be neglected for the miniemulsions stabilized by SDS/NP-40 in combination with DMA upon aging at 35°C, whereas no appreciable Ostwald ripening and creaming were detected for the SMA containing miniemulsions. For both the DMA and SMA containing polymerizations at 80°C, the rate of polymerization (Rp) decreases with increasing NP-40 concentration ([NP-40]). Incorporation of a small quantity of the extremely water-insoluble blue dye into the reaction system was applied to probe the particle nucleation loci. For the DMA containing polymerizations with [NP-40] = 0, 1.25, and 2.50 mM and the SMA polymerization with [NP-40] = 0 mM, homogeneous or micellar nucleation can not be ignored. On the other hand, the more hydrophobic SMA in combination with SDS/NP-40 effectively retards the particle nucleation occurring in the aqueous or micellar phase.

    Notes: The melting behavior and the isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(butylene adipate), poly(butylene isophthalate) and their random copolymers were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry. Multiple endotherms, commonly observed on the melting polyesters, were found to be influenced by crystallization temperature and composition. By applying the Hoffman-Weeks method to the isothermally crystallized samples, the equilibrium melting temperatures of the homopolymers were obtained. From calorimetric results on samples with different degree of crystallinity, the equilibrium melting enthalpy of poly(butylene isophthalate) was calculated and the presence of a crystal-amorphous interphase in copolymers was evidenced. Isothermal melt crystallization kinetics was analyzed according to the Avrami equation. As expected, the introduction of a comonomer was found to decrease the overall crystallization rate of the polymers. Values of Avrami exponent close to three were obtained for all the samples, independently of composition and crystallization temperature, in agreement with a crystallization process originating from predetermined nuclei and characterized by three-dimensional spherulitic growth. In the case of poly(butylene isophthalate), the dependence of the rate of crystallization on Tc shows a maximum at an undercooling of approximately 60°C.

    Notes: Copolymers obtained from the copolymerization of (R,S)-3-butyrolactone ((R,S)-3-BL) and 4-butyrolactone (4-BL) catalyzed by isobutylaluminoxane were compared in structure and properties to copolymers having the same types of repeating units produced by Alcaligenes eutrophus when grown with an appropriate substrate or substrate or substrate mixtures. Copolymers with 4-BL contents up to 33 mol-% were prepared and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The copolymers had a sequence distribution of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-HB) and 4-hydroxybutyrate (4-HB) units which were non-random in that very few, if any, sequences of more than two successive 4-HB units were present. The 3-HB units are believed to be separated into isotactic (R) and (S) blocks, but thermal analysis by DSC showed that both the glass transition temperatures and melting temperatures decreased in a regular manner with increasing contents of 4-HB units. Number average molecular weights of the copolymers (Mn) ranged from 7000 to 15000. Biodegradation tests with a bacterial hydrolase showed that the biodegradation rates increased with increasing contents of 4-HB units, as is the case for the equivalent bacterial copolymers.

    Notes: A series of side-chain liquid-crystalline polymers via pyridyl-phenol hydrogen bonding complexation was prepared by using non-liquid-crystalline precursors, such as poly[(4-vinylpyridine)-co-(butyl acrylate)] and 4-(4′-nitrophenylazo)phenol, 4-(4′-methoxyphenylazo)phenol or 4-(phenylazo)phenol. The association by hydrogen bonding was confirmed by means of FTIR. While the hydrogen bonds are weakened, and some dissociation occurs at the isotropization temperature, complete dissociation needs much higher temperature. The hydrogen bonds re-form as the complex is cooled to room temperature. The nematic liquid crystallinity of the polymer complexes was shown by means of wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WXRD) and polarized optical microscopy (POM). The different substitution groups of azophenol give isotropization temperatures of the polymer complexes in the following sequence: —NO2 〉 —H 〉 —OCH3.

    Notes: Copolymers were prepared by the condensation of rigid benzoyl-terminated poly(p-benzamide) and flexible anilino-terminated poly(m-benzamide) prepolymers. The use of two monomers of the AB type and of end-capped prepolymers resulted in the formation of diblock molecules uncontaminated by triblock or multiblock sequences. Moreover, selective extraction techniques in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) with varying amounts of LiCl resulted in the complete elimination of unreacted prepolymers, as evidenced from material balance and 1H NMR data. The above extraction technique also allowed a fractionation of the copolymers in terms of their rigid/flexible compositional distribution ratio. The molecular weight-intrinsic viscosity dependence of poly(m-benzamide) determined in a nonaggregating solvent using light scattering yielded a persistence length of 8 Å, suggesting a relatively large chain flexibility. A tailored copolymer with a fraction β of flexible residues = 0.70 was fractionated, determining the solubility, the viscosity, and the critical composition for mesophase formation in DMAc/LiCl and in 96% H2SO4 solutions. The results, in line with those previously reported for a related system, reveal that the addition of the flexible segment has a little effect on the critical concentration of poly(p-benzamide), whereas the biphasic gap is strongly reduced. Moreover, the solubility of the copolymer is substantially increased over that of the rigid homopolymer. The net result is an unexpected widening of the range of stability of the pure mesophase, with significant implications from both a fundamental and an applied standpoint.

    Notes: Poly{oxy-4,4′-octafluorobiphenylyleneoxy-alt-[1,4-phenylenevinylene(3-trimethylsilyl-1,4-phenylene)vinylene-1,4-phenylene]} (PFSi) was synthesized and characterized to investigate its thermal, optical, electrical and xerographic properties. An LED (light emitting device) using PFSi as the light emitting layer exhibits maximum emission for blue light, but a high turn-on voltage. The origin of the low device performance was examined by investigating the photoconducting behavior. PFSi shows a high photoconductivity in the presence of electron acceptors such as 5-nitroanthranilonitrile (5NAN), and the photoconductivity of PFSi is improved by introducing charge transport materials such as triphenylamine (TPA).

    Notes: Four methacrylate monomers, 2a-2d, containing a quinoline ring with a NO2 or a OCH3 group at the end of the mesogen were synthesized and polymerized. The copolymers with six methylene units as spacer, 3b-3d, showed a smectic phase induced by electron donor-acceptor interactions of the side groups. The homopolymer with eleven methylene units as spacer and methoxy end group, 3f, showed a smectic phase induced by the large length of the spacer. The copolymers with eleven methylene units, 3g-3i, showed a smectic phase induced by both the electron donor-acceptor interactions of the side groups and the large length of the spacer.

    Notes: The effect of molecular weight on sharkskin dynamics is systematically studied using three metallocene-catalyzed linear low density polyethylenes (mLLDPE) of different molecular weights. A new experimental method is developed to enable in-situ characterization of the time scale τ on which sharkskin forms on the extrudate. This laser scattering technique directly measures the periodic variation of the refracted light of the rough sharkskin-like extrudate surface. It is found that τ increases with molecular weight as strongly as the overall molecular chain relaxation time, τ*, determined from oscillatory shear measurements. The observed molecular weight dependence provides additional support for the recently proposed interfacial stress growth/relaxation mechanism for sharkskin formation.

    Notes: The novel polycarbosilane poly(dimethyldiphenylsilylenemethylene) (PDMDPSM) (2) was prepared by H2PtCl6-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of 1,1-dimethyl-3,3-diphenyl-1,3-disilacyclobutane (1). Polymerization in bulk at elevated temperature afforded high molecular weight PDMDPSM (Mw = 577000) with monomodal molecular weight distribution and regularly alternating SiR2/CH2 backbone structure. NMR spectroscopy revealed that a minor fraction of the monomer units is incorporated irregularly during polymerization in bulk, leading to structural units of the type —SiPh2—CH2—SiPh2— and —SiMe2—CH2—SiMe2—. The amount of regularly alternating dimethyl- and diphenylsilylenemethylene units increases when the polymerization is performed in solution at lower temperatures. PDMDPSM shows a glass transition temperature (Tg) at 50°C, which lies between the TgS of poly(methylphenylsilylenemethylene) (PMPSM) and poly(diphenylsilylenemethylene) (PDPSM), demonstrating the stiffening effect of the SiPh2 groups. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) evidenced nearly identical thermal stability of PDMDPSM and PMPSM.

    Notes: A series of poly(p-phenylenes) with linear and branched oxyethylene side chains was synthesized. Microphase separation in the solid state causes polymers with linear side chains to form supramolecular structures, which consist of main chain layers separated by an amorphous side chain matrix. If mixed with lithium salts such as lithium triflate (LiOTf) or lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfone)imide (LiNTf), the polymers form solid solutions. The experimental data suggest that the layered structures undergo a one-dimensional swelling in the direction perpendicular to the main chain layers when blended with LiOTf and that this salt is only incorporated into the side chain matrix. The observed melting point depression in polymer-LiNTf mixtures is explained by the assumption that the salt species are incorporated both into the side chain and the main chain microphase.

    Notes: The dielectric behavior of several thermotropic linear and comb-like polymers with flexible spacers and mesogenic fragments with different structure has been studied in a frequency range from 60 Hz to 1 MHz in the bulk state (below the glass transition temperature). Two regions of dipole relaxation caused by local mobility were detected. It was shown that the relaxation parameters of the first process virtually do not change with increasing spacer length and have similar values in polymers with different structure. In the case of the second process, in increase in spacer length considerably increases the mobility of kinetic elements.

    Notes: A blend of polycaprolactone (PCL) and poly(2,2-dimethyltrimethylene carbonate) (PDTC) containing catalytic amounts of dibutyltin dimethoxide was prepared from solution. The blend was then subjected to melt-mixing at 200°C and samples were taken after different times. According to thermal analysis data, with the increase of reaction time a gradual loss of the crystallizability of the blend components is observed, and after 70 min at 200°C the system becomes completely amorphous. 13C NMR data suggest that the loss of crystallizability of the blend is accompanied by an abrupt decrease in PCL and PDTC sequence lengths reaching after 70 min at 200°C an average length of about two repeating units each. These effects are explained by transesterification reactions between the lactone and carbonate units.

    Notes: A series of poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilanes) were prepared via anionic ring-opening polymerization. The isothermal crystallization kinetics were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and analyzed in terms of the Avrami equation. The value of the Avrami exponent is approximately 3 for the majority of samples and crystallization temperatures. This suggests a three-dimensional spherulitic growth and an instantaneous nucleation mechanism. The morphology of melt-crystallized samples was studied by atomic force microscopy. Hedrites (immature spherulites) were formed at low undercoolings whereas at high levels of undercooling mature, well developed spherulites were observed with small hedritic features in their center. The melting enthalpy for a 100% crystalline polymer was estimated to be 36 J/g from differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction data obtained by using specimens with different degrees of crystallinity.

    Notes: 2,3-Bis(trimethylsiloxy)butadiene (1) and 2,3-bis(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)butadiene (2) have been homopolymerized and copolymerized with styrene (St) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) under freeradical conditions. Comparison of initial rates and molecular weights with polymerizations conducted under identical experimental conditions on monosubstituted analogs, 2-trimethysiloxybutadiene (3) and 2-(tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)butadiene (4), demonstrated that the second substituent does not decrease the polymerizability significantly despite the additional steric hindrance introduced in the monomer. Extensive 1H and 13C NMR characterization of the polymers demonstrated that the main incorporation mode is of the 1,4-type, allowing more than 95% of the butadienyl subunit to be incorporated in the main chain as an α,β-bis(trialkylsiloxy)vinylene functional group. Monomer reactivity ratios r1 and r2 at 60°C were determined from copolymer composition curves obtained at low conversions and are compared with values obtained for other 1,2-butadienyl systems.

    Notes: Block copolymers of unsubstituted poly(p-xylylene)(PPX) and Ge- or Sn-organic bridged PPX (GePPX and SnPPX) were prepared by pyrolysis of specially synthesized organometallic p-cyclophane precursors followed by deposition and polymerization of the thus produced p-xylylene monomers. The copolymer structure and thermal behavior were investigated depending on deposition temperature (10 and -196°C). The copolymer PPX-GePPX obtained from solid monomers deposited at -196°C (2a) consists of long quasi-independent PPX and GePPX blocks and has paracrystalline structure. Thermal treatment of 2a near 160°C yields crystalline regions of PPX along with paracrystalline aggregates of GePPX. Pyrolysis of this system near 300°C in an inert atmosphere results in the formation of Ge crystals in PPX matrix. In contrast, the copolymer PPX-GePPX produced by simultaneous deposition and polymerization at 10°C (2a′) contains shorter blocks of PPX and GePPX than the copolymer deposited at -196°C. Copolymer 2a′ turns to the amorphous state during thermal treatment, and its pyrolysis does not lead to Ge-crystal formation; hence the supramolecular structure of the polymer plays an important role in inorganic phase formation. The copolymer PPX-SnPPX (2b) is formed only at a deposition temperature of -196°C; deposition at 10°C yields oligomeric resins. The structure of 2b is nearly the same as that of 2a; pyrolysis of 2b in air results in SnO2-crystal formation in a PPX matrix.

The degree of modification depends on the reaction conditions, and values of up to 70% are achieved without degradation or other appreciable side reactions. The tertiary amino groups in the polymer can be alkylated with iodides of varying chain length to form quantitatively quaternary pyridinium salt groups, leading to PVC ionomers and polyelectrolytes.

    Notes: 1,1-Bis[(4-dimethylamino)phenyl]ethylene was successfully synthesized through the ‘Wittigtype’ reaction of 4,4′-bis(dimethylamino)benzophenone with the ‘Tebbe’ reagent. The methylenation yields were over 80 wt.-% on the basis of the initial amount of benzophenone derivative used. Terminally functionalized polymers having aromatic tertiary amine groups at one end or at both ends were prepared by the crossover reactions of n-butyllithium (n-BuLi), poly(styryl)lithium (PSLi), and poly(isoprenyl)lithium (PILi) with the diphenylethylene analogue. The functionalization yields were over 87 mol.-% based on the results of 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis. The number-average molecular weights of the polymers based on the ratio [gram of monomer]/[mole of initiator] are in good accordance with those observed from size exclusion chromatographic and 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis (3,0 × 103 ∼ 7,5 × 103 g/mol).

    Notes: Model liquid crystalline ionomers have been analyzed by SAXS both in bulk and in toluene solution. These compounds are referred to as liquid crystalline halatosemitelechelic polystyrenes (LC HSTP's) and consist of low molecular weight polystyrene chains end-capped at one end by a sulfonate group associated to a mesogenic counterion. The results are in agreement with a microphase separation between the polymer chain and the mesogenic counterion. The main characteristic feature of the SAXS profile for the bulk material is the so-called ionic peak, whose position obeys a general law which is in favor of a rod-like organization of the multiplets and which shows that the polymer chains are stretched in the very close vicinity of the mesogenic core, in agreement with the Eisenberg, Hird and Moore model for ionomers. The thickness of this region of restricted mobility has been estimated to 1 nm, which is the order of magnitude of the persistence length of polystyrene. This very local restriction in mobility persists in toluene solution, in contrast to what is observed for the ω-Li-sulfonato-polystyrene precursors. The results also agree with an isotropic distribution of the multiplets in toluene.
