Alkoxy properties

The thiazolium ring, as most heterocycloammoniums, is a Lewis acid conferring to the carbon atom in the 2-position the carbocationic property of adding the free pair of a base either organic or mineral that may be the molecule of solvent as ROH (Scheme 11). For many nuclei of suitable acidity, these equilibria can be observed in dilute solution by means of absorption spectra when species A and C possess different characteristics (24). For example, benzothiazolium and benzoxazolium in methanol and ethanol give at 10 mole liter 8 and 54% of the alkoxy derivatives for the former and 29 and 90% for the latter respectively. 

The greater stability of the intermediates arising from attack at the ortho and para posi tions compared with those formed by attack at the position meta to the oxygen sub stituent explains the ortho para directing property of hydroxyl alkoxy and acyloxy groups... 

Chemical Structure and Properties. Homopolymer consists exclusively of repeating oxymethylene units. The copolymer contains alkyhdene units (eg, ethyUdene —CH2—CH2—) randomly distributed along the chain. A variety of end groups may be present in the polymers. Both homopolymer and copolymer may have alkoxy, especially methoxy (CH3 O—), or formate (HCOO—) end groups. Copolymer made with ethylene oxide has 2-hydroxyethoxy end groups. Homopolymer generally has acetate end groups. 

Properties. One of the characteristic properties of the polyphosphazene backbone is high chain dexibility which allows mobility of the chains even at quite low temperatures. Glass-transition temperatures down to —105° C are known with some alkoxy substituents. Symmetrically substituted alkoxy and aryloxy polymers often exhibit melting transitions if the substituents allow packing of the chains, but mixed-substituent polymers are amorphous. Thus the mixed substitution pattern is deUberately used for the synthesis of various phosphazene elastomers. On the other hand, as with many other flexible-chain polymers, glass-transition temperatures above 100°C can be obtained with bulky substituents on the phosphazene backbone.

Whilst increasing the length of alkyl side chain can, to some extent, depress Tg and improve low-temperature properties this is at the expense of oil resistance. On the other hand lengthening of the side chain by incorporation of an —O— or an —S— linkage could often depress Tg and reduce swelling in hydrocarbon oils. This led to the commercial development of copolymers of either ethyl or butyl acrylate with an alkoxy acrylate comprising some 20-50% of the total composition. Typical of such alkoxy compounds are methoxyethyl acrylate (1) and ethoxyethyl acrylate (11) ... 

PDMS based siloxane polymers wet and spread easily on most surfaces as their surface tensions are less than the critical surface tensions of most substrates. This thermodynamically driven property ensures that surface irregularities and pores are filled with adhesive, giving an interfacial phase that is continuous and without voids. The gas permeability of the silicone will allow any gases trapped at the interface to be displaced. Thus, maximum van der Waals and London dispersion intermolecular interactions are obtained at the silicone-substrate interface. It must be noted that suitable liquids reaching the adhesive-substrate interface would immediately interfere with these intermolecular interactions and displace the adhesive from the surface. For example, a study that involved curing a one-part alkoxy terminated silicone adhesive against a wafer of alumina, has shown that water will theoretically displace the cured silicone from the surface of the wafer if physisorption was the sole interaction between the surfaces [38]. Moreover, all these low energy bonds would be thermally sensitive and reversible. 

The optical properties can be tuned by variations of the chromophores (e.g. type of side-chains or length of chromophorc). The alkyl- and alkoxy-substituted polymers emit in the bluc-gnecn range of the visible spectrum with high photolu-inincsccncc quantum yields (0.4-0.8 in solution), while yellow or red emission is obtained by a further modification of the chemical structure of the chromophores. For example, cyano substitution on the vinylene moiety yields an orange emitter.

The superior donor properties of amino groups over alkoxy substituents causes a higher electron density at the metal centre resulting in an increased M-CO bond strength in aminocarbene complexes. Therefore, the primary decarbo-nylation step requires harsher conditions moreover, the CO insertion generating the ketene intermediate cannot compete successfully with a direct electro-cyclisation of the alkyne insertion product, as shown in Scheme 9 for the formation of indenes. Due to that experience amino(aryl)carbene complexes are prone to undergo cyclopentannulation. If, however, the donor capacity of the aminocarbene ligand is reduced by N-acylation, benzannulation becomes feasible [22]. 

Abstract In this paper the synthesis, properties and applications of poly(organophos-phazenes) have been highlighted. Five different classes of macromolecules have been described, i.e. phosphazene fluoroelastomers, aryloxy-substituted polymeric flame-retardants, alkoxy-substituted phosphazene electric conductors, biomaterials and photo-inert and/or photo-active phosphazene derivatives. Perspectives of future developments in this field are briefly discussed.

Polyphosphazenes are intrinsically fire-resistant materials because of the presence of phosphorus and nitrogen in the polymeric chain. A low flammability is thus one of the most important properties of polyphosphazenes, particularly of the polyaryloxyphosphazenes I, in which R may be H, halogens, and alkyl or alkoxy groups.
