Alkylation polymers

In the model compounds, this red shift has been ascribed to a combination of silicon backbone with the x-orbitals of the aromatic substituent coupled with a decrease in the LUMO energy due to x -(a, d) interactions (15,16). Further examination of the data in Table III shows that the absorption maximum of the cyclohexylmethyl derivative, 9, is also somewhat red-shifted relative to the other alkyl polymers suggesting that the steric bulk of the substituents and/or conformational effects may also influence the polysilane absorption spectrum.

IM-IM cooperation. It is difficult to establish the IM-IM" cooperation in poly(4(5)-vinylimidazole), since pK2 value is more than 14.5 (74). The IM-IM" cooperation can be observed in hydrolyses of PNPA(5) and 4-acetoxy-3-nitrobenzoic acid [n = 0 in (8)] by poly(5(6)-vinylbenzimidazole), of which pK2 value is estimated to be 12.7 (26). The hydrolyses rates increase sharply as the pH approaches the pK2 value of the polymer. In contrast, such a drastic enhancement in the rate is not observed in the benzimidazole-catalysed hydrolysis, nevertheless, pK2 value of the benzimidazole being 12.7. N-Alkylated polymers such as poly(N-vinylimidazole), poly(NIM), and poly(2-methyl-N-vinylimidazole), poly(2MIM), which have no anionic form in imidazole moieties, show the hydrolytic activities slightly less than that of poly(4(5)-vinylimidazole). In cases of low molecular weight analogues, such as N-methylimidazole and imidazole, the hydrolytic activity of the former is about 75% of the activity of imidazole (75, 76). These phenomena appear to support the IM-IM" cooperation in poly(4(5)-vmylimidazole) indirectly. In the hydrolyses of NABS(l) and NABA(3) by poly(5(6)-vinylbenzimidazole), the activity enhancement is about 50-fold compared with the activity of benzimidazole, in spite of these anionic substrates being used (23, 26). 

The predicted increased solvent sensitivity of Tc with decreasing substituent size was tested further by comparing the transition temperatures of a series of di-n-alkyl polymers in n-hexane and toluene solutions. The results (Table II) are again in good qualitative agreement with the theoretical prediction. In particular, the difference between Tc in toluene and that in n-hexane solution increases monotonically with decreasing side-chain length 6 C, heptyl 10 C, hexyl and 16 °C, pentyl. 

Wesslau was the first to demonstrate that, along with certain heterogeneous catalytic systems for polyethylene, there is a certain MWD dependence on the type and number of ligands altogether distributed between catalyst and cocatalyst. With TiCl -aluminium alkyls it was concluded > that, by varying the type of aluminum alkyl, polymers are obtained with a very similar MWD curve, but with the maximum shifted according to the nature of the alkyl group. Instead, different results were found by Russian researchers 59-ieo)... 

The subscripts A and H correspond to sites with alkyl (polymer) and hydride groupings and the superscripts M and N to adsorbed monomer and nitrogen. The coefficients f, b> f, b refer to adsorption and desorption of monomer and nitrogen respectively while /e, k , kfr and kp are the rate coefficients of termination, re-initiation, transfer and propagation. This leads to a rate relationship (G, constant total no. of active sites)... 

The fluorescence of the phenyl polymer is similar in shape to the fluorescence from the alkyl polymers and the similar shape of the phosphorescence spectrum, as well, suggests that the origins of the electronic spectrum are also much the same. The apparent increased quantum yield for phosphorescence in poly(phenyl methyl silylene) probably reflects a mixing of the ring electronic levels with the levels of the chain. Both the fluorescence and phosphorescence of the naphthyl derivative are substantially altered relative to the phenyl polymer. Fluorescence resembles that of poly(B Vinyl naphthalene) (17,29) which is attributed to excimer emission. Phosphorescence is similar to naphthalene itself. These observations suggest that the replacement of an alkyl with phenyl moiety does not change the basic nature of the electronic state but may incorporate some ir character. Upon a naphthyl substitution both the fluorescence and phosphorescence become primarily tt-tt like.

The result for A (= 3.1kcal/mol) is in a reasonable agreement with the current value of the rotational barrier for alkyl polymers. The prefactor is consistent with the rotational frequency around C-C bonds, in one of the limiting cases considered by Kramers [9] this is currently referred to as the natural oscillation frequency, whereby the medium viscosity produces a very small friction, however sufficient to provide the Brownian energy at constant temperature. In the case of PIB in...
