Asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization

Note 1 A stereoselective polymerization is defined as a polymerization in which a polymer molecule is formed from a mixture of stereoisomeric monomer molecules by the incorporation of only one stereoisomeric species [1]. Thus, an asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization is a stereoselective polymerization, in which all the polymer molecules are formed by the incorporation of only one type of stereoisomeric species. [Pg.77]

If the polymerization sites are not prefectly isoselective, the result is a modified asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization behavior with some cross-propagation of the two enantiomeric monomers and a decrease in the overall isotacticity of the reaction product. [Pg.706]

The extent of asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization in an isoselective process is evaluated by measuring the optical activity of unreacted monomer a as a function of the extent of reaction p [Zhong et al., 2003], The rates of reaction of R and S enantiomers are given by... [Pg.706]

A special case of asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization is the isoselective copolymerization of optically active 3-methyl-1-pentene with racemic 3,7-dimethyl-1-octene by TiCl4 and diisobutylzinc [Ciardelli et al., 1969]. The copolymer is optically active with respect to both comonomer units as the incorporated optically active 3-methyl-l-pentene directs the preferential entry of only one enantiomer of the racemic monomer. The directing effect of a chiral center in one monomer unit on the second monomer, referred to as asymmetric induction, is also observed in radical and ionic copolymerizations. The radical copolymerization of optically active a-methylbenzyl methacrylate with maleic anhydride yields a copolymer that is optically active even after hydrolytic cleavage of the optically active a-methylbenzyl group from the polymer [Kurokawa and Minoura, 1979]. Similar results were obtained in the copolymerizations of mono- and di-/-menthyl fumarate and (—)-3-(P-styryloxy)menthane with styrene [Kurokawa et al., 1982],... [Pg.707]

Configurationally chiral, optically active polymers having stereogerric centers in the side chain or main chain can be obtained by enantiomer-selective pol5nnerization (lUPAC nomenclature asymmetric enantiomer-differentiating polymerization). In enantiomer-selective polymerization, one antipode of a racemic chiral monomer is preferentially polymerized to afibrd an optically active polymer. In this process, kinetic resolution of the racemic monomer takes place. The first clear polymerization of this typ>e was reported for propylene oxide. [Pg.631]

In the literature concerning the ROP of heterocyclic monomers, the asymmetric, enantiomer-differentiating polymerization and racemate-forming enantiomer-differentiating polymerization are informally named... [Pg.236]

The tendency of the sec-butyl group to chiral disordering led [30], however, to the possibility of achieving an absolute asymmetric polymerization. Racemic (1) is dimorphic. Crystalline form >1, which may be obtained from the melt, has space group Pi with Z= 1 and cell constants a = 13.35, b = 7.02, c = 5.42, a = 104°,i8 = 93°, y = 92°. These cell constants are similar to, but significantly different from, those of crystals of the resolved monomer. Thus crystallization of racemic (1) involves not spontaneous resolution but formation of a solid solution of the two enantiomers. Details of the X-ray diffraction patterns as also results by differential scanning calorimetry support this view. Thus we have an example of the behavior ... [Pg.194]
