Chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer

Polymeric benzaldehyde. Frechet and Pelle have prepared a polymeric form of benzaldehyde by chloromethylation of a divinylbenzene—styrene copolymer followed by oxidation of the chloromethylated product with DMSO. The reagent was used to protect the 4- and 6-hydroxyl group of methyl a-D-glucopyranoside (1) by formation of the acetal (2), which can then be converted...

Nagakawa and co-workers [47] applied Py-GC to a structural study of various chloromethyl substituted PS copolymers prepared by different methods and they applied (TGA) gravimetric analysis to the dehydrochlorination and thermal degradation behaviour of these copolymers. Typical pyrograms of ST-DVB, styrene-chloromethylstyrene-divinylbenzene (ST-Cl-MST-DVB and chlorinated p-methyl styrene divinylbenzene copolymers are shown in Figures 1.5-1.7.

To illustrate the specific operations involved, the scheme below shows the first steps and the final detachment reaction of a peptide synthesis starting from the carboxyl terminal. N-Boc-glycine is attached to chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resin. This polymer swells in organic solvents but is completely insoluble. ) Treatment with HCl in acetic acid removes the fert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group as isobutene and carbon dioxide. The resulting amine hydrochloride is neutralized with triethylamine in DMF. 

The first, and still widely used, polymer-supported ester is formed from an amino acid and a chloromethylated copolymer of styrene-divinylbenzene. Originally it was cleaved by basic hydrolysis (2 N NaOH, FtOH, 25°, 1 h). Subsequently, it has been cleaved by hydrogenolysis (H2/Pd-C, DMF, 40°, 60 psi, 24 h, 71% yield), and by HF, which concurrently removes many amine protective groups. Monoesterification of a symmetrical dicarboxylic acid chloride can be effected by reaction with a hydroxymethyl copolymer of styrene-divinylbenzene to give an ester a mono salt of a diacid was converted into a dibenzyl polymer. ... 

Initial solid phase synthesis25 was carried out on Merrifield s resin (1 % crosslinked chloromethylated styrene/divinylbenzene copolymer, 200-400 mesh) because of its track record in solid-phase peptide synthesis.26 Unfortunately, the Merrifield resin has limitations as a carbohydrate carrier to study interactions between the carbohydrates and relevant binding proteins. The hydrophobic nature of the resin leads to nonspecific, irreversible protein adsorption.27 Later work utilized Rapp s TentaGel, an amphiphilic, polyethylene glycol resin.28... 

Plastic film membranes can also contain fixed ion-exchange groups. Jyo and coworkers [79] chloromethylated Amberlite XAD-2 (cross-linked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer of the macroreticular type) and formed quaternary ammonium groups in the product by treatment with dimethyltetradecylamine. They converted the substance into the chloride, nitrate or perchlorate form and saturated it with nitrobenzene. The presence of hydrophobic ion-exchange sites... 

Cholestyramine Cholestyramine (20.1.2) is a copolymer of divinylbenzene and styrene, which undergoes chloromethylation and afterwards is reacted with triethylamine [5]. 

Strong Base Anion Exchangers. As in the synthesis of weak base anion exchangers, strong base resins are manufactured from styrenic as well as acrylic copolymers. Those based on copolymers of styrene and divinylbenzene are chloromethylated and then aminated. These reactions are the same as for the styrenic weakbase resins. The essential difference is the amine used for amination. Trimethylamine [75-50-3], N(CH3)3, and A/,A/-dimethylethanolamine [108-01-0], (CH3)2NCH2CH2OH, are most commonly used. Both form quaternary ammonium functional groups similar to (8). 

Polymeric supports can also be used with advantage to form monofunctional moieties from difunctional (Hies. Leznoff has used this principal in the synthesis of sex attractants on polymer supports (67). Starting from a sheap symmetrical diol he blocked one hydroxyl group by the polymer. Functionalization of cross-linked polymers is mostly performed by chloromethylation (65). A very promising method to introduce functional groups into crosslinked styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers is the direct lithiation with butyllithium in presence of N,N,N, N -tetramethyl-ethylenediamine (TMEDA) (69, 70). Metalation of linear polystyrene with butyl-lithium/TMEDA showed no exchange of benzylic hydrogen and a ratio of attack at m/p-position of 2 1 (71). In the model reaction of cumene with amylsodium, a kinetic control of the reaction path is established. After 3h of treatment with amyl-sodiuni, cumene is metalated 42% in a-, 39% m-, and 19% p-position. After 20h the mixture equilibrates to affort 100% of the thermodynamically more stable a-prod-uct (72). 

Anchoring polymers are prepared from chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers of either 1 equiv Cl/g or 4 equiv Cl/g capacity. These resins arc stirred for 24 h in refluxing CHC13, with either 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, hexamethylenetetramine, or TMEDA. The polymers are filtered off, washed with ClIClj, acetone and Et20, then dried overnight under vacuum at 25 °C. Nitrogen elemental analysis and chloride ion titration gives a value of 80-90% quaternarization. 

Subsequently D Alello developed the polystyrene-hased resin in 1944 (4). Two years later, polystyrene anion-exchange resins made hy chloromethylation and amination of the matrix were produced. Four principal classes of ion-exchange resins were commercially availahle by the 1950s. These are the strong-acid, strong-hase, and weak-hase resins derived from styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers, and the weak-acid resins derived from cross-linked acrylics. To this day, the most widely used ion exchangers are synthetic organic polymer resins based on styrene- or acrylic-acid-type monomers as described by D Alelio in U.S. Patent 2,3666,007.
