Styrene-methyl acrylate

Heck type vinylation of 4-bromo-l-(4-methylphenylsulfonyl)-indole proceeds in good yield with such alkenes as methyl acrylate, styrene and N-vinylphthalimide using Pd(OAc)2 (5 mol%) and tri-o-tolylphosphine as the... 

Under these conditions activated olefins such as methyl acrylate, styrene and vinyl phenylsulfoxide were found to be effective in reacting with 12 (22). 

The theoretical interpretation of the results was made (334) in terms of the molecular orbital perturbation theory, in particular, of the FMO theory (CNDO-2 method), using the model of the concerted formation of both new bonds through the cyclic transition state. In this study, the authors provided an explanation for the regioselectivity of the process and obtained a series of comparative reactivities of dipolarophiles (methyl acrylate > styrene), which is in agreement with the experimental data. However, in spite of similar tendencies, the experimental series of comparative reactivities of nitronates (249) toward methyl acrylate (250a) and styrene (250b) are not consistent with the calculated series (see Chart 3.17). This is attributed to the fact that calculation methods are insufficiently correct and the... 

Penultimate effects have been observed for many comonomer pairs. Among these are the radical copolymerizations of styrene-fumaronitrile, styrene-diethyl fumarate, ethyl methacrylate-styrene, methyl methacrylate l-vinylpyridine, methyl acrylate-1,3-butadiene, methyl methacrylate-methyl acrylate, styrene-dimethyl itaconate, hexafluoroisobutylene-vinyl acetate, 2,4-dicyano-l-butene-isoprene, and other comonomer pairs [Barb, 1953 Brown and Fujimori, 1987 Buback et al., 2001 Burke et al., 1994a,b, 1995 Cowie et al., 1990 Davis et al., 1990 Fordyce and Ham, 1951 Fukuda et al., 2002 Guyot and Guillot, 1967 Hecht and Ojha, 1969 Hill et al., 1982, 1985 Ma et al., 2001 Motoc et al., 1978 Natansohn et al., 1978 Prementine and Tirrell, 1987 Rounsefell and Pittman, 1979 Van Der Meer et al., 1979 Wu et al., 1990 Yee et al., 2001 Zetterlund et al., 2002]. Although ionic copolymerizations have not been as extensively studied, penultimate effects have been found in some cases. Thus in the anionic polymerization of styrene t-vinylpyri-dine, 4-vinylpyridine adds faster to chains ending in 4-vinylpyridine if the penultimate unit is styrene [Lee et al., 1963]. 

The complex participation model has been tested in the radical copolymerizations of 1,1-diphenylethylene-methyl acrylate, styrene-P-cyanoacrolein, vinyl acetate-hexafluoroace-tone, A-vinylcarbazole diethyl fumarate, A-vinylcarbazole funiaronitrile, maleic anhydride-vinyl acetate, styrene-maleic anhydride [Burke et al., 1994a,b, 1995 Cais et al., 1979 Coote and Davis, 2002 Coote et al., 1998 Dodgson and Ebdon, 1977 Fujimori and Craven, 1986 Georgiev and Zubov, 1978 Litt, 1971 Lift and Seiner, 1971 Yoshimura et al., 1978]. 

IR, Raman and 13C NMR spectroscopic studies have been performed on various [Ir(acac)(L)2] complexes (L = ethylene, propene, vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, methyl acrylate, styrene) for the elucidation of the bonding between Ir and the alkene ligand.142 Also, the square planar iridium(I) acetylacetonate complexes [Ir(LL)(L )2], where LL is a /J-diketonate and L is CO or ethylene, have been studied by UVPES.143 The enthalpies of reaction of the crystalline [Ir(acac)(L)2] complexes with gaseous CO (reaction 28) have been determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The enthalpies for the gaseous reaction have been derived from these results and Ir—L bond strengths estimated.143... 

Consider the copolymerization of 1,3-butadiene with the following monomers n-butyl vinyl ether, methyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, styrene, vinyl acetate, acrylonitrile, maleic anhydride. If the copolymerizations were carried out using cationic initiation, what would be expected qualitatively for the copolymer compositions List the copolymers in order of their increasing butadiene content. Would copolymers be formed from each of the comonomer pairs Explain what would be observed if one used anionic initiation ... 

A large variety of alkenes have been used as dipolarophiles, dienes, allylsilanes, ethyl and methyl acrylates, styrenes, methylene cyclopropanes, vinylketones, polyfunctionalized acrylates, etc., giving... 

Heck reactions(P) of Br-PHT using methyl acrylate, styrene, and 4-vinylbiphenyl could also occur, but H NMR analysis showed that the extent of substitution was relatively low (29-51 % for MA-PHT, St-PHT, and VBPh-PHT). 

These equations are consistent with the work of Nomura and Fujita [82]. The validity of Eqs. (4.36)- (4.38) was confirmed experimentally for the emulsion copolymerizations of the styrene-methyl acrylate, styrene-n-butyl acrylate and methyl acrylate-n-butyl acrylate pairs. As a result of this...
