Propylene-based polymers synthesis

Chiral polymers have been applied in many areas of research, including chiral separation of organic molecules, asymmetric induction in organic synthesis, and wave guiding in non-linear optics [ 146,147]. Two distinct classes of polymers represent these optically active materials those with induced chirality based on the catalyst and polymerization mechanism and those produced from chiral monomers. Achiral monomers like propylene have been polymerized stereoselectively using chiral initiators or catalysts yielding isotactic, helical polymers [148-150]. On the other hand, polymerization of chiral monomers such as diepoxides, dimethacrylates, diisocyanides, and vinyl ethers yields chiral polymers by incorporation of chirality into the main chain of the polymer or as a pedant side group [151-155]. A number of chiral metathesis catalysts have been made, and they have proven useful in asymmetric ROM as well as in stereospecific polymerization of norbornene and norbornadiene [ 156-159]. This section of the review will focus on the ADMET polymerization of chiral monomers as a method of chiral polymer synthesis. [Pg.27]

Catalysts based on the Hf pyridyl amine complexes 126-128 have been used for the preparation of ethylene/ propylene co-polymers as well as of ethylene/propylene/l-octene terpolymers. These co-polymers are characterized by having at least 60 wt% propylene units, Mw around 300000, and Mw/Mn in the range 2.0-2.4. The NMR analysis of these co-polymers showed that the propylene sequences are remarkably isotactic mm > 90%) and showed the presence of regioirregularly inserted propylene units(<0.5% mol). The most interesting property of catalysts based on 126-128 is their high thermal stability.1119 Using modifications of isospecific bis(phenoxy-amine)-based catalysts, such as complex 164, the controlled synthesis of iPP- /orjf-poly/E-co-P) diblock co-poly-mers has been achieved. This is a remarkable result since iPP and PE are both polymeric materials of extreme industrial relevance.1206... [Pg.1144]

With the introduction of oil-based polymers such as poly[ethylene], poly[propylene], poly[styrene], poly[ethylene terephthalate] and poly[vinyl chloride] the packaging industry has been truly revolutionised. Despite the advances in polymer synthesis and processing, their end of life still poses a problem [159]. The first choice for processing plastic waste is reuse, but only some plastics can be reused after proper processing, and... [Pg.785]

Physical, chemical and biochemical conversion of plant-based oligo- and polymers into industrial bulk products as well as into specialties is a well established technology, which favourably extends the product spectrum obtained through petrochemical synthesis. Volumewise, less than SO million tons p.a. of chemical intermediates and end-products are derived from renewable plant-based raw materials and constitute less than 15% of about 400 million tons provided by petrochemistry. This imbalance is not so much a result of a relative shortage or lack of availability of renewables compared to petrochemical feedstocks, rather, it reflects the versatility of ethylene, propylene and olefin based chemical synthesis in meeting the product and product range requirements of an industrialized world. [Pg.28]

There are two different ways of making 2-ethoxyoctane from 2-octanol using the Williamson ether synthesis. When pure (—)-2-octanol of specific rotation —8.24° is treated with sodium metal and then ethyl iodide, the product is 2-ethoxyoc-tane with a specific rotation of —15.6°. When pure (—)-2-octanol is treated with tosyl chloride and pyridine and then with sodium ethoxide, the product is also 2-ethoxyoctane. Predict the rotation of the 2-ethoxyoctane made using the tosy-lation/sodium ethoxide procedure, and propose a detailed mechanism to support your predictioa 14-43 Under base-catalyzed conditions, several molecules of propylene oxide can react to give short polymers. Propose a mechanism for the base-catalyzed formation of the following trimer. [Pg.660]

Various metal complex systems of Ziegler type are widely applied within industry for the production of high-density polyethylene, isotactic polypropylene, 1,4-c/s-and 1,4- rans-polymers of isoprene and 1,2-poly butadiene, and many other types of copolymers, such as ones based on ethylene and propylene, which could not be produced earlier based on traditional methods of synthesis. [Pg.145]
