Stereospecific Polymerization of o-Methoxy-α-methylstyrene

Stereospecific carbene polymerization with oxygenated Rh(diene) species.

Polymers bearing polar functionalities are important materials, since they exhibit beneficial properties with respect to adhesion, paint/printability and surface properties. Commercial synthesis of these materials is mainly based on radical processes, which (so far) only allow poor control over the stereochemistry of the resulting polymers. 2 ] Stereo-controlled polymerisation generally require...

Highly trans-stereospecific Isoprene Polymerization by Neodymium Borohydrido Catalysts

Highly diastereoselective cyclopropanation of α-methylstyrene catalysed by a C2-symmetrical chiral iron porphyrin complex.

A new chiral iron porphyrin-based catalyst performed α-methylstyrene stereoselective cyclopropanation with excellent yields (up to 99%), enantio- and diastereoselectivities (ee(trans) up to 87%, trans/cis ratios up to 99 : 1) and outstanding TON and TOF values (up to 20,000 and 120,000 h(-1) respectively).

Synthesis of hypergrafted poly[4-(N,N-diphenylamino)methylstyrene] through tandem anionic-radical polymerization of radical-inimer

In this paper, we present a tandem anionic-radical approach for synthesizing hypergrafted polymers. We prepared 4-(N,N-diphenylamino)methylstyrene (DPAMS) as a new radical-based inimer. Linear PDPAMS was prepared through anionic polymerization. Hypergrafted PDPAMS was synthesized through the self-condensing vinyl polymerization of DPAMS with linear PDPAMS. The linear backbone of PDPAMS, which i...
