Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization of N,N-Dimethylacrylamide

Rademacher, Jude T., Baum, Marina, Pallack, Mical E., Brittain, William J., Simonsick, William J.·2000·Macromolecules

Abstract

The polymerization of N,N -dimethylacrylamide (DMA) under atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) conditions was studied. The ligand, solvent (water, n -butanol, and toluene), initiator, and Cu halide were varied. High monomer conversions were obtained using the Me 4 Cyclam ligand. Polymerizations in water that were initiated at room temperature were complete within minutes. However, none of the experimental conditions produced a controlled polymerization. This conclusion is based on broad molecular weight distributions, poor agreement between theoretical and experimental M n, incremental monomer addition experiments, and end group analysis. We believe that the Cu salts complex to the amide group of the chain ends and stabilize the radical. This stabilization retards the deactivation step in ATRP and produces an unacceptably high concentration of radicals which leads to spontaneous termination reactions. In addition, we have indirect evidence for a cyclization reaction involving nucleophilic Br displacement by the penultimate amide nitrogen; this cyclic onium intermediate undergoes hydrolysis to form a hydroxy-terminated polymer.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
