Description

Method for synthesizing block polymer in one pot by ultraviolet light induction
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of polymerization, and particularly relates to an ultraviolet light-induced one-pot synthesis method of a block polymer.
Background
The functional block copolymer is a linear copolymer formed by the alternate polymerization of chain segments with different chemical structures, and can combine the excellent properties of all the blocks to obtain a polymer material with more excellent performance. The combination of two polymerization methods, atom transfer radical polymerization and ring-opening polymerization, in living radical polymerization, to prepare two-block copolymers of polystyrene, polyacrylic acid (methyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, etc.) and biodegradable polyester (polylactic acid, polycaprolactone, polypentanolide, etc.) has become a hot point of research. The two active polymerization methods are respectively suitable for monomers with different structure types, so that the structural advantages of the two types of monomers can be combined to obtain the functional block copolymer with different two-block performances. But in the two polymerization processes, the polymerization is performed again after separation and purification and terminal functionalization synthesis of the macromolecular initiator after one-time polymerization, on one hand, in the process, the active group at the terminal is not easy to graft, the functionalization rate is low, and thus the initiation activity of the initiation site is low; on the other hand, the intermediate separation and purification steps waste time and resources, and the transition metal complex catalyst used in the atom transfer radical polymerization is not consumed in the polymerization process and is difficult to purify, and the metal residues can limit the application of the polymer.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, the present invention provides an ultraviolet light-induced one-pot block polymer synthesis method, which uses an organic small molecule as a catalyst (capable of catalyzing atom transfer radical polymerization and ring-opening polymerization), and combines a dual-site initiator (one end initiates ring-opening polymerization and the other end initiates atom transfer radical polymerization) to obtain a block polymer with high monomer conversion rate (over 60%), a molecular weight meeting a theoretical value, and a narrow molecular weight distribution (< 1.5).
In order to achieve the technical purpose, the invention provides an ultraviolet light-induced one-pot synthesis method of a block polymer. Different from the traditional polymerization mode, the method provided by the invention mainly utilizes a multifunctional catalyst of triaryl ammonium hexafluorophosphate capable of catalyzing atom transfer radical polymerization and ring opening polymerization and a multifunctional initiator simultaneously having a ring opening polymerization initiating group and an atom transfer radical polymerization initiating group to induce acrylate monomers and cyclic ester monomers to respectively react in a one-pot method under the induction of ultraviolet light, thereby obtaining the block polymer. In summary, the method comprises the steps of:
polymerizing a multifunctional catalyst, a multifunctional initiator and two monomers (a first monomer and a second monomer) under the induction of ultraviolet light, and fully reacting to obtain a block polymer;
or polymerizing a system containing a multifunctional catalyst, a multifunctional initiator and a first monomer under the induction of ultraviolet light for a certain time; then adding a second monomer, continuing to polymerize under the induction of ultraviolet light, and fully reacting to obtain a block polymer;
when the first monomer is an acrylate monomer, the second monomer is a cyclic ester monomer; when the first monomer is a cyclic ester monomer, the second monomer is an acrylate monomer.
The invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
an ultraviolet light-induced one-pot synthesis method of a block polymer comprises the following steps: dissolving a catalyst, an initiator, an acrylate monomer and a cyclic ester monomer in a solvent, placing the solvent in an inert gas environment for reaction, polymerizing under the condition of magnetic stirring and ultraviolet light irradiation at room temperature, finally dissolving a polymer by tetrahydrofuran, precipitating in methanol, separating and drying to obtain the polymer.
Or dissolving the catalyst, the initiator and the acrylate monomer (or the cyclic ester monomer) in a solvent, placing the solvent in an inert gas environment for reaction, polymerizing under the condition of magnetic stirring and ultraviolet irradiation at room temperature, adding the cyclic ester monomer (or the acrylate monomer) after a certain time, continuing to perform ultraviolet irradiation under magnetic stirring, finally dissolving the polymer by tetrahydrofuran, precipitating in methanol, separating and drying to obtain the polymer.
Further, the molar ratio of the acrylate monomer to the cyclic ester monomer to the initiator to the catalyst is 50-100:50-100:1: 0.5-1.5.
Further, the catalyst is selected from organic small molecule triaryl ammonium hexafluorophosphate (TSPF 6) with the CAS number of 109037-77-6.
Further, the initiator is selected from tribromoethanol, ethylene glycol bromoisobutyrate and the like, wherein one end of the initiator is provided with a hydroxyl group (capable of initiating ring-opening polymerization), and the other end of the initiator is provided with bromine (capable of initiating atom transfer radical polymerization).
Based on the above principle, those skilled in the art can select the types of the acrylate monomers and the cyclic ester monomers according to actual needs. The two types of monomers are respectively made to belong to two different reaction types of atom transfer radical polymerization and ring opening polymerization, so that the atom transfer radical polymerization and the ring opening polymerization are not influenced mutually.
Further, the acrylate monomer is selected from methyl methacrylate, diaminoethyl methacrylate, glycidyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, trifluoroethyl methacrylate, acrylonitrile, butyl acrylate, butyl methacrylate, lauryl methacrylate or benzyl methacrylate.
Further, the cyclic ester monomer is selected from L-lactide, valerolactone, caprolactone, tetrahydrofuran, trimethylene carbonate and the like.
Further, the solvent is selected from propylene carbonate, tetrahydrofuran, NN-dimethylformamide, NN-dimethylacetamide, toluene, dichloromethane, trichloromethane or dimethyl sulfoxide.
The method can be used for synthesizing the polyester (lactic acid) -b-polyacrylate block copolymer.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1) the catalyst is cheap and easy to obtain, has low toxicity (no odor and no color), has high solubility, can catalyze atom transfer radical polymerization and ring opening polymerization, has no metal residue in the obtained block polymer, and has huge application potential in the fields of fine chemical engineering, intelligent drug loading and biological materials.
2) The method is based on living radical polymerization, and the obtained polymer has the characteristic of living polymerization, and the obtained polymer has high monomer conversion rate (more than 60 percent), molecular weight according with theoretical value and narrow molecular weight distribution (< 1.4).
3) The reaction condition is mild (room temperature), the experimental process is simple to operate, the separation and purification steps between two kinds of polymerization are omitted by one-pot operation, and the time and resources are saved.
