Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention is concerned with novel linear and cyclic polymers or oligomers having a photoreactive ethene group for use as orientating layers for liquid crystals.
BACKGROUND OF THE ART
The alignment of liquid crystal phases in cells can be brought about in various ways and is usually effected by rubbing a glass plate coated with a polymer layer or by the inclined vapour deposition of a SiOx layer on a glass plate. Generally uniformly aligned layers are produced in this manner.
It is, however, also possible to obtain a structured orientation of the liquid crystal phase. This can be achieved, for example, by coating a glass plate with a polymer with which are admixed, for example, photochemically orientatable dyestuff molecules or photochemically dimerizable molecules, as described, for example, in EP-A-0445629. These methods are, however, not optimal, since on the one hand the solubility of such orientatable molecules in the polymer is limited and on the other hand the stability with time can not be guaranteed to a sufficient extent. A further possibility for the production of photochemically orientatable polymer layers is described, for example, in Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. Vol. 31 (1992), 2155 and comprises esterifying the free hydroxy groups on the polymer with dimerizable units. A disadvantage of this method is, however, the fact that the esterification of the free hydroxy groups on the polymer with photochemically dimerizable units usually leads to a non-reproducible and, above all, to an incomplete conversion. The free hydroxy groups still present in the orientating layer lead to an undesired ion solubility.
There is therefore a need to find an orientating layer which no longer has the aforementioned disadvantages.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to a polymer having isomerization/dimerization units of the general formula: ##STR3## wherein Ma, Mb, Mc signify monomer units for homo- or copolymers;
x, y, z indicate mole fractions of the copolymers, whereby in each case 0<x≦1; 0≦y≦1 and 0≦z<1;
Sa, Sb represent spacer units;
Za, Zb represent molecule units which can undergo photochemical isomerization/dimerization;
n is a magnitude of 4-100 000 and
m is 0 or 1.
The monomer units Ma, Mb and Mc set forth in formula I are units for the formation of homopolymers or copolymers and have, in the is scope of the present invention, the structures which are usual in polymer chemistry. Such monomer units are, for example, acrylate, methacrylate, 2-chloroacrylate, 2-phenylacrylate, acryloylphenylene, acrylamide, methacrylamide, 2-choroacrylamide, 2-phenylacrylamide, vinyl ether, styrene derivatives, vinyl ester, maleic acid derivatives, fumaric acid derivatives, siloxanes, epoxides and the like. Acrylate, methacrylate, 2-chloroacrylate, acrylamide, methacrylamide, 2-chloroacrylamide, styrene derivatives, siloxanes and the like are preferred monomer units.
Under the term "copolymers" there are to be understood not only statistical copolymers but also alternating copolymers, for example alternating copolymers from maleic acid derivatives with styrene. Statistical copolymers are preferably used. Homopolymers embrace linear and cyclic polymers such as, for example, cyclic polysiloxane.
Polymers in which z=0, but especially homopolymers of formula 1-A: ##STR4## are especially preferred.
The spacer units Sa and, respectively, Sb join the isomerization/dimerization unit (Za and, respectively, Zb) with the monomer unit (Ma and, respectively, Mb). Such spacer units are known per se. In the present instance the term "spacer units" Sa and Sb signifies, for example, independently of one another, an alkylene chain with 1 to 10, preferably with 1 to 4, carbon atoms, a cycloalkylene group with 3 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably with 5 or 6 carbon atoms, in which optionally one or two methylene groups can be replaced by NH groups, or phenylene, which can be substituted with lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, --CN, --NO2, but especially with halogen, or carbonate, an ester group, an amide group, an ether group and the like or a combination of the said groups.

The isomerization/dimerization units Za and Zb are molecule units which can undergo either photochemical cis/trans-isomerization and photochemical [2+2] cycloaddition and thus lead to a cross-linking of the polymer or oligomer. The isomerization/dimerization units Za and Zb are, as already mentioned, linked via the spacer Sa to the monomer unit Ma, or via a spacer Sb to the monomer unit Mb and each independently have the general formula ##STR5## In formula II, ring A1 signifies 1,4-phenylene, which is unsubstituted or substituted with halogen, cyano and/or nitro and in which 1 or 2 CH groups can be replaced by nitrogen, or 2,5-thiophenediyl, 2,5-furanylene, 1,4- or 2,6-naphthylene, in which a CH group can be replaced by nitrogen;

The polymers of formula I are readily accessible. The monomers are firstly synthesized from the individual components, that is from the isomerization/dimerization unit of formula II, the spacers (Sa, Sb) and the polymerizable parts (Ma, Mb or Mc). The formation of the polymer is subsequently effected in a manner known per se. The polymerization can be effected, for example, in the melt or in solution with the exclusion of oxygen and in the presence of a radical initiator which can generate radicals thermally, photochemically or by a redox reaction. The reaction can be effected in a temperature range of -10° C. to 120° C., preferably in a range of 20° C. to 100° C.
For the production of polymer layers in regions selectively limited by area, a solution of the polymer material obtained can, for example, firstly be prepared and then spread out in a spin-coating apparatus on a carrier coated with an electrode (for example, a glass plate coated with indium-tin oxide) (ITC) such that homogeneous layers of 0.05-50 μm thickness result. Simultaneously, irradiation can be applied to the region to be isomerized and dimerized (to be crosslinked), for example with a mercury high-pressure lamp, a xenon lamp or a pulsed UV laser using a polarizer and optionally a mask for the formation of structures. The duration of irradiation depends on the capacity of the individual lamps and can vary from a few minutes to several hours. The cross-linkage can, however, also be effected by irradiating the homogeneous layer using filters which for example let through only radiation suitable for the cross-linkage reaction.

In the following Examples Tg signifies the glass temperature, Δcp signifies the change in the specific heat capacity at constant pressure, ΔH signifies the transition enthalpy, log Io /I signifies the extinction, ε signifies the molar decadic absorption coefficients, C signifies a crystalline phase, S signifies a smectic phase, N signifies a nematic phase and I signifies the isotropic phase.
EXAMPLE 1
1 g of methacryloyloxyethyl 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylate and 0.002 g of azobisisobutyronitrile were dissolved in 4 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The solution was flushed for 10 minutes with a weak nitrogen stream and the reaction vessel was subsequently closed air-tight. The solution was heated to 60° C. for 24 hours. Thereafter, the reaction vessel was opened and the solution was diluted with 5 ml of tetrahydrofuran while stirring. Subsequently, the diluted solution was added dropwise to 450 ml of diethyl ether while stirring at room temperature. The separated polymer was filtered off, dried, dissolved in 30 ml of dichlormethane and this solution was added dropwise to 450 ml of diethyl ether. This procedure was repeated twice. Filtration and drying at 50° C. in a vacuum gave 0.4 g of poly(methacryloyloxyethyl 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylate), Tg. 123° C., cl.p. (S-I) 160° C.;
The methacryloyloxyethyl 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylate used as the starting material was prepared as follows:
(a). A solution of 10 g of 4-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl in 150 ml of toluene was treated dropwise at 0° C. with 65 ml of a 1M solution of diisobutylaluminium hydride in toluene while gassing with nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then treated dropwise with 340 ml of 1N sulphuric acid, stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, poured into 1,000 ml of water and then extracted three times with 100 ml of ethyl acetate each time. The combined organic phases were washed twice with 50 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution each time, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and subsequently concentrated. Chromatographic purification of the residue on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate (vol. 9:1) gave 10.1 g of 4-pentyl-4'-biphenylcarboxaldehyde.
(b). A mixture of 11.9 g of phosphonoacetic acid P,P-diethyltrimethylsilyl ester in 370 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran was placed at 0° C. while gassing with nitrogen and then treated dropwise with 27.7 ml of a 1.6M solution of butyllithium in hexane. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, then treated with a solution of 10.1 g of 4-pentyl-4'-biphenylcarboxaldehyde and 15 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran, stirred at room temperature for a further 1.5 hours, poured into 100 ml of water and then extracted three times with 50 ml of ethyl acetate each time. The combined organic phases were washed twice with 50 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution each time, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and subsequently concentrated. Two-fold recrystallization of the crude product from ethyl alcohol gave 17.0 g of 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylic acid, m.p. (C-N) 209° C. and cl.p. (N-I) 284° C. (decompositon).
(c). 9.4 g of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide were added at 0° C. within 15 minutes while stirring to a solution of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 11.6 g of 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylic acid and 1.21 g of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine in 300 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then filtered, the filtrate was poured into water and extracted three times with 50 ml of ethyl acetate each time. The combined organic phases were washed twice with 50 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution each time, is dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and subsequently concentrated. Chromatographic purification of the residue on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate (vol. 9:1) and two-fold recrystallization from ethyl alcohol of the fractions which were pure according to thin-layer chromotography gave 4.5 g of methacryloyloxyethyl 3-(E)-[4-pentyl-4'-biphenyl]acrylate, m.p. 72° C.

EXAMPLE 2
1.5 g of 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-[4-(4-methoxyphenyl carbonyloxy)phenyl]acrylate and 0.003 g of azobisisobutyronitrile were dissolved in 6.8 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The solution was flushed for 10 minutes with a weak argon stream and subsequently the reaction vessel was closed air-tight. The solution was heated to 60° C. for 20 hours. Thereafter, the reaction vessel was opened and the solution was diluted with 3.5 ml of tetrahydrofuran while stirring. Subsequently, the diluted solution was added dropwise to 300 ml of diethyl ether at room temperature while stirring. The separated polymer was filtered off, dried, dissolved in 10 ml of dichlormethane and this solution was added dropwise to 300 ml of diethyl ether. This procedure was repeated twice. Filtration and drying at 50° C. in a vacuum gave 1.15 g of poly(4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-[4-(4-methoxyphenylcarbonyloxy)phenyl]acrylate). The polymer has a glass stage at Tg=38° C. (Δcp =0.17 J/gK) and a clearing point (SA -I) at 202° C. (ΔH=6.9 J/g).
The 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-[4-(4-methoxyphenylcarbonyloxy)phenyl]acrylate used as the starting material was prepared as follows:
a) 5 g of (E)-4-hydroxycinnamic acid were dissolved in a solution of 2.8 g of potassium hydroxide in 25 ml of water. Four 1 g portions of ethyl chloroformate were added to the ice-cooled solution and the mixture was stirred intensively for 10 minutes after each addition. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for a further 30 minutes and subsequently neutralized with 2N hydrochloric acid. The crude product was filtered off and recrystallised twice from ethanol/water (vol. 8:2). This gave 5.7 g of 4-(E)-ethyloxycarbonyloxycinnamic acid, m.p. 173°-176° C.
b) A solution of 5.2 g of 4-(E)-ethyloxycarbonyloxycinnamic acid in 20 ml of thionyl chloride and 0.05 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide was heated under reflux for 3 hours. Subsequently, excess thionyl chloride was distilled off. 3.3 g of 4-hydroxybutyl methacrylate were added dropwise to a solution of the resulting 4-(E)-ethyloxycarbonyloxycinnamoyl chloride in 15 ml of pyridine while stirring at 0° C. within 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for a further 12 hours, then poured into water and extracted three times with 50 ml of ethyl acetate each time. The combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and subsequently concentrated. Chromatographic purification on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate (vol. 7:3) gave 3 g of 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-(4-ethoxycarbonyloxyphenyl)acrylate, m.p. 54°-56° C.
c) 5 g of 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-(4-ethoxycarbonyloxyphenyl)acrylate were dissolved in 40 ml of pyridine and treated at room temperature with a mixture of 60 ml of acetone and 7 ml of 25% aqueous ammonia solution. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. After distillation of the acetone the mixture was neutralized with 2N hydrochloric acid, diluted with 100 ml of water and subsequently extracted 3 times with 100 ml of diethyl ether each time. The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated. Chromatographic purification of the residue on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate (vol. 7:3) gave 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate.
d) 2.0 g of 4-methoxybenzoyl chloride in 25 ml of dichlormethane were added dropwise at 0° C. while stirring within 30 min. to a solution of 3.5 g of 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylate and 1.2 g of triethylamine in 40 ml of dichloromethane. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then filtered and subsequently concentrated. Chromatographic purification of the residue on silica gel with hexane/ethyl acetate (vol. 7:3) and two-fold recrystallization from ethanol gave 4.5 g of 4-methacryloyloxybutyl (E)-3-[4-(4-methoxyphenylcarbonyloxy)phenyl]acrylate, m.p. 89°-90° C.

EXAMPLE 6
1.63 g of 2-methyl-acrylic acid (E)-1-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)acryloyl]-piperidin-4-yl ester and 0.0081 g of azobisisobutyronitrile were dissolved in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The solution was flushed for 10 minutes with a weak argon stream. Subsequently, the reaction vessel was closed air-tight. The mixture was heated to 60° C.; for 19 hours. Thereafter, the reaction vessel was opened and the solution was added dropwise while stirring to 300 ml of diethyl ether at room temperature. The separated polymer was filtered off, dried, dissolved in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran and this solution was again added dropwise to 300 ml of diethyl ether. This procedure was repeated twice. Filtration and drying at 50° C. in a vacuum gave 1.33 g of poly[1-[1-[(E)-3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-acryloyl]-piperidin-4-yloxycarbonyl]-1-methyl-ethylene]. The polymer has a glass stage at Tg =143° C. (Δcp =0.30 J/gK).
The 2-methyl-acrylic acid (E)-1-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)acryloyl]-piperidin-4-yl ester used as the starting material was prepared as follows:
a) Firstly 2.1 g of cyanuric chloride and subsequently 3.2 ml of triethylamine were slowly added at room temperature to a solution of 4.06 g of p-methoxycinnamic acid in 100 ml of dry acetone. After three hours the separated byproduct was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The p-methoxycinnamoyl chloride which remained as the residue was taken up in 50 ml of dry methylene chloride and processed immediately.
3.5 ml of trimethylsilyl chloride were added dropwise in an argon atmosphere to a solution, cooled to 0° C., of 2.8 g of 4-hydroxypiperidine in 100 ml of dry methylene chloride. After stirring at 0° C. for two hours the solution was treated with 2 ml of triethylamine. The previously prepared p-methoxycinnamoyl chloride in 50 ml of methylene chloride was added dropwise to this mixture while cooling with ice. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight and then warmed slowly to room temperature. Subsequently, it was filtered over a thin layer of silica gel. After the methylene chloride had been removed completely in a vacuum the residue remaining was taken up in 50 ml of methanol and, after the addition of 2.7 g of citric acid, stirred at room temperature for three hours. For purification, the mixture was evaporated to dryness in a vacuum, the crude product was taken up in 100 ml of methylene chloride and washed with the same amount of semi-saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The aqueous phase was extracted twice with 50 ml of methylene chloride each time. Subsequently, the organic phases were combined, dried over magnesium sulphate, treated with 2 g of silica gel and filtered. After removing the solvent 6.65g of 4-hydroxy-(E)-1-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-acryloyl]-piperidine remained as a yellow oil.
b) A solution of 6.65 g of 4-hydroxy-(E)-1-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)acryloyl]-piperidine in 50 ml of methylene chloride was treated with 4 ml of triethylamine at 0° C. while gassing with argon. 2.7 ml of methacryloyl chloride were added dropwise within 15 minutes. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness in a vacuum. Chromatographic purification of the residue on silica gel with ether/hexane (vol. 4:1) gave 4.21 g of 2-methyl-acrylic acid (E)-I-[3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-acryloyl]-piperidin-4-yl ester as a colourless oil. λmax (methylene chloride)=292.5 nm (ε=22775 l mol-1 cm-1).
