چکیده

We report a metal-free strategy for the chain-end modification of RAFT polymers utilizing visible light. By turning the light source on or off, the reaction pathway in one pot can be switched between either complete desulfurization (hydrogen chain-end) or simple cleavage (thiol chain-end), respectively. The versatility of this process is exemplified by application to a wide range of polymer backbones under mild, quantitative conditions using commercial reagents.

End group removal and modification of RAFT polymers

This paper describes both well-established routes and recent advances in the end group modification of polymers synthesised by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerisation. The lability of the thiocarbonylthio group, which facilitates the RAFT mechanism, allows for ready postpolymerisation functionalisation of RAFT polymers by a number of techniques. In particular, end...

Comparison of Photocatalytic Activities of Two Different Dyes Using Pt-Modified TiO2 Nanoparticles under Visible Light

The photocatalytic degradation of Acid Red 91 (AR91) and Acid Yellow 23 (AY23) with different molecular structures and different substitute groups using Pt modified TiO2 (PtTiO2 ) nanoparticles was investigated in the presence of visible light irradiation. Pt-TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared with photodiposition method (PD) and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microgr...

Perylene as an Organic Photocatalyst for the Radical Polymerization of Functionalized Vinyl Monomers through Oxidative Quenching with Alkyl Bromides and Visible Light

The generation of carbon-centered radicals from alkyl bromides through an oxidative quenching pathway using perylene as an organic visible-light photocatalyst is described. This methodology is used to initiate the radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate and other functionalized vinyl monomers. The polymers possess bromide chain-end groups that can be used to reinitiate polymerization to p...

Living Additive Manufacturing

Living organisms such as bacteria are able to grow, respond to stimuli, and divide as part of their life cycle. Designing smart three-dimensional (3D) materials that are able to perform such feats, i.e., continue on-demand growth and respond to external stimuli, is always a challenge for polymer and material scientists. At present, Johnson and co-workers have made a significant step forward in ...

Visible light-induced C–H sulfenylation using sulfinic acids†

The visible light and Eosin B-catalyzed direct sulfenylation of sp C–H bonds with sulfinic acids through a photoredox process has been demonstrated at room temperature under transition metal-free conditions for the first time. Diverse heteroaryl sulfides were obtained in moderate to good yields. This is the first example of the sulfenylation of sp C–H bonds using arylsulfinic acids as odorless ...
