Recent advances in ring-opening metathesis polymerization, and application to synthesis of functional materials
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article reviews the development of catalysts for ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), synthesis of polymers bearing amino acids and peptides by ROMP of functionalized norbornenes, formation of aggregates and micelles, and applications of the polymers to medical materials. It also describes the control of monomer unit sequences, that is, living polymerization to synthesize block copolymers, and alternating copolymerization that is achieved on the basis of acid–base interactions.

Synthesis of cyclic olefin polymers with high glass transition temperature and high transparency using tungsten-based catalyst system
Novel cyclic olefin polymers (COPs) derived from bulky cyclic olefins, tricyclodipentadiene (TCPD) and tricyclo[6.4.0.19,12]-tridec-10-ene (TTE), with high glass transition temperature (Tg), excellent thermal stability, and high transparency, have been synthesized by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and subsequent hydrogenation. ROMP of TCPD and TTE was carried out successfully wit...
متن کاملInvestigations into Apopinene as a Biorenewable Monomer for Ring- Opening Metathesis Polymerization
The ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of apopinene is reported. We find that apopinene reacts with Rubased metathesis catalysts to provide an all trans-polymer with a polydispersity index (PDI) as low as 1.6 and molecular weights in the 1100 to 15 600 g·mol−1 range (9−127 monomer units). Because apopinene is readily prepared in one-step from myrtenal or two-steps from α-pinene, both...
متن کاملSynthesis of hybrid block copolymers via integrated ring-opening metathesis polymerization and polymerization of NCA.
Linear hybrid block copolymers with well controlled molecular weights and narrow polydispersities were synthesized via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) followed by ring-opening polymerization of amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides.
متن کاملRecent advances in metathesis-derived polymers containing transition metals in the side chain
This account critically surveys the field of side-chain transition metal-containing polymers as prepared by controlled living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of the respective metal-incorporating monomers. Ferrocene- and other metallocene-modified polymers, macromolecules including metal-carbonyl complexes, polymers tethering early or late transition metal complexes, etc. are here...
متن کاملSupported Catalysts Useful in Ring-Closing Metathesis, Cross Metathesis, and Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization
Ruthenium and molybdenum catalysts are widely used in synthesis of both small molecules and macromolecules. While major developments have led to new increasingly active catalysts that have high functional group compatibility and stereoselectivity, catalyst/product separation, catalyst recycling, and/or catalyst residue/product separation remain an issue in some applications of these catalysts. ...
