SYNTHESIS OF COPOLYMERS OF β-PINENE BY THE COMBINATION OF LIVING CATIONIC POLYMERIZATION AND ATRP
Graft copolymers of βpinene with methyl methacrylate(MMA)
butyl acrylate (BA) or styrene(St) were synthesized by the combination of living cationic polymerization and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP).β-Pinene polymers with predetermined molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions (MWDs)were prepared by living cationic polymerization with the 1-phenylethyl chloride/TiCl4/Ti(OiPr)4/nBu4NCl initiating system
and the obtained polymers were brominated quantitatively by N—bromosuccinamide in the presence of AIBN
yielding poly(β—pinene)macroinitiators with 50% of bromine contents(Br/β-pinene unit molar ratio=0.5).The macroinitiator
in conjunction with CuBr and 2
2'-bipyridine
was used to initiate ATRP grafting of BA.MMA and St.All of the grafting polymerizations induced linear first-order kinetic plots and gave graft copolymers with controlled molecular weights and MWDs
suggesting that these polymerizations are controllable.The structures of the obtained graft copolymers of β-pinene with(methyl)methacrylate or styrene were confirmed by 1H-NMR spectra.
