Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
An efficient bimolecular ring-closure method is developed to prepare the well-defined cyclic polynorbornenes by combining the living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) with the self-accelerating double strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (DSPAAC) reaction. In this method, ROMP is used to synthesize the well-defined linear polynorbornenes with both azide terminals by virtue of a N-hydroxysuccinimide-ester-functionalized Grubbs initiator following the modification of polymer end groups. DSPAAC click reaction is then used to ring-close the linear polymer precursors and prepare the corresponding well-defined cyclic polynorbornenes using the sym-dibenzo-1,5-cyclooctadiene-3,7-diyne (DIBOD) as small linkers. The self-accelerating DSPAAC ring-closing reaction facilitates this method to efficiently prepare pure cyclic polynorbornenes in the presence of a molar excess of DIBOD small linkers to the linear polynorbornene precursors. This is the first report to prepare well-defined polynorbornenes with cyclic topology based on the ring-closure strategy for cyclic polymers.
