Problems solved by technology

Recently, the simultaneous preparation of amphiphilic polymers by using two polymerization forms in one pot has attracted much attention. The amphiphilic block polymer of polypyrrolidone and polycaprolactone was obtained. However, both polymerizations in this method depend on the influence of temperature. Only when the temperature meets the requirements of the two polymerization forms at the same time can the two polymerizations be carried out simultaneously. , and the molecular weight or ratio of the two blocks is heavily dependent on the original feed ratio, and other methods cannot achieve the regulation of the molecular weight of the two blocks (Macromolecules 2013,46,1291-1295); Zhao Junpeng et al. used phosphazene base (t-BuP 1 ) as a catalyst to catalyze the copolymerization of cyclic acid anhydride and ethylene oxide, the copolymerization activity of the two is extremely high, and the alternating polyester is obtained first, and the excess ethylene oxide is further ring-opened and polymerized under the "self-buffering" effect of the catalyst to obtain a hydrophilic Water-based polyether, thus obtaining amphiphilic block polymers, this method corresponds to extremely limited types of monomers, and the types of available amphiphilic polymers are extremely limited (ACS MacroLett.2017,6,1094-1098)

Embodiment 1

[0034] In a nitrogen-filled glove box, a stirrer was placed in the dry polymerization reaction tube in turn, and the chain transfer agent initiator 4-cyano-4-[(dodecylsulfanylthiocarbonyl)thiocarbonyl]valeric acid was added. (TTC-COOH) (80mg, 0.2mmol), (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)diphenylphosphine oxide (TPO) (17.4mg, 0.05mmol), N-isopropylacrylamide ( 1.13g, 10mmol), cyclopentane oxide (0.44mL, 5mmol), phthalic anhydride (recrystallization and then sublimation) (0.74g, 5mmol), THF solution of triethylboron (TEB) (10μL, 0.1 mmol), phosphazene base (t-BuP1) (10 μL, 0.04 mmol), THF (2 ml). After the feeding is completed, shake evenly to completely dissolve the monomer, chain transfer agent, initiator and catalyst. Take it out and put it in a 60°C oil bath to react under magnetic stirring, while using 3mw / cm 2 The intensity was 405nm wavelength blue light irradiation while heating for 24 hours. After the reaction, a small amount of crude product was taken for nuclear magnetic test ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing an amphiphilic block copolymer through cooperation of light-operated free radical polymerization and ring-opening copolymerization, which comprises the following steps: simultaneously adding a Lewis acid-base pair catalytic system consisting of a reversible addition chain transfer reagent containing hydroxyl or carboxyl, a photoinitiator, a hydrophilic vinyl monomer, a Lewis acid-base pair system composed of Lewis acid and Lewis base, an epoxy compound, and a cyclic acid anhydride. The chain transfer reagent is used as a ring-opening polymerization initiator, and a Lewis acid-base pair is used as a catalyst to catalyze ring-opening copolymerization of cyclic anhydride and epoxide, so that the chain transfer agent is attached to the tail end of polyester. Meanwhile, visible light or ultraviolet light is irradiated, the photoinitiator is decomposed to generate free radicals, free radical polymerization of allyl monomers is achieved, and hydrophilic polyolefin chains and polyester chains are subjected to addition through reversible addition of a chain transfer agent, so that the amphiphilic block polymer is formed. The preparation method is simple and easy to operate, the production cost is low, certain biodegradability is achieved, the polymerization process is easy to control, and the product structure can be accurately regulated and controlled.
