Synthesis and optical limiting in copolymers of C_(60) and 1-phenyl-1-butyne

While WC_16-Ph_4Sn is a poor catalyst for the polymerization of l-phenyl-butyne (PB) at room temperature, it effectively polymerizes PB in the presence of C_(60), giving high molecular weight polymers in high yields. The polymer is soluble in THF and chloroform and spectroscopic analysis reveals that Coo has copolymerized with PB. Thus, C_(60) plays dual roles of comonomer and cocatalyst in the acetylene polymerization. The copolymers strongly attenuate 532-nm laser pulses, whose limiting performance is superior to that of parent C_(60)

A novel poly[acrylonitrile-co-(3-ammoniumcarboxylate-butenoic acid-methylester)]copolymer for carbon fiber precursor

A novel bifunctional comonomer 3-ammoniumcarboxylate-butenoic acid-methyl ester （ACBM） was synthesized tor preparing poly[acrylonitrile-co-（3-ammoniumcarboxylate-butenoic acid-methyl ester）] [P（AN-co-ACBM）] copolymer as a carbon fiber precursor. Differential scanning calorimetry results show that the P（AN-co-ACBM） exhibits a significantly improved stabilization performance compared with polyacrylonitrile （PAN）, such as lower cyclization temperature and smaller rate of heat release, which is mainly attributed to the initiation of ACBM through an ionic cyclization mechanism. Simultaneously, the rheological analysis shows that P（AN-co-ACBM） possesses better spinnabilitv than PAN.

A versatile nanobuilding precursor for the effective architecture of well-defined organic/inorganic hybrid via click chemistry

A novel octazido substituted nanobuilding precursor, octakis[dimethy（p-azidomethylene）siloxyl]octasilsesquioxane （ODA）, was prepared by the conventional diazo-transfer reaction of octalds[dimethy（p-chloromethylene）silyl]octasilsesquioxane （ODC） with NAN3, and its structure was characterized by FT-IR, 1H, a3C, 29Si NMR and MALDI-TOF MS, respectively. The structural rearrangement of POSS core in the synthesis strategy of ODA developed in this work was effectively prohibited in comparison with traditionary azidization process. The resultant ODA was not only soluble in common solvents such as CHC13, THF, toluene, DMF and DMSO, but also could effectively serve as a versatile nanobuilding precursor for the architecture of well-defined organic- inorganic hybrids via click chemistry.
