In the copolymerization of THF and CL catalyzed by lutetium triflates and initiated by propylene oxide, three stages are identified by kinetic study including(1) fast cationic polymerization with slow anionic one,(2) fast anionic polymerization with dormant cationic one, and(3)reactivation of cationic polymerization with coupling of anionic and cationic chain ends. In this work, density functional theory(DFT)calculation is employed to investigate the reaction details of ionic polymerization and dormancy. A “tripedal crow” configuration is proposed to illustrate the unique high-coordinated ligand exchange configuration in anionic polymerization in different stages. The trigger of dormancy is determined as chain structures rather than concentration of triflate anion according to both calculation and experimental results.展开更多

It is found that under experimental conditions α and β chloropropanol in the reaction products were in a molar ratio of about 2∶1. The ratio was almost constant when the molar ratio of c PO ∶c HCl ranged from 1∶0 3 to 1∶1 4, at reaction temperature from 0 to 65 ℃ and reaction time from 1 to 60 min. It is proposed that the addition reaction of HCl should follow an S N2 mechanism, and that which carbon atom would be attacked by nucleophilic agent Cl - is decided by space factor and not by the electron factor.展开更多
