摘要
Ambient temperature atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl acrylate (MA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (Sty) in the presence of polar solvents (dimethyl sulfoxide: DMSO, dimethylformamide: DMF and acetonitrile: MeCN) with a mixed transition metal catalyst system (Fe(0) as initial activator and CuBr2/Me6TREN complex as deactivator) provides a rapid synthesis of polymers with very low polydispersity (PDI) values and predetermined molecular weights. The polymethylacrylate (PMA) prepared using this novel approach contains the Br-terminated chain ends (functionality similar to 100%) and can be successfully used for block copolymer synthesis (as demonstrated on the chain extension experiment performed using the PMA-Br macroinitiator). The key elementary reactions involved in this novel ATRP system and some preliminary mechanistic aspects of the process are also discussed. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
