Investigations in the field of radiation‐induced solid‐state polymerization

Synthesis of Negative‐Charged Metal‐Containing Cyclomatrix Polyphosphazene Microspheres Based on Polyoxometalates and Application in Charge‐Selective Dye Adsorption

“…It is noted that during the Schiff base reaction, the MnMo 6 cluster remains intact, as indicated by the characteristic broad peak around 62.95 ppm ( Figure 1A inset) in 1 H NMR and the triplet around 940 cm −1 in FT-IR (spectrum b in Figure 1B). [28] Furthermore, the peaks at m/z = 454.68, 802.85, 1847.97 in the negative-mode electrospray ionization mass spectrum (ESI-MS) can be assigned to {MnMo 6 2 } − , which also implied the successful synthesis of the target monomer ( Figure S5 and Table S1, Supporting Information).…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5] Many different metal-containing building blocks and polymer topologies have been reported. [6][7][8] Due to the presence of metal centers in the framework, metallopolymers show applications in different fields, from catalysis, [9] energy storage, [10,11] to biomedicine. [12] The development of novel metal-containing building blocks and new topology of metal-containing polymers are still a research focus in this area.Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a kind of inorganic cluster with nanosize and multiple topologies and compositions.…”

Living ROMP Synthesis and Redox Properties of Diblock Ferrocene/Cobalticenium Copolymers

“…Macromolecules containing metals are attracting a great interest due to their multiple materials properties. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Recent research has focused on block copolymers, [ 14,15 ] and in particular on diblock copolymers containing metal-containing groups such as ferrocenyl (Fc) [16][17][18][19][20][21] or cobalticenium in their side chains. [ 18,[22][23][24][25][26] These…”

“…[ 22 ] Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) [28][29][30][31] has been used for the synthesis of metallocene-containing polymers since the early 1990s, fi rst by Schrock's and Wrighton's groups [ 31 ] and then by others. [16][17][18]28,29 ] Recently, the ROMP synthesis of block copolymers containing either Fc [ 20 ] or cobalticenium [ 22,23 ] in the side chain has been reported using the third-generation Grubbs metathesis catalyst 4 . [ 32 ] This ruthenium ROMP catalyst is very active, because it shows a much faster initiation (by at least three orders of magnitude) than Grubbs' fi rst and second-generation catalysts.…”

New ROMP Synthesis of Ferrocenyl Dendronized Polymers

“…[42] Polyferrocenylsilanes (PFS), developed by Manners' group and prepared by ring-opening polymerization (ROP), [43] are by far the most widely developed and well-studied type of the former category. Metallopolymers of the latter category have been synthesized by various living and controlled polymerization methods including atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), [44,45] reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT), [46,47] and ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). [24,[48][49][50] Fc-containing dendrimers occupy a special place with specific properties such as the near-identity of redox potential of iron sandwich systems located at their tether termini.…”
