Synthesis and Characterization of Optically Active Poly (N-acryloyl-L-alanine) in Ionic Lliquids

摘要

The chiral monomer,N-acryloyl-L alanine, was synthesized by condensation reaction between acryloyl chloride and L-alanine using ethyl acetate and water as two-phase solvents, tetrabutyl ammonium bromide as phase transfer catalyst and ethyl acetate as the extraction solvent.And then, poly (N-acryloyl-L-alanine) was successfully prepared by free radical polymerization of above synthesized monomer using 2,2'-Azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) AIBN as initiator in ionic liquids. Their structures were characterized by ~1HNMR and IR. Optically activities were tested with Rotary Spectrometer. Melting point and glass transition temperature were tested with DSC. The molecular weight of the polymer was characterized with GPC.
