后过渡金属苊基α-二亚胺镍催化剂的合成及催化降冰片烯聚合

摘要

Twoα-diimine nickel complexes [Ar-N=C (Nap)-C (Nap)=N-Ar]NiBr2 with different alkyl substituents on backbone carbon of acenaphthene [Ar=Ar=2,6-(i-Pr)2-phenyl, Nap=5-R-1,8-naphthdiyl;Cat.1:R=H;Cat.2:R=OCH3] were synthesized successfully. The effects of different conditions (substituents on the temperature changes, the new nickel catalyst and co-catalyst methylaluminoxane (MAO) content ratio, and acenaphthene carbon skeleton) on norbornene polymerization activity were observed. In toluene as a solvent, the reaction time was 1 h, the catalytic system had the highest activity when Al/Ni molar ratio was 1 500. The ethylene polymerization activities with Cat. 1 reached 4.61×104 g/(mol·h) under the condition 60℃ and those with Cat.2 reached 8.11×104 g/(mol·h) under 60℃ with Cat.2. IR and 1H-NMR showed that the norbornene polymerization was addition polymerization catalyzed by these two catalysts and the product catalyzed with Cat.2 showed higher thermal stability.%合成了2种苊基α-二亚胺镍后过渡金属催化剂[ArN=C(Nap)—C(Nap)=NAr]NiBr2(Ar=2,6-(i-Pr)2-phenyl, Nap=5—R—1,8—naphthdiyl;其中,Cat.1:R=H;Cat.2:R=OCH3)].考察了聚合体系在不同温度、铝镍化条件下对降冰片烯聚合反应活性的影响,并对聚合产物的红外光谱、1H-NMR谱图及热稳定性进行分析.结果表明:在以甲苯作溶剂、铝镍摩尔比为1 500、反应时间为1 h的条件下催化剂具有最高的催化活性,未取代的催化剂(Cat. 1)在50℃时催化活性为4.61×104 g/(mol·h),而甲氧基取代的苊基α-二亚胺镍(Cat. 2)在60℃时催化活性达到8.11×104 g/(mol·h);红外谱图及 1H-NMR谱图表明2种催化剂催化降冰片烯聚合均以加成聚合方式进行;Cat.2催化聚合产物具有更高的热稳定性.
