    Notes: Abstract Cancer, including genitourinary malignancy, is a consequence of accumulated genetic aberrations in genes involved in crucial regulatory pathways. The result is a deregulation of cellular behaviour, leading to neoplastic transformation, uncontrolled cell proliferation and acquisition of metastatic ability. The development and perfection of techniques in the field of recombinant DNA technology, gene cloning, (differential) analysis of gene expression, and sequencing of genes and proteins have provided a wealth of information about the genetic aberrations associated with cancer development. This “recombinant DNA and gene cloning” technology and the recently developed DNA chip technology may provide new molecular diagnostic tools. Furthermore, the technology of gene cloning in combination with the progress in in vivo gene delivery techniques offers new treatment modalities, like gene therapy, additional to conventional therapies. This review is intended to provide a general introduction to the fundamentals or strategies of recombinant DNA and gene cloning techniques as a basis for understanding the rapidly expanding range of new diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities. Some illustrative examples are provided, addressing basic and biomedical research and possible clinical applications in genitourinary oncology.

    Notes: -Batzellines A and B (1a, b) and isobatzellines A and B (2a, b) are 1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline-containing marine alkaloids characterized by the presence of a methylthio substituent at C-2 of the tricyclic system. We describe here the total synthesis of these natural compounds following the synthetic strategy that we have used previously for the synthesis of damirones A and B, batzelline C, isobatzelline C, discorhabdin C, and makaluvamines A, B, C, and D. The introduction of the methylthio group by electrophilic substitution of a pyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline, appropriately substituted and in a suitable oxidation state, is the key step in the success of these syntheses.

    Notes: -Copper(I) triflate catalyzes the transformation of α-[(2-alkynyl)oxy]silyl-α-diazoacetates 1a-g into 1,2-bis(2,5-dihydro-1,2-oxasilol-4-yl)ethenes 2 and/or 2H-1,2-oxasilines 3. With rhodium(II) perfluorobutyrate as catalyst, 1a-e furnish only 3 but no 2. Bicyclic 2-methoxyfurans 6 are formed when 1a,c,e (containing terminal alkyne functions) are treated with catalytic amounts of copper(I) chloride. The experimental observations are explained in terms of metal-mediated intramolecular cyclopropenation and subsequent metal-assisted ring-opening of the strained bicyclic cyclopropene leading to vinylcarbene-metal complexes. An unusual autoxidation of 2H-1,2-oxasilines 3a,c,e is also described.

    Notes: The 5-acceptor-substituted 2,3-dibromofurans 1 and 2 underwent a regioselective Pd0-catalyzed coupling reaction at the C-2 carbon atom. With alkynes the corresponding 2-alkynylfurans 4 and 5 were accessible (49-97% yield). Alkyl-, aryl-, and alkenylzinc reagents gave the 2-substituted furans 8 starting from compound 2 (66-84% yield). The 2-allylfurans 8e and 8f were obtained by a regioselective Stille coupling in 79% and 73% yield. The latter reaction was also applied to the parent 2,3-dibromofuran (27) and yielded the substitution product 28 (60% yield). Subsequent Pd0-catalyzed reactions to introduce a methyl group in 3-position by a methyldebromination were successfully conducted for 2-alkynyl-3-bromofurans with MeZnCl and PdCl2(PPh3)2 as the catalyst in THF (reflux) to yield compounds 13-16 and 24 (67-76%) and with SnMe4 and PdCl2[P(o-Tol)3]2 as the catalyst in DMA (90 °C) for the 2-allyl-3-bromofuran 8e to yield 18 (70%). The more facile reaction of the 2-alkynylfurans relative to those of furans bearing an sp3-carbon atom at C-2 appears to be due to steric reasons. Studies on the 2-alkyl-3-bromofuran 20 supported this notion. With the regioselective coupling methodology the terpene rosefuran (22) was prepared in four steps starting from furan 2 (35% yield overall). The F5 furan fatty acid (26) was synthesized from furan 1 in five steps (29% yield overall).

    Notes: (η2-Formaldehyde)zirconocene dimer (8) cleanly adds one or two molar equivalents of the borane HB(C6F5)2 by insertion of the H-[B] unit into the zirconium-carbon bond of the metallaoxirane moieties to form the mono- and bis-insertion products 16 and 17, respectively. These systems contain five-membered heterocyclic rings that are built up by connecting five different elements, namely H, B, C, O, and Zr. The bis(borane) insertion product 17 was characterized by an X-ray crystal structure analysis. (Butadiene)zirconocene reacts with HB(C6F5)2 in a similar way by insertion of the H-[B] unit into the (butadiene)C4-Zr linkage to form the metallacycle 18.

    Notes: The Staudinger-model reaction H3P (1) + HN3 (2) → H3P=NH (5) + N2 (6) has been investigated at the CCSD(T)/6-31G**//MP2(Full)/6-31G* level. Primary products formed in this reaction are the phosphazides H3P=N-N=NH (3) which exist as trans and cis isomers. In contrast to some previous assumptions, cis -3is 8.2 kcal mol-1 more stable than trans -3 but decomposes rather easily into the expected products H3P=NH and N2. This decomposition can be effectively hampered by intramolecular donor-acceptor interactions as shown by calculations on model compounds as well as by experiments. Thus the reaction of a methylene-σ3,λ3-phosphanyl-σ5,λ5-phosphorane with PhN3 led to a new four-membered heterocycle containing a thermally remarkable stable cis-phosphazide moiety.

    Notes: Direct oxidation of PhC(O)NHPPh2, H2NC(S)NHPPh2, (C5H4N)C(S)NHPPh2 with O2, S8, or Se gives [PhC(O)NHP(O)Ph2] (1), [H2NC(S)NHP(S)Ph2] (2), [H2NC(O)NHP-(S)Ph2] (3), [PhC(O)NHP(S)Ph2] (4), [(C5H4N)C(S)NHP(S)Ph2] (5), and [H2NC(S)NHP(Se)Ph2] (6). Deprotonation of 1, 2, 4-6 with potassium tert-butoxide gives K[PhC(O)NP(O)Ph2] (7), K[H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2] (8), K[PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2] (9), K[(C5H4N)C(S)NP(S)Ph2] (10), and K[H2NC(S)NP(Se)Ph2] (11). Reaction of 4with KOBu and [Cu(Ph3P)2][NO3] gives [Cu(Ph3P)(PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2)] (12) which is the first crystallographically characterised example of a non-ionic six-membered “true” heterocycle (i.e. a ring in which every heterocatom is different). 9 and 10 were treated with [PdCl2(COD)] to give [Pd{PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2}2] (13) and [Pd{(C5H4N)C(O)NP(S)Ph2}2] (14), respectively The anion of 8 coordinates to zinc forming [Zn{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}2] (15). Treatment of 2 or 8 with [PtCl2(COD)] gives [Pt{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}{H2NC(S)NHP(S)Ph2}]+Cl- (16) and [Pt{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}2] (17), respectively. The X-ray structures of 12, 15-17are reported.

    Notes: 6,6′-Bis(diethylboryl)-2,2′-bipyridine (1a) was obtained in low yield by in situ deprotonation of 2,2′-bipyridine in the presence of diethyl(methoxy)borane. 6,6′-Dilithio-2,2′-bipyridine reacts with various alkoxyboranes leading to bipyridinediborates 2 in good yields. The derivatives 2b and 2c allow the formation of the free diborylbipyridines 1b and 1c. The coordination properties of the diboryl-bipyridines as tetrafunctional donor-acceptor compounds have been used for the formation of the copper complex 4 and of the adduct 5 which is built from diborylbipyridine and a dihydroxydiboroxan derivative. The composition of the products follows from spectroscopic data and from X-ray structure analyses for 2f, 4, and 5.

    Notes: 1,3-Di-tert-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (4a) and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (4b) were formed by the reaction of the corresponding 2-bromo or 2-iodo derivatives 1a and 2b with LiAlH4. Treatment of 1a with n-butyllithium afforded 2-n-butyl-1,3-di-tert-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5a), whereas 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-cyano-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (3a) was converted into the 2-tert-butyl derivative 6a or the 2-ethynyl-1,3,2-diazaborole 7a by means of tert-butyllithium or by the ethylenediamine adduct of lithium acetylide. Similarly, 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-trimethylstannyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (8a) and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-trimethylstannyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (8b) were accessible from 1a or 2b and trimethylstannyllithium. In the complex 9a the compound 3a serves as an η1 ligand towards the [Cr(CO)5] unit via the cyano group. These novel compounds were characterized by 1H-, 11B-, 13C-, and 119Sn-NMR spectroscopy, as well as by X-ray structure analyses of 4b, 8a, and 9a.

    Notes: The following monocyclic and bicyclic 14-membered diynes were treated with [CpCo(cod)]: 1-oxacyclotetradeca-4,11-diyne (2), 1,8-dioxacyclotetradeca-4,11-diyne (3), cyclotetradeca-4,11-diynone (4), cyclotetradeca-4,11-diyne-1,8-dione (5), 1,1,8,8-tetramethyl-1,8-disilacyclotetradeca-4,11-diyne (6), 1-allyl-1-azacyclotetradeca-4,11diyne (7), 1,8-dipropyl-1,8-diazacyclotetradeca-1,11-diyne (8), 1,8-diallyl-1,8-diazacyclotetradeca-4,11-diyne (9), 1,8-diazabicyclo[6.6.4]octadeca-4,11-diyne (10), 1,8-diazabicyclo[6.6.6]eicosa-4,11-diyne (11), 1,10-diazabicyclo[8.6.6]docosa-13,19-diyne (12) and 1,12-diazabicyclo[10.6.6]tetracosa-15,21-diyne (13). In all cases we obtained an intramolecular cyclobutadiene complex stabilized with a CpCo fragment (15-26). For 3 we could isolate, besides the cyclobutadiene complex 16, the trimerization product 28. In the cases of 15, 16, 18, 20, 23, 25, and 26 the structure of the cylobutadiene complexes could be confirmed by X-ray studies. Common to all structures is a boat-like conformation of the tricyclic unit containing the cyclobutadiene ring. The two cycloheptene units adopt a chair conformation in which the heteroatom is removed from the metal center.

    Notes: The coordination behaviour of 2,6-disilyl-substituted phosphinines towards gold(I) has been examined. The reaction of the bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphinine 1 with [AuCl(SMe2)] gives the corresponding AuCl derivative 2. X-ray crystal structure analysis reveals that the aromaticity of the phosphinine ring is slightly reduced as a result of the poor π-back bonding ability of the AuCl fragment. The same phenomenon is observed in the cationic complex [Au(1)2][GaCl4] (3) which was readily prepared by reaction of two equivalents of 1 with [AuCl(SMe2)] followed by treatment with GaCl3 at low temperature. Reaction of 2,6-bis(phenylethynyldimethylsilyl)phosphinine (4) with the same precursor leads similarly to the complex [AuCl(4)] (5). Interestingly, this complex dimerizes upon crystallization to give the bis(phosphabarrelene) complex 6, also structurally characterized. The formation of 6 results from a [4 + 2] cycloaddition between one alkynyl group of each phosphinine with the other phosphinine subunit. The formation of the cationic complex [Au(4)][GaCl4] (8) occurs under classical conditions but it disproportionates to give the cationic complex [Au(4)2][GaCl4] (9) and colloidal gold deposition. The formation of 9 has been ascertained by treating 8 with one equivalent of ligand 4. Additionally, 9 can also be obtained in a straightforward fashion by treating two equivalents of 4 with [AuCl(SMe2)] followed by treatment with GaCl3 at low temperature. The structure of 9 has been elucidated. Despite a particular arrangement of the alkyne groups which encapsulate the gold coordination sphere, no gold-alkyne interactions are visible.

    Notes: New intramolecularly coordinated organotin compounds containing the monoanionic O,C,O-coordinating ligand {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}- have been synthesized by substitution reactions starting from organotin halides. In view of the enhanced reactivity of the intramolecularly coordinated compounds {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}SnR2R′ (2, R = Ph, R′ = CH2SiMe3; 3, R = R′ = Ph; 6, R = R′ = Cl), cationic tin species are suggested to occur as intermediates in the formation of the heterocyclic compounds [1(Sn),3(P)-Ph2SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2 (8), [1(Sn), 3(P)-Ph(Me3SiCH2)SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2 (15), and {[1(Sn),3(P)-Cl2SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)]C6H2}2 (16). The latter compounds are formed by intramolecular cyclizations of pentacoordinate cationic tin species under elimination of ethyl halide. Furthermore, the synthesis of [1(Sn),3(P)-Ph2SnOP(O)(OH)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OH)2]C6H2 (13) is described. Reaction of 8 with an excess of Me3SiBr leads to the unexpected formation of {2-[P(O)(OEt)(OSiMe3)]-4-tert-Bu-6-[P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2}SnPhBr2 (9) as a result of an O-Sn bond cleavage initiated by Me3SiBr and subsequent reaction of the intermediate with further Me3SiBr under Sn-C bond cleavage. The high donor capacity and the rigidity of the new ligand {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}- are demonstrated by X-ray diffraction analyses of the tetraorganotin compound 2 and the monoorganotin trichloride 6. Furthermore, the molecular structures of the 2,3,1-oxaphosphastannoles 8 and 16 are discussed.

    Notes: The cyclocondensation reaction of benzil-bis(trimethylsilylimin) (3) and Cl2B-NiPr2 via silicon-boron exchangeresults in the solvent-dependent formation of the 1,3,2-diazaborole 1a or the 1,3,6,8,2,7-tetraazadiborecin 2a. Using the more rigid 9,10-bis(trimethylsilylimino)phenanthrene instead of 3 only the five-membered heterocycle 4,5-biphenylene-2-diisopropylamino-1,3,2-diazaborole (1b) is formed. The cyclic ketiminoboranes are characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction data. The 1,3,2-diazaborole ring is almost planar, while the conformation of the 1,3,6,8,2,7-tetraazadiborecin has the shape of a figure-eight loop.

    Notes: The reactions of [N3P3(dobp)2Cl2] and [N3P3(dobp)Cl4] with a mixture of HOC5H4N-4 and K2CO3 in acetone give the cyclotriphosphazenes [N3P3(dobp)2(OC5H4N-4)2] and [N3P3(dobp)(OC5H4N-4)4], respectively. These compounds react with [W(MeOH)(CO)5] in methanol to give mixtures of the polymetallic complexes [N3P3(dobp)2(OC5H4N-4)2{W(CO)5}x] (x = 1, 2) and [N3P3(dobp)(OC5H4N-4)4{W(CO)5}x] (x = 1-4), which are unstable in solution, slowly undergoing loss of the pentacarbonyl moiety. A complete characterization by multinuclear 1H, 15N, 31P, 183W magnetic resonance has revealed that the complexation of the N atom of one 4-oxypyridine ligand by the W(CO)5 fragment has a measurable effect on other parts of the phosphazene molecule very far away from the coordination site. The changes observed in δ183W have been used to identify the components in mixtures of compounds incorporating different numbers of tungsten atoms in the molecule. The characterization of less sensitive nuclei has been accomplished by means of indirect detection methods.

The derivative 3, containing a P=O terminal bond as well as P-S-P bridge, undergoes, in acid conditions, a rearrangement reaction leading to the O,S-symmetrically substituted derivative [K+]2[C10H6PS2(μ-O)PS22-] (4) containing a C3P2O heterocycle. Dipotassium salt 4 was converted into the bis(tetraphenylphosphonium) salt 5 by the treating with PPh4Cl. Hydrolysis of [PyH+][C10H6P(S)(NHMe)(μ-S)PS22-] (15) led to [CH3NH3+][PyH+][C10H6POS(μ-O)POS2-]·1.5 Py (6). New compounds were characterised by 31P{1H}-, 1H- and 13C{1H}-NMR, FT-IR, ES-MS and in the cases 2-6 by X-ray structure determination. The 31P{1H}-NMR spectra of these mixed O,S-derivatives are briefly discussed.

    Notes: 3,4-Dihydro-2,4-diphenyl-2H-1,2,4,3-triazaboroles 3a, 3b, and 4 were synthesized by cyclocondensation of N1,N3-diphenylformamidrazone (1) with dibromophenylborane, dibromomethylborane, and boron trichloride. 3-Chloro-3,4-dihydro-2,4-diphenyl-2H-1,2,4,3-triazaborole (4) was converted into 3,4-dihydro-2,4-diphenyl-2H-1,2,4,3-triazaborole (5) by treatment with LiAlH4. The corresponding 3-cyanato and 3-cyano derivatives 6 and 7 resulted from the reaction of 4 with AgOCN and AgCN, respectively. Compound 7 was transformed into the bis(1,2,4,3-triazaborolyl)oxane 8 by silver oxide. Compounds 1-8 were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic methods (1H, 11B, and 13C NMR; IR; MS). The molecular structure of 8 was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: Several derivatives of homopipecolic acid are prepared by α-amino alkylation of malonic acid with cyclic imines 6 and 7. These are prepared on a large scale and with different substitution patterns. The β-amino acids 8 and 9 were formed in high yield and with remarkable diastereoselectivity if chiral imines are used as starting materials. The diastereoselectivity of the amino alkylation leading to homopipecolic acid analogues is compared to those of thiazolidineacetic acids by epimerisation experiments. A method for resolution of the obtained racemic β-amino acids by diastereomeric salt formation is described. The β-amino acids 9 and 15 were converted into their corresponding carbacepham analogues 14 and isopenam 16. The isopenam endo-16 was selectively epimerised by mild basic treatment of the N/S-acetal to give an exo-configured precursor of isopenicillin G.

    Notes: A convenient synthesis of racemic tetrahydropyridine 1 was developed. Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation of 1 with malonate and dimethylacetoxymalonate as nucleophiles with the phosphanylcarboxylic acid L1 and the dihydrooxazol L2 as ligands, were carried out and gave enantiomeric excesses of up to 98%. Absolute configurations were determined for all compounds described. From the alkylation products (+)- and (-)-2a, and (+)- and (-)-2b a variety of versatile, nonracemic chiral intermediates were prepared.

    Notes: The nucleophilic carbene 3-borane-1,4,5-trimethylimidazol-2-ylidene anion (1-) reacts with the electrophiles CH3I, (CH3)3SiCl, (CH3)3SnCl, and the bromodiazaboroline 7 to form the 2-substituted imidazoles 4, 5, 6, and 8. With triethylborane, the anionic carbene borane adduct 9- is obtained. An unexpected result was achieved when chlorodimethoxyborane and HBCl2 · S(CH3)2 were used as electrophiles. In both cases only the imidazabole 14a could be isolated. Imidazole 5, the imidazole borane adduct 3a and the imidazabole 14a were characterized by X-ray structure analyses.

    Notes: Catalytic hydrogenation of olefins containing functionalized silicon groups affords the saturated products in good yields. Chloro and alkoxy substituents at the silicon atom remain unaffected and, in the case of heterocyclic compounds, the cyclic or bicyclic moieties remain intact. The 2-silanorbornanes 4, 5, and 6 were synthesized from the corresponding 2-silanorbornenes 1, 2, and 3, and organosilanes 13 and 14 possessing the cyclopentyl group, were prepared from the cyclopentenyl-substituted precursors 10 and 12. The 3-vinyl-substituted silacyclobutanes 15, 17, and 18 were also hydrogenated in a simple apparatus with diethyl ether or THF as solvent, and Pd/C as a recoverable catalyst system. A basic organosilicon compound, trichloro(vinyl)silane, is hydrogenated in a nearly quantitative yield to form the saturated trichloro(ethyl)silane; this emphasizes the general applicability of this method.

    Notes: 2-(Dimethylamino)oxazoline-4-carboxylic acids 5 were prepared by condensation of binucleophilic amino acids 4and O-ethyl-N,N-dimethylisourea 3. New heterocyclic N-acetylglucosaminyl amides and chitobiosyl amides 8 were obtained by the coupling of tetraacetylglucosamine 6a or heptaacetylchitobiosylamine 6b with acid chlorides of heterocyclic carboxylic acids 2 or 5a and subsequent deacetylation. Based on their substitution patterns, compounds 8were expected to have inhibitory activity towards chitinases. Enzyme assays showed that glycosyl amides 8 indeed were moderate inhibitors of chitinases, the diacetylchitobiosyl amides 8d-f generally having higher inhibitory activities than the N-acetylglucosaminyl amide derivatives 8a-c. Inhibitory activities depended on the chitinase tested.

    Notes: The readily available 2-substituted 5-acetyl-4-thiazolyl triflates 2are useful building blocks for the preparation of functionalised thiazoles by means of palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions with organometallic reagents and alkoxycarbonylation and deoxygenation reactions. The combination of palladium-catalysed coupling of 2 together with 1-alkynes/6-endo-dig annulation reactions in the presence of ammonia leads to functionalised pyrido[3,4-c]thiazoles in satisfactory yields. The utilisation of uncatalysed displacement reactions of the triflate group represents a very simple method for the synthesis of 4-N-,4-O-, and 4-S-substituted thiazoles.

    Notes: Photolysis of (ethoxy)silyl-, (propyloxy)silyl-, and (isopro-pyloxy)silyl-substituted diazoacetates 1a-c leads to tetrahydro-1,2-oxasiloles 2a-c by intramolecular C-H insertion of a carbene intermediate. Photochemical or catalytic decomposition of (allyloxysilyl)diazoacetates 3a-e results in intramolecular cyclopropanation which provides 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane systems 5a-e. In contrast, the thermal reaction of 3b-d gives rise to 2,5-dihydro-1,2-oxasiloles 4b-d, which are likely to be formed on a pyrazoline rather than a carbene route. For (3-butenyloxysilyl)diazoacetate 3f, all modes of decomposition generate the 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane system 7. Fluoride-induced cleavage of the bicyclic systems 5b-d provides trans-2-hydroxyalkyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylates 9 diastereospecifically.

    Notes: Azaspiropentanecarboxamides 10 and 12 are formed with remarkable ease in two steps in a one-pot operation from methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylideneacetate (4) by addition of a primary amine in tetrahydrofuran and subsequent treatment with sodium hydride/triethylamine in the presence of another equivalent of a primary amine or ammonia. Achievable yields of the amides 10, 12 were moderate to good (27-59%, 12-48%), while the corresponding esters 9 could only be obtained in poor yields (4-14%). The new α-amino acid amides are surprisingly stable, and they can be incorporated into small peptides as demonstrated with the preparation of the glycine 13e and the spirocyclopro-paneoxazoline derivative 14e.

    Notes: The ring forming condensation between some natural α-amino acid phenylhydrazides (1) and aqueous formaldehyde (2) has opened a novel synthetic route to hexahydro-1,2,4-triazin-6-one derivatives (3). Polycyclic systems were obtained from the same reaction carried out with L-aspartic acid 1,4-bis(2-phenylhydrazide) (1d), L-histidine phenylhydrazide (1e) and L-tryptophan phenylhydrazide (1f) which gave perhydro-4,6-dioxo-2,8-diphenyl[1,2,4]triazino[4,5-d][1,2,4]triazepine (5) perhydro-1-oxo-3-phenylimidazo[5,4-d][1,2,4]triazino[4,5-a]pyridine (7) and 1,2,3-H-3-(2-phenylcarbazoyl)-β-carboline (8), respectively. Substrates 1 were conveniently obtained by direct reaction of phenylhydrazine with L-α-amino acid esters retaining the original chirality.

    Notes: Two pairs of novel stereoisomeric, cyclic glycosyl donors exhibit different behaviors in glycosylation processes. In the pair of α-gluco (1) and β-manno (2), the former exhibits reversability with its glycoside product whereas the latter does not. In the α-gluco (3) and β-manno (4) set, the former undergoes glycosyl transfer via an isolable intermediate whereas the latter does not. The differing anomeric effects exerted in the ground states are proposed as the force which explains the differences in behavior.

    Notes: The nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 at the low reactive C-5 position of the uracil ring of C-6 substituted uracil derivatives is reported. The ratio of C-5 versus C-6 nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 dramatically depends on the stereoelectronic properties of the C-6 substituent. In particular, substituents characterized both by sterically bulky and/or electron-withdrawing (EWG) effects appear to direct the nucleophile mainly (methyl, chloromethyl or halogen) or completely (isopropyl) toward the C-5 position. The fine-tuned substituent selectivity found in the nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 to C-6 substituted uracils plays a leading role in the synthesis of new trimethylsilyl-1H-[4,3-d]pyrimidin-5,7-dione derivatives, which can in turn be easily modified through known silicon chemistry.

    Notes: Abstract. The choice of the optimal ultrasonic frequency for vascular studies is determined by the required resolution and penetration. Anatomical real-time two-dimensional imaging and blood flow studies provide complementary information. Intravascular scanning allows high-frequency ultrasound to be used, with correspondingly good spatial resolution. Contrast resolution is degraded by beam side lobes and the limited dynamic range of the ultrasonic pulse. The physics of ultrasonic scattering by blood, pulsed Doppler and duplex scanning and colour flow imaging performances determines the limits of clinical applications. Contrast agents enhance the echogenicity of blood, improving sensitivity and, through second harmonic detection, suppressing solid tissue echoes. Three-dimensional display, with segmentation by the presence of the flow signal, facilitates spatial perception. Clinical applications in vascular pathologies are summarised.

    Notes: Abstract The genes encoding the ApaLI (5′-G^TGCAC-3′), NspI (5′-RCATG^Y-3′), NspHI (5′-RCATG^Y-3′), SacI (5′-GAGCT^C-3′), SapI (5′-GCTCTTCN1^-3′, 5′-^N4GAAGAGC-3′) and ScaI (5′-AGT^ACT-3′) restriction-modification systems have been cloned in E.␣coli. Amino acid sequence comparison of M.ApaLI, M.NspI, M.NspHI, and M.SacI with known methylases indicated that they contain the ten conserved motifs characteristic of C5 cytosine methylases. NspI and NspHI restriction-modification systems are highly homologous in amino acid sequence. The C-termini of the NspI and NlaIII (5′-CATG-3′) restriction endonucleases share significant similarity. 5mC modification of the internal C in a SacI site renders it resistant to SacI digestion. External 5mC modification of a SacI site has no effect on SacI digestion. N4mC modification of the second base in the sequence 5′-GCTCTTC-3′ blocks SapI digestion. N4mC modification of the other cytosines in the SapI site does not affect SapI digestion. N4mC modification of ScaI site blocks ScaI digetion. A DNA invertase homolog was found adjacent to the ApaLI restriction-modification system. A DNA transposase subunit homolog was found upstream of the SapI restriction endonuclease gene.

    Notes: Irradiation of imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (3) - matrix-isolated in argon at 10 K - with a wavelength of 254 nm leads to decarboxylation and the formation of a complex between 2,3-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene and carbon dioxide (1·CO2). Upon irradiation of 2,3-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene (1) with λ = 254, 193, and 185 nm no imidazole can be detected. On the other hand flash vacuum pyrolysis of imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (3) produces imidazole and carbon dioxide. 2,3-Dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene (1) - the possible intermediate - cannot be trapped under these conditions.

    Notes: The kinetics of the [2+ + 4] cycloadditions of 1,3-dithian-2-ylium ions (1) with 1,3-dienes was investigated photometrically in dichloromethane. The second-order rate constants determined for the reactions of 1 with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene (2a) and isoprene (2b) were identical to those calculated for the first step of a stepwise cycloaddition pathway by the correlation lg k = s (E + N). Though a concerted cycloaddition pathway is not excluded by this finding, it is obvious that the transition states of these reactions are not noticeably stabilized by the simultaneous formation of two new σ bonds.

    Notes: A series of differently substituted 2-chloro-, 2-fluoro- and 2-iodo-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaboroles have been prepared by various methods. 1,3-Di-tert-butyl-2-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (3a), 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5a), 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethyl-phenyl)-2-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5b), 2-chloro-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dineopentyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5c), and 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-iodo-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (6a) were formed from the corresponding lithiated Z-1,2-diaminoethenes, by treatment with BF3·OEt2, BCl3, or BI3 in n-hexane. Compounds 3a, 5a, and 5b are also available by sodium amalgam reduction of the adduct (tBu)(BF3)N=CH-CH=N(BF3)(tBu) (2a), and the borolium salts [RNa=CH-CH=Nb(R)BCl2]X (Na-B) (4a: R = tBu, X = BCl4 and 4b: R = 2,6-Me2C6H2, X = Cl) respectively. The iodo derivative (2,6-Me2C6H2)-Na-CH=CH-Nb(2,6-Me2C6H2)BI (Na-B) (6b) was synthesized in a redox reaction between the 1,4-diazabutadiene 1b and BI3. The novel compounds were characterized by 1H-, 11B- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, as well as by an X-ray structure analysis of 6b.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2005/1998/98047_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: The new pyridyl-substituted phosphaferrocene ligands 3 and 6 are prepared by addition of lithiated pyridine or α-picoline to 2-formyl-3,4-dimethylphosphaferrocene (1). The ligands 3 and 6 react with [Cp*RuCl]4 in THF to give the P,N-chelate complexes [Cp*RuCl·3] (9) and [Cp*RuCl·6] (10) with high diastereoselectivity. Addition of monodentate ligands like CO or PPh3 to the complexes leads by displacement of the Ru-bound pyridyl group to the respective carbonyl or phosphane complexes with monodentate P-coordinated phospha-ferrocene ligands. Reaction of the ligand 6 with [(C3H5)PdCl]2 and NH4PF6 gives the seven-membered chelate complex [(C3H5)Pd·6]PF6 (13) which was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The ligands 3 and 6 were tested in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of 1,3-diphenylallyl acetate.

    Notes: While Arduengo-type carbenes are now well established for the Group IVa elements carbon, silicon and germanium, they are experimentally unknown for the isoelectronic anions with the Group IIIa elements boron, aluminum, gallium, and indium. In the present quantum chemical investigations, the bonding features of this class of compounds are explored. As a result, they are predicted to be stable species with sizeable singlet-triplet energy separations and electron affinities. Hence, they may be considered as valid targets for experimental investigations. An analysis of the electron density distribution in the case of boron and aluminum reveals a strongly polar B-N bond for the former, and a half Al-N bond with positive charge at the aluminum, emphasizing the donor-acceptor formulation for the latter.

    Notes: Cyclovoltammetric investigations have been carried out on 3,3,6,6-tetramethylcyclohexane-1,2,4,5-tetrone (4), bicyclo-[3.2.2]nonane-6,7,8,9-tetrone (5), and several of their congeners, such as 6,13-dihydro-6,6,13,13-tetramethylquin-oxalino[2.3-b]phenazine (13), 5,10-dihydro-5,5,10,10-tetra-methylpyrazino[2,3-g]quinoxaline (17), and 6,13-dihydro-6,13-propanoquinoxalino[2,3-b]phenazine (20). For 5 and 20 a large difference (ΔE° ≥400 mV) between the first and second reduction potentials was found. The ESR results of the radical anion 20•- are in support of a strong homoconjugation. ESR studies of 4•-, 13•-, and 17•- also reveal a symmetrical displacement of the unpaired electron over both acceptor groups on the ESR time scale which, however, based on the small potential difference ΔE° ≤ 200 mV can be most likely described to a fast electron exchange.

    Notes: Epibatidine (1) is a recently discovered trace alkaloid found in the skin of a Latin-American poisonous frog. Its remarkably high analgetic activity is accompanied by high toxicity. Therefore, in order to tune its biological activity, a convergent and efficient synthetic pathway was sought to synthesize epibatidine derivatives with different (het)aryl substituents. The hydro(het)arylation of the key intermediate 7-azabicycloheptene (10) represents such an approach. The synthesis of 10 by a Diels-Alder reaction of an N-activated pyrrole (7) with ethynyl p-tolyl sulfone (6) and subsequent steps has been optimized. The crucial last step, the reductive cleavage of the vinyl sulfone 9, has been replaced by a high-yield fluoride-induced degradation of the β-silylated sulfone 12 to give 10. A number of structurally different racemic epibatidine analogs (16b-e) can be prepared by palladium-catalyzed hydro(het)arylation of 10 with iodo(het)arenes 15b-e in good yields.

    Notes: Reactions of the Lewis acids BH3 and BEt3 with trimethylimidazole (1) lead to the borane adducts 2a and 2b. Deprotonation of 2a with n-butyllithium results in the formation of the novel N-borane-substituted imidazol-2-ylidene anion 3a- whereas deprotonated 2b rearranges unexpectedly to the anionic compound 3b-. This can be transformed into the carbene-borane adduct 4 by methylation. The reaction of 3a- with [Mn(CO)5Br] yields the carbene complex 5. Surprisingly, 3a- attacks Fe(CO)5 at a carbon atom which leads to the iron acyl complex anion 6-. The compositions of the products follow from spectroscopic and analytical data and from X-ray structure analyses for Li(thp)+3a-, Li(thf)2+3b- and Li(thp)3+6-.

    Notes: In polymers for microelectronics applications, moisture is known to have a deleterious effect upon device reliability. In this paper, the moisture transport behaviors of a newly developed family of all-aromatic and aromatic/aliphatic copolyester thermosetting films were described. The moisture uptake as a function of temperature, relative humidity, sample thickness, and processing conditions were presented via conjugate moisture sorption tests.1 It was found that the post curing near but below Tg resulted in an increase in both total moisture uptake and diffusion coefficient due to the effect of physical aging and the generation of sample defect volume. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Melt-miscible polymer blends of poly(ethylene oxide)/atactic poly(methyl methacrylate (PEO/a-PMMA)) were prepared by melt-mixing and characterized by pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) dilatometry in the pressure and temperature range of 0 to 200 MPa and 20 to 200°C, respectively. The PVT data were analyzed in terms of two equations of state (EOS). The empirical Tait EOS was applied in the glassy, semicrystalline, and equilibrium melt state, and the Simha-Somcynsky EOS theory was applied in the equilibrium melt and glassy state. The Simha-Somcynsky EOS theory contains a free volume function. The temperature, pressure, and composition dependence of the free volume fraction h calculated from the Simha-Somcynsky EOS theory was studied. As a function of blend composition we observe that the free volume fraction, thermal expansivity, and compressibility all deviate mainly positively from linearity while the specific volume deviates mainly negatively from linearity. These findings are reconciled with composition-dependent free volume parameters, the free volume and cell volume as well as with self- and cross-interaction parameters derived from the Simha-Somcynsky EOS theory as applied to polymer mixtures. Moreover, the pressure dependence of glass and melting transitions as well as crystallization kinetics have been investigated. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We have studied the temperature variation of conductivity and 1H NMR linewidth of (PEG)xNH4ClO4 (x = 20, 30, 46, 100, 200, & 1000) polymer electrolyte systems. The temperature dependence of the conductivity shows two distinct behaviors, the low temperature VTF dependence crossing over to Arrhenius dependence at higher temperatures. The departure from the VTF behavior is found to be composition dependent. NMR spectra indicate the presence of large fractions of crystalline regions that start to melt around the crossover temperature. We understand the deviation from the VTF behavior as a consequence of this crystalline to elastomer transition. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 1201-1209, 1998

    Notes: The melt crystallization process of isotactic polystyrene (i-PS) was studied by means of in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, with a focus on the conformational changes during the induction period. The spectra obtained during the induction period suggested the occurrence of some ordered structure that is characterized by higher regularity and packing of the helical moieties than observed in the melt. This ordered structure was clearly different from the amorphous structure, and close to the crystal structure. The Avrami analysis indicated that the formation process of the ordered structure at the late stage of the induction period is similar to the growth process of the crystallites after the induction period. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Mechanical and dielectric properties of two series of segmented polyurethanes having soft segment concentration of 50 and 70% and a varying degree of crosslinking through the hard segment were studied. The degree of crosslinking in each series was varied by varying the butane diol/trimethylol propane ratio in the chain extender mixture. Tensile strength, elongation at break decrease, but elastic recovery increases monotonically with increasing crosslinking. The plateau modulus in the dynamic mechanical test decreases and then increases with increasing TMP content. Crosslinking causes broadening of the soft segment glass transition as seen by permittivity and loss factor measurements. It also affects high temperature behavior (above the glass transition of the hard segment); it lowers permittivity, loss factor, and ionic conductivity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Thermoplastic elastomer gels (TPEGs) composed of a poly[styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene] triblock copolymer and a low-volatility, midblock-compatible mineral oil have been investigated at different oil concentrations to ascertain the effect of composition on TPEG morphology and mechanical properties. The impact of thermal processing is also examined by comparing gels thermally quenched to 0°C or slowly cooled to ambient temperature. Transmission electron micrographs reveal that gels with 70 to 90 wt % oil exhibit styrenic micelles measuring ca. 24 nm in diameter. Variation in composition or cooling rate does not have any perceivable effect on micelle size or shape, whereas the rate at which the gels are cooled influences the extent of microstructural order and the time to rupture (tR) at constant strain. Dynamic rheological testing confirms the presence of a physically crosslinked network at TPEG compositions ranging from 70 to 90 wt % oil, independent of cooling rate. Results presented here suggest that the dynamic elastic shear modulus (G′) scales as tαR where α varies from 0.41 to 0.59, depending on cooling rate. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci.

    Notes: On the basis of the first-order Markovian statistics, we propose a general matrix formula for the weight-average molecular weight of crosslinked polymer systems, explicitly given by M̄w = M̄w,0 + WX0 (I - X)-1 Sf. This equation is valid for both step and chain-growth polymerizations, including those in a nonequilibrium state irrespective of the reactor types used. In the context of the present theory, the onset of gelation is simply stated as a point at which the largest eigenvalue of the matrix X reaches unity (i.e., det(I - X) = 0). The present theory provides a unified point of view for various types of gelling systems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym. Phys. 36: 2423-2433, 1998

    Notes: Polyester (Egyptian) fibers were annealed at constant temperature (190°C) with different annealing times. Density, crystallinity, mean square density fluctuation, mechanical loss factor, and molecular orientation were calculated. Densities and mechanical loss factor were determined using an acoustic method. Changes in the molecular orientation were evaluated from the resulting optical data using the polarizing Pluta interference microscope. Correlation of data obtained by one method with another leads to relational changes in optothermal properties and in the molecular orientation. Changes of refractive index profiles of annealed PET fibers are provided. Illustrations using graphs and microinterferograms are shown. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: [Perfluoro-organic]/[silicon oxide] hybrids were formed by conducting sol-gel reactions of tetraethylorthosilicate within a perfluoro(carboxylate/sulfonate) bilayer membrane in the Co+2 form. FTIR and 29Si solid-state NMR spectroscopies were used to probe general aspects of molecular structure within the silicon oxide phase as a function of its relative content. The internal gel structure is considerably unconnected in terms of the population of Si—O—Si groups in cyclic vs. linear substructures and degree of Si atom coordination about bonded SiO4 units. In situ (HO)xSiO2[1-1/4x] intrastructure become increasingly less connected and more strained with regard to bonding geometry with increasing percent silicon oxide. Structural differences are seen between the silicon oxide component incorporated in carboxylate and sulfonate layers. These inorganically modified perfluorinated ionomers have potential as fast-proton conducting membranes for fuel cells and as permselective membranes in liquid pervaporation cells. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In this work, the ternary phase diagrams in three nonsolvent/solvent/PMMA systems (n-hexane/n-butyl acetate/PMMA, water/acetone/PMMA, and n-hexane/acetone/PMMA) were constructed by theoretical calculation and experimental measurement. Binodal curves were calculated by using the Flory-Huggins theory for three-component systems and measured by titrating the PMMA solution with nonsolvent until the onset of turbidity. By using concentration-dependent nonsolvent/solvent and solvent/PMMA interaction parameters and constant nonsolvent/PMMA interaction parameters, good agreement has been obtained between the calculation and the measurement. The values of nonsolvent/solvent interaction parameters were taken from the literature sources, and the values of solvent/PMMA and nonsolvent/PMMA interaction parameters were measured by vapor sorption and swelling equilibrium, respectively. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We have been developing a physical picture on the atomic level of stress relaxation in polymer melts by means of computer simulation of the process in model systems. In this article we treat a melt of freely jointed chains, each with N = 200 bonds and with excluded-volume interactions between all nonbonded atoms, that has been subjected to an initial constant-volume uniaxial extension. We consider both the stress relaxation history σ(t) based on atomic interactions, and the stress history σe(t; NR) based on subdividing the chain into segments with NR bonds each, with each segment regarded as an entropic spring. It is found that at early times σ(t) 〉 σe(t; NR) for all NR, and that, for the remainder of the simulation, there is no value of NR for which σ(t) = σe(t; NR) for an extended period; by the end of the simulation σ(t) has fallen just below the value σe(t; 50). The decay of segment orientation, 〈P2(t; NR)〉, and of bond orientation 〈P2(t; 1)〉, is computed during the simulation. It is found that the decay of the atom-based stress σ(t) is closely related to that of 〈P2(t; 1)〉. This result may be understood through the concept of steric shielding. The change in local structure of the polymer melt during relaxation is also studied. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 143-154, 1998

    Notes: The dynamics of rigid-rod-like molecules are studied using rheo-optical techniques. Measurements of flow birefringence as a function of shear rate are utilized to understand the scaling behavior of rotational diffusivity with respect to concentration and temperature. The concentration scaling exponent increases with increasing concentration and the scaling laws are valid in narrow concentration windows. The Doi-Edwards (DE) scaling law Dr ∼ c-2, holds at very high concentrations (cL3 〉 150). The concentration scaling exponent decreases dramatically with increasing temperature at concentrations, cL2d 〉 1. Scaling of rotational diffusivity, with respect to temperature and solvent viscosity in the semidilute regime, does not follow the predictions of DE theory (and related caging ideas).

    Notes: Two series of segmented polyurethanes, one containing 50% soft segments and the other with 70% soft segments were synthesized. Chemical crosslinks were introduced through the hard segment in a controlled way. Chemical polyurethane networks were characterized by swelling. The effect of the degree of crosslinking on properties was examined. It was found that chemical crosslinks in the hard segment reduce the mobility of the soft phase and destroy the crystallinity of the hard phase, but they improve heat stability of the hard domains. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: When a benzene/cyclohexane mixture of 10 wt % benzene was permeated through side-chain liquid-crystalline polymer (LCP) membranes by pervaporation at various temperatures, the permeation rate increased with increasing permeation temperature. The LCP membranes also exhibited a benzene permselectivity. The permselectivity for the benzene/cyclohexane mixture through the LCP membrane was different in the glassy, liquid-crystalline, and isotropic states. The LCP membrane had different apparent activation energies for permeation at each state. LCP membrane in the liquid-crystalline state had the highest apparent activation energy of the three states. Results suggest that the benzene permselectivity was influenced by changes in the LCP membrane structure, i.e., a state-transformation. It was found that a balance of the orientation of mesogenic groups and the flexibility of the siloxane chains was very important for benzene permselectivity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A simulation model has been developed to predict the partitioning behavior of styrene in dispersion polymerization in ethanol-water mixtures. The composition of both the continuous phase and the dispersed phase are quantitatively estimated throughout the polymerization process. The presence of water in the system causes a considerable increase of the styrene partitioning in favor of the particles. Thus, at 70°C and for an initial composition of ethanol/water/styrene = 63.3/26.9/9.8, the concentration of styrene in the particles is about 4.8 times higher than that in the serum instead of about one in pure ethanol. The higher the polymerization temperature, the lower the styrene concentration in the particles; the higher the initial styrene concentration, the higher the styrene concentration in the particles, whereas the partition coefficient is not largely effected. In contrast, neither the interfacial tension nor the final particle size do significantly alter the simulation results. The predicted data from this model have been successfully applied to clarify the mechanisms involved in dispersion polymerization, in terms of stabilization and of kinetic events. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A Markovian model is proposed for nonrandom branching reactions, by using free-radical polymerization that involves chain transfer to polymer as an example. Free-radical polymerizations are kinetically controlled; therefore, each primary polymer molecule experiences different history of branched structure formation. By assuming that the primary chains with the identical birth time conform to the same chain connection probabilities, the nonlinear structural development can be viewed as a system in which the primary chains formed at different birth times are combined into nonlinear polymers in accordance with the first-order Markov chain statistics. An explicit formula for the weight-average chain length is derived in a matrix form. The onset of gelation is simply stated as a point at which the largest eigenvalue of the transition matrix X reaches unity, i.e., det(X - I) = 0. This criterion for the onset of gelation can be considered as an extension of the Flory/Stockmayer theory to a nonequilibrium reaction system. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of new copolymers of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP) containing up to 50 mol % of the hexafluoropropylene comonomer have been investigated with respect to chain conformation and crystal structure using wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD). Increasing HFP content leads to significant departures from the highly ordered crystalline structure of the homopolymer PTFE; the helical conformation of the chain relaxes and untwists to accommodate the larger —CF3 pendant group in the HFP unit. Simultaneously the lateral hexagonal packing of the helices becomes less ordered and the a-dimension of the hexagonal cell increases. The above effects are progressive with increasing HFP content. At 50 mol % HFP incorporation the structure is a disordered crystalline phase. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 2811-2819, 1998

    Notes: Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics techniques were utilized to study the composition and properties of styrene-sodium methacrylate ionomers. Predictive models were obtained for mol % ionic content, as well as for the ionic cluster glass transition temperature, storage modulus, and tan δ peak parameters. The results illustrate the feasibility of using NIR and chemometrics algorithms as a property predictive tool, as well as the potential for the development of full calibration models. The chemometric parameters are discussed based on correlations with ionomer NIR spectral features and the role water molecules play as a probe for the associated structure of the ionomer. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

It was observed that sequential-different oxidation potential among layers of polythiophenes is a prerequisite for the heterojunction to show rectification effect. The carrier-flow of the three semiconductors for PBrT/PT/PMT heterojunction was discussed in detail.

    Notes: The self-diffusion of four styrene-methylmethacrylate random copolymers dissolved in acetone, a thermodynamically bad solvent for the styrene sequences in the copolymer, were investigated by pulsed-field gradient NMR. The echo attenuations Sinc(q,t) are dominated by diffusion of clusters. At higher concentrations, physical gelation sets in (formation of a transient network), which is manifested in an anomalous, restricted diffusion at short observation times. The measured fluctuations of the positions of the chain segments in the transient network have an amplitude of about 100 nm. The free long-range diffusion attained at long observation times shows a much stronger concentration dependence than in the nonassociating solvent benzene. The results are in accord with light-scattering investigations. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 2931-2939, 1998

    Notes: The miscibility of poly(4-hydroxystyrene-co-methoxystyrene) (HSMS) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). HSMS/PCL blends were found to be miscible in the whole composition range by detecting only a glass transition temperature (Tg), for each composition, which could be closely described by the Fox rule. The crystallinity of PCL in the blends was dependent on the Tg of the amorphous phase. The greater the HSMS content in the blends, the lower the crystallinity. The polymer-polymer interaction parameter, χ32, was calculated from melting point depression of PCL using the Nishi-Wang equation. The negative value of χ32 obtained for HSMS/PCL blends has been compared with the value of χ32 for poly(4-hydroxystyrene) (P4HS)/PCL blends. The specific nature, quantitative analysis, and average strength of the intermolecular interactions in HSMS/PCL and P4HS/PCL blends have been determined at room temperature and in the molten state by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements. The FTIR results have been in good correlation with the thermal behavior of the blends. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 95-104, 1998

The method uses a specific sequence of temperatures with a differential scanning calorimeter, and the melting and recrystallization processes were confirmed by optical observations. The method was applied to poly(butylene terephthalate). The rate of recrystallization was found to be roughly two orders of magnitude faster than isothermal crystallization from the melt. The melting temperatures obtained from recrystallization were used in the Hoffman-Weeks equation to deduce 236°C as the equilibrium melting temperature for poly(butylene terephthalate). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Good agreement is found between the NR measurements and theoretical predictions that make use of a mean field binary interaction model and previously reported binary interaction energies.

    Notes: To evaluate the compatibilizing effects of isocyanate (NCO) functional group on the polyethylene terephthalate/low density polyethylene (PET/LDPE) blends, LDPE grafted with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-isophorone diisocyanate (LDPE-g-HI) was prepared and blended with PET. The chemical reaction occurred during the melt blending in the PET/LDPE-g-HI blends was confirmed by the result of IR spectra. In the light of the blend morphology, the dispersions of the PET/LDPE-g-HI blends were very fine over the PET/LDPE blends. DSC thermograms indicated that PET microdispersions produced by the slow cooling of the PET/LDPE-g-HI blends were largely amorphous, with low crystallinity, due to the chemical bonding. The tensile strengths of the PET/LDPE-g-HI blends were higher than those of the PET/LDPE blends having a poor adhesion. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 447-453, 1998

    Notes: The conformational and rheological dynamics of dilute solutions of polyelectrolyte macromolecules undergoing shear and extensional flow are modeled using Nonequilibrium Brownian Dynamics (NEBD) and Configuration-Biased Monte Carlo (CBMC) simulations. The mathematical model utilizes a bead-spring chain with charged beads that interact through a screened Debye-Hückel potential, and that also interact through stretching and bending forces. The diffusion (or Fokker-Planck) equation for the probability density of the positions of the beads of the chain is converted to a Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE), from which the simulation algorithm for the NEBD is obtained. The CBMC is used in the initial chain generation and in determining steady-state properties in elongational flows. Various conformational and rheological quantities, such as the stress and birefringence, are monitored, under both steady-state and transient conditions, with the primary independent variable being the salt concentration (parametrized through the Debye length) and the strength of interaction q, related to the degree of ionization of the chain. It is found that this model is able to describe qualitatively many of the experimentally observed features in such systems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) films have been “grafted” onto copper electrodes by cathodic polarization and analyzed by infrared spectroscopy and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The dynamic mechanical response shows two or three transitions depending on the film thickness and the potential deposition. The viscoelastic properties of “ungrafted” PAN films, e.g., solvent cast films of commercially available PAN, are deeply different from those of “electrografted” films. The experimental data support that “ungrafted” chains are paracrystalline in contrast to the “grafted” ones which are essentially amorphous. Moreover, the irreversible transformation of the “grafted” PAN chains observed beyond 225°C is confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and ascribed to an intramolecular cyclization of PAN into polyimine. This reaction occurs rapidly and at a comparatively low temperature with respect to “ungrafted” PAN, which suggests that the “grafted” chain configuration might be predominantly isotactic. The isotacticity and the amorphous structure appear to decrease as the thickness of the PAN film is increased. Literature data and the herein reported observations would suggest a dependence of the amorphous structure of PAN on the chain isotacticity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In this work, we have investigated by DSC the structural relaxation of amorphous polymethyl(α-n-alkyl)acrylates in which it is possible to change the length of the alkyl chain. We have evaluated the Narayanaswamy parameter, x, which controls the relative contribution of temperature and of structure to the relaxation time, the apparent activation energy, Δh*, and the nonexponentiality parameter, β, of the stretched exponential response function. The results suggest that x increases while Δh* decreases and β remains constant as the length of the side chain increases. This allows us to comment on the effect of chemical modification on the relaxation kinetics. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 583-593, 1998

    Notes: A study was conducted aimed at establishing the nature of chemical and physical phenomena in polymeric and nonpolymeric glass formers that can be observed by impedance measurements. Various systems were investigated that undergo a temporal evolution of structure as a result of chemical reactions and physical processes such as crystallization, vitrification, or phase separation. Distinct and systematic changes in impedance during crystallization and vitrification confirmed that these events could be monitored by impedance spectroscopy. Of particular interest was the potential use of impedance measurements in detecting gelation in crosslinking polymers. It was shown that the experimentally observed “knee” in imaginary impedance during reaction shifts with frequency and, hence, cannot be used to measure gelation. But a new insight at the molecular level was obtained by employing a novel experimental approach based on simultaneous dielectric-infrared measurements. Evidence was generated to support the formation of a hydrogen-bonded complex in the vicinity of gel point in polymer networks, which affords a vehicle for the migration of intrinsic charges and provides a contribution to the overall conductivity. This finding should be explored further because it suggests the possibility of correlating dielectric response with gelation. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Clustering behavior of water molecules during adsorption of water in wood was studied using the Zimm-Lundberg theory. The average cluster size of water molecules was determined with the help of wood adsorption isotherms at five temperatures. The effects of both relative humidity and temperature on average cluster size were studied. Average cluster size progressively increased with an increase in humidity. At humidities corresponding to fiber saturation, larger clusters were formed. Cluster size increased sharply with an increase in temperature at humidities close to saturation. Formation of large clusters at high temperature and humidities close to saturation is attributed to increased fraction of weakly bonded water and capillary condensation in such conditions. A description of adsorption of water in wood was provided in terms of average cluster size. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 665-671, 1998

    Notes: Grafting one type polymer onto a different polymer type may yield a comb-branched copolymer. The branching density has a significant effect on its overall molecular weight distribution. A general model is derived to describe the bivariate distribution of molecular weight and branching density for such comb copolymers. The model is applicable for various grafting mechanisms provided the side chains are randomly grafted onto the backbone. The determining parameters are the molecular weight distributions of backbone and side chains, and the branching density. Analytical expressions are obtained for the cases of the side chains having uniform and Schulz-Zimm distributions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 705-714, 1998

    Notes: Polyethylene (PE) film was implanted with 1000-keV Ar+ ions to a fluence of 5 × 1014 ions/cm2 under high vacuum conditions (2.5 × 10-6 torr) and the film surface was investigated by means of microhardness and microwear measurements, and FTIR/ATR, Raman, and XPS techniques. Ion implantation significantly increased the subsurface hardness and also significantly improved the microwear resistance of the polymer. The implanted surface region of the film was found to consist of two distinct layers. One was the outermost carbon layer with a thickness of the order of 10 nm. In this layer, ca. 75% of carbon atoms were combined by graphitic sp2 and diamond-like sp3 bonds, and the remaining 25% had chemical links with oxygen atoms. Spectroscopic data suggested that the sp2-bonded carbons segregated in graphite-like clusters containing imbedded oxygen atoms, interconnected by the sp3-bonded carbons. The other was the subsurface layer resulting from PE oxidation after ion-beam treatment. This layer was characterized by high contents of O—H and C=O groups as well as ester and double bonds. The chemical composition of the layer was uniform and did not vary over the layer thickness of about 1.4 μm. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 715-725, 1998

    Notes: Using FTIR spectroscopy we have examined conformational changes in the quenched and slowly cooled amorphous PET films during physical aging process. It was observed that the amount of trans conformers for quenched sample decreased upon sub-Tg annealing. For the slowly cooled sample that corresponds to a state closer to equilibrium, the amount of trans conformers hardly decreased, but increased gradually during sub-Tg annealing process. The conformational populations of these two samples tend to be identical with annealing time. These results demonstrate that sub-Tg annealing will lead to closer interchain packing and result in the formation of new cohesional entanglements along the chains. In situ FTIR studies on the conformational changes of these samples were also carried out during heating up of the sample through the glass transition region. The results showed that incremental changes of the amount of trans conformers in Samples Q and SC were gradual, while an abrupt change of trans conformers occurred in the sub-Tg annealed samples. These results were in agreement with the formation of the interchain cohesional entanglement due to sub-Tg annealing. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 783-788, 1998

    Notes: The pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) properties of three commercial samples of poly(dimethylsiloxane) are studied experimentally and theoretically in the temperature range 25-150°C and for pressure to ∼ 3 kbar. The Tait equation is employed to represent the data at elevated pressure. Isothermal compressibilities are computed for the three samples. The melt data are analyzed in terms of the Simha-Somcynsky hole theory, and scaling parameters of pressure, volume, and temperature are obtained. Satisfactory agreement between theory and experiment is found over the entire range of experimental pressures. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 841-850, 1998

    Notes: The relaxation behavior of four amorphous poly(aryl ether ketone)s was investigated using dielectric relaxation spectroscopy and dynamic mechanical analysis. The temperature dependence of the relaxation times of the glass transition process and the cooperative nature of this process were unaffected by changes in polymer structure. The temperature location of the loss peaks for all polymers progressed smoothly between the low frequency of the mechanical measurements and the higher frequencies of the dielectric probe. Differences were observed in mechanical activation energy and dielectric relaxation strength for one polymer which contained a significant concentration of meta linkages, compared with the para-linked polymers, while relaxation broadness was generally greater in the dynamic mechanical mode. Changes in chemical structure had little effect on the shape, intensity, and location of the β-relaxation peak, the main observation being that the Arrhenius activation energy measured by dynamic mechanical analysis was significantly higher than that calculated from the dielectric data. The dielectric β-relaxation was sensitive to absorbed moisture. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 851-859, 1998

    Notes: A zone-drawing and zone-annealing treatment was applied to poly(p-phenylene sulfide) fibers in order to improve their mechanical properties. The zone-drawing (ZD) was carried out at a drawing temperature of 90°C under an applied tension of 5.5 MPa, and the zone-annealing (ZA) was carried out at an annealing temperature of 220°C under 138.0 MPa. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermogram of the ZD fiber had a broad exothermic transition (Tc = 110°C) attributed to cold-crystallization and a melting endotherm peaking at 286°C. The Tc of the ZD fiber was lower than that (Tc = 128°C) of the undrawn fiber. In the temperature dependence of storage modulus (E′) for the ZD fiber, the E′ values decreased with increasing temperature, but increased slightly in the temperature range of 90-100°C, and decreased again. The slight increase in E′ was attributable to the additional increase in the crosslink density of the network, which was caused by strain-induced crystallization during measurement. The resulting ZA fiber had a draw ratio of 6.0, a degree of crystallinity of 38%, a tensile modulus of 8 GPa, and a tensile strength of 0.7 GPa. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: On the basis of a variational principle a quantitative theory is developed enabling a thermodynamic description in terms of mean field approximation of heteropolymer mixtures of macromolecules with an arbitrary distribution for both degree of polymerization and composition. Rather simple general equations are derived to calculate compositions and volume fractions of spatially homogeneous macroscopic phases as well as to find the cloud-point curve, spinodal, and critical points. Potentialities of general theory are illustrated for copolymers synthesized by traditional methods. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 937-958, 1998

    Notes: We report a new result of free-volume hole size distribution in water and ethanol-swollen Nafion-117 polymer. With the increase in water content, free-volume hole size decreases, but overall the volume fraction increases. The hole size distribution in dry polymer is seen to be distinctly different from hydrated membranes. The narrow and symmetric distribution in hydrated membrane as compared to dry membrane is believed to be a consequence of crosslinking due to cluster formation. In alcohol-swollen membranes, on the other hand, not only are the free-volume size and fraction seen to be higher, the hole size distribution is seen to be broader compared to dry or hydrated membranes, indicating the effect of penetration of alcohol into the hydrophobic backbone region. We have also examined our results vis-a-vis reported gas diffusion studies in Nafion in the framework of existing free-volume model. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Activation volumes for chromophore reorientation were measured for a series of guest-host polymeric materials, indicating a significant coupling between chromophore motion and the glassy α and β relaxation dynamics of the polymer host. The specific systems studied were formed by individually dissolving N,N-dimethyl-p-nitroaniline (DpNA), 4-(dimethylamino)-4′-nitrotolane (DMANT), 4-(diethylamino)-4′-nitrotolane (DEANT), and 1-((4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)ethynyl)-4-((4-nitrophenyl)ethynyl)benzene (DMAPEANT) in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA), and poly(isobutyl methacrylate) (PiBMA). In each of these systems, the isothermal, sub-Tg decay of the second-order optical susceptibility χ(2) was monitored as a function of pressure using second harmonic generation. In each system, the observed decay of χ(2) was represented by a stretched exponential equation from which the decay time τ0 and decay distribution width βKWW were determined. For each dopant molecule, the decrease in activation volume with the increasing size of the polymer host's alkyl side group and the pressure dependence of βKWW were indicative of partial coupling between chromophore rotation and the glassy β relaxation dynamics of the polymer host. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Immiscible polymer blend films were formed by air drying aqueous dispersions containing mixtures of a high-Tg latex, poly(methyl methacrylate), and a film-forming low-Tg latex, poly(butyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate). Fluorescence energy transfer experiments were used to characterize the interfaces in these films, in which one component was labeled with a donor dye and the other with an acceptor. The quantum efficiency of energy transfer (ΦET) between the donors and acceptors is influenced by the interfacial contact area between the two polymer phases. As the amount of soft component in the blend is increased, ΦET approaches an asymptotic value, consistent with complete coverage of the hard polymer surface with soft polymer. This limiting extent of energy transfer is very sensitive to the total surface area in the film, with correspondingly more energy transfer at constant volume fraction for small hard particles. Some of the details of the energy transfer are revealed through a fluorescence lifetime distribution analysis. The presence of ionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate) in the dispersion from which the latex blend film is prepared reduces the cross-boundary energy transfer by 30%, which implies that in these films the surfactant decreases the interfacial contact. After annealing the surfactant-free blends above 100°C, we observe an increase in energy transfer, consistent with a broader interface between the two polymers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Nylon 6 9 has been shown to have structures with interchain hydrogen bonds in both two and in three directions. Chain-folded lamellar crystals were studied using transmission electron microscopy and sedimented crystal mats and uniaxially oriented fibers studied by X-ray diffraction. The principal room-temperature structure shows the two characteristic (interchain) diffraction signals at spacings of 0.43 and 0.38 nm, typical of α-phase nylons; however, nylon 6 9 is unable to form the α-phase hydrogen-bonded sheets without serious distortion of the all-trans polymeric backbone. Our structure has c and c* noncoincident and two directions of hydrogen bonding. Optimum hydrogen bonding can only occur if consecutive pairs of amide units alternate between two crystallographic planes. The salient features of our model offer a possible universal solution for the crystalline state of all odd-even nylons. The nylon 6 9 room-temperature structure has a C-centered monoclinic unit cell (β = 108°) with the hydrogen bonds along the C-face diagonals; this structure bears a similarity to that recently proposed for nylons 6 5 and X3. On heating nylon 6 9 lamellar crystals and fibers, the two characteristic diffraction signals converge and meet at 0.42 nm at the Brill temperature, TB · TB for nylon 6 9 lamellar crystals is slightly below the melting point (Tm), whereas TB for nylon 6 9 fibers is ≅ 100°C below Tm. Above TB, nylon 6 9 has a hexagonal unit cell; the alkane segments exist in a mobile phase and equivalent hydrogen bonds populate the three principal (hexagonal) directions. A structure with perturbed hexagonal symmetry, which bears a resemblance to the reported γ-phase for nylons, can be obtained by quenching from the crystalline growth phase (above TB) to room temperature. We propose that this structure is a “quenched-in” perturbed form of the nylon 6 9 high-temperature hexagonal phase and has interchain hydrogen bonds in all three principal crystallographic directions. In this respect it differs importantly from the γ-phase models. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 1153-1165, 1998

    Notes: The dynamics of amorphous aromatic polyesters consisting of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(ethylene isophthalate) (PEI), and poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate) (PEN) has been investigated by means of solid state CPMAS 13C NMR. Proton T2, 13C T1ρ, and proton T1ρ decays have been measured in particular, and the experimental data fitted to suitable model functions to determine best relaxation parameters. The fitting results show for proton T2 and 13C T1ρ measurements the presence of two components with different relaxation times and intensities, arising from different motional domains. The proton T1ρ, on the contrary, shows a single component which limits the dimensions of the two regions to less than 20 Angstroms. The dependence of 13C T1ρ values on two different irradiating field strengths (H1 = 38 KHz, H1 = 60 KHz) allowed the assignment of each component to relatively rigid and mobile regions. By comparing the three polymers we observe that PEN and PEI have a similar relaxation behavior, while a higher fraction of mobile components was found for PET. These differences are believed to arise mainly from local motions of the aromatic rings. The relaxation measurements have been evaluated to suggest a correspondence to O2 and CO2 gas permeabilities in PET, PEI, and PEN. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The glass transition can be measured at different experimental conditions. Using spectroscopic methods at relative high frequency the α-relaxation is measured in the thermodynamic equilibrium. In the caloric case we call this phenomenon thermal relaxation transition (TRT). With a conventional differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) the transition of the equilibrium (the melt) into a nonequilibrium (the glassy state) is measured. This effect is called thermal glass transition (TGT). In contrast to the TGT, the TRT can be described using the linear response approach. The temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) technique superimposes a periodical temperature perturbation upon the constant scanning rate of conventional DSC. This technique combines a spectroscopic method with a linear temperature scan. Both the TGT and the TRT are measured simultaneous. Because the frequencies are relatively low in a TMDSC experiment, the temperature ranges of both transitions overlap. In this case, the experimental results show an influence of the TGT on the TRT. The reason of that is the deviation from the nonequilibrium. In this case, the fictive temperature is different from the external temperature. This effect can be described by means of a Tool-Narayanaswamy-Moynihan model for the TGT. Based on this model, a description of the complex heat capacity close to the thermal glass transition is shown. The influence of the beginning freezing-in process on the thermal relaxation is characterized by the fictive temperature. Using the presented description, a quantitative calculation of the nonlinear effects in the thermal relaxation is possible. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The yield stress behavior of a range of polyethylene materials which differ with respect to their short chain branch content has been studied. Measurements carried out over a wide range of temperatures have shown that there is a sudden transition in the behavior of the yield stress at a temperature which is dependent on both the grade of material and the applied strain rate. These results are in agreement with previous results found from analysis of the yield strain behavior.Above the transition temperature the materials all behave in a nonlinear viscoelastic manner, and the yield process is considered as being propagation controlled. Below the transition temperature the materials all behave in an elastic-plastic manner, and the yield process is considered as being nucleation controlled. Below the transition temperature the temperature dependence of the yield stress is determined by the thickness of the crystalline lamellae. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym.

    Notes: The thermal stability of a short carbon-fiber-reinforced PEEK composite was assessed by thermogravimetry and by a Rheometrics dynamic analyzer. The results indicated that holding for 10 min at 380°C was a suitable melting condition to avoid the thermooxidative degradation under air. After proving that the heating rate of 50°C/min can be used to evaluate the crystallinity, a heating stage was used to prepare nonisothermally crystallized specimens using cooling rates from 1 to 100°C/min after melting at 400°C for 3 or 15 min. The degree of crystallinity and the melting behavior of these specimens were investigated by DSC at a heating rate of 50°C/min. The presence of three or four regions indicated that the upper melting temperature, Tm, changed with the crystallization temperature. The first region with the highest Tm, which corresponded to the cooling rate of 1°C/min, can be associated with the crystallization in regime II. There was a second region where Tm decreased as the amount of crystals formed in regime II decreased with increasing cooling rate from 5 to 20°C/min. The third region, a plateau region, corresponded to regime III condition in which the crystals were imperfect. In the fourth region, the cooling was so fast that crystallization was incomplete during the cooling for the melting condition of 400°C for 15 min. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci.

    Notes: Thermoplastic elastomer gels (TPEGs) composed of a poly[styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene] triblock copolymer and a low-volatility, midblock-compatible mineral oil have been investigated here to ascertain the effects of composition on TPEG morphology, and temperature on mechanical properties. Cryofracture-replication transmission electron micrographs reveal the existence of spheroidal bumps due to copolymer micelles, as well as a network of irregularly shaped, high-aspect-ratio features. Since the density of this network decreases with increasing oil concentration, these features are attributed to copolymer grain boundaries. Micellar periodicities are discerned from small-angle X-ray scattering as a function of copolymer concentration and compared with previously reported data from related systems. Dynamic rheological tests performed up to 140°C indicate that the linear viscoelastic regime for these TPEGs decreases with both increasing copolymer concentration and temperature. A concentration-dependent thermal transition, signified by an abrupt reduction in the dynamic elastic modulus (G′), has also been identified.© 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym.

    Notes: We report the application of an ultrasonic shear wave reflection technique for the investigation of film formation and crystallization kinetics of one amorphous and two semicrystalline polychloroprene samples with different gel content. Both isothermal and temperature-dependent measurements of the complex dynamic shear modulus (G* = G′ + iG″) have been performed at a frequency of 5.32 MHz. The process of film formation during the evaporation of water is expressed by a stepwise increase of the shear modulus. For the semicrystalline samples a further increase, which is due to crystallization, can be observed. Film formation and crystallization are delayed for the sample with high gel content and its minor final modulus is explained by a lower degree of crystallinity. The time-dependent increase of the shear modulus due to the growth of spherulites has been analyzed by the Avrami equation combined with the Kerner model for the modulus of a two-phase composite (spherulites in an amorphous matrix). The dynamic shear modulus for the spherulites has been estimated by a model introduced by Halpin and Kardos. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 2949-2959, 1998

    Notes: Random copolymers of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) were synthesized by melt condensation. In a series of thin, solvent cast films of varying PEN content, acetone diffusivity and solubility were determined at 35°C and an acetone pressure of 5.4 cm Hg. The kinetics of acetone sorption in the copolymer films are well described by a Fickian model. Both solubility and diffusivity decrease with increasing PEN content. The acetone diffusion coefficient decreases 93% from PET to PET/85PEN, a copolymer in which 85 weight percent of the dimethyl terephthalate in PET has been replace by dimethyl naphthalate 2,6-dicarboxylate. The acetone solubility coefficient in the amorphous regions of the polymer decreases by approximately a factor of two over the same composition range. The glass/rubber transition temperatures of these materials rise monotonically with increasing PEN content. Copolymers containing 20 to 80 wt % PEN are amorphous. Samples with 〈20% or 〉80% PEN contain measurable levels of crystallinity. Estimated fractional free volume in the amorphous regions of these samples is lower in the copolymers than in either of the homopolymers. Relative free volume as probed by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) decreases systematically with increasing PEN content. Acetone diffusion coefficients correlate well with PALS results. Infrared spectroscopy suggests an increase in the fraction of ethylene glycol units in the trans conformation in the amorphous phase as the concentration of PEN in the copolymer increases. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Epoxy resins absorb significant quantities of moisture, typically 1 to 7% by weight for various formulations, which can greatly compromise their physical properties. It is known that polarity of the epoxy is a significant factor in determining the ultimate moisture uptake. However, the contribution from molecular topology still remains vague. In this work, the effects of molecular topology are elucidated by synthesizing novel epoxies where the polarity is maintained constant but the topology is systematically altered. The molecular topology is quantified in part via Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) in terms of the nanometer-sized voids, or nanovoids, that are also commensurate with typical interchain distances. The nanovoids are separated into their absolute zero and thermally fluctuating fractions by performing PALS measurements over a wide range of temperatures. A strong correlation is observed between the absolute zero hole volume fraction and the ultimate moisture uptake. Although the correlation is clear, the absolute zero hole volume fraction alone is not sufficient to predict the ultimate moisture uptake, and network polarity must also be considered. It is surmised that the role of the nanovoids is to open the epoxy matrix and alleviate steric hindrances that may prevent a water molecule from associating with a polar group. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Monomeric friction factors, Ξ, for polystyrene (PS), polyisoprene (PI), and a polystyrene-polyisoprene (SI) diblock copolymer have been determined as a function of temperature in four poly(styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene-b-isoprene) tetrablock copolymer matrices. The Rouse model has been used to calculate the friction factors from tracer diffusion coefficients measured by forced Rayleigh scattering. Within the experimental temperature range the tetrablock copolymers are disordered, allowing for measurement of the diffusion coefficient in matrices with average compositions determined by the tetrablock copolymers (23, 42, 60, and 80% styrene by volume). Remarkably, for a given matrix composition the styrene and isoprene friction factors are essentially equivalent. Furthermore, at a constant interval from the system glass transition temperature, Tg, all of the friction factors (obtained from homopolymer, diblock copolymer, and tetrablock copolymer dynamics) agree to within an order of magnitude. This is in marked contrast to results for miscible polymer blends, where the individual components generally have distinct composition dependences and magnitudes at constant T - Tg. The homopolymer friction factors in the tetrablock matrices were systematically slightly higher than those of the diblock, which in turn were slightly higher than those of the homopolymers in their respective melts, when all compared at constant T - Tg. This is attributed to the local spatial distribution of styrene and isoprene segments in the tetrablocks, which presents a nonuniform free energy surface to the tracer molecules. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: We studied translational diffusion of dilute monodisperse spheres (diameters 14 〈 d 〈 455 nm) in aqueous 1 MDa hydroxypropylcellulose (0 ≤ c ≤ 7 g/L) at 25°C using quasielastic light scattering. Spectra are highly bimodal. The two spectral modes (“slow,” “fast”) have different physical properties. Probe behavior differs between small (d 〈 Rh) and large (d ≥ Rg) probes; Rh and Rg are the matrix polymer hydrodynamic radius and the radius of gyration, respectively. We examined the dependences of spectral lineshape parameters on d, c, scattering vector q, and viscosity η for all four probe-size and mode-type combinations. We find three time scale-separated modes: (1) a large-probe slow mode has properties characteristic of particle motion in a viscous medium; (2) a large-probe fast mode and small-probe slow modes share the same time scale, and have properties characteristic of probe motion coupled to internal chain dynamics; and (3) a small-probe fast mode has properties that can be attributed to the probe sampling local chain relaxations. In the analysis, we also attempted to apply the coupling/scaling (CS) model of Ngai and Phillies [Ngai, K. L., Phillies, G. D. J. J. Chem. Phys., 105, 8385 (1996)] to analyze our data. We find that the second mode is described by the coupling/scaling model for probe diffusion; the first and third modes do not follow the predictions of this model. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The structure of a thermotropic liquid crystalline copoly(ester-imide) prepared from p-hydroxybenzoic acid (48 mol %), 4,4′-dihydroxybenzophenone (26 mol %), and N,N′-bis(trimellitimide)hexane (26 mol %) has been investigated by X-ray diffraction. X-ray fiber diagrams of as-spun and annealed fibers contain a series of aperiodic layer lines reminiscent of those seen for fibers of other copolymers that have extended chain conformations and completely random monomer sequences. The positions of these layer lines were reproduced approximately in simulation of the X-ray scattering by a fully extended chain of completely random sequence, and the match was improved to within experimental error when we considered a stereochemically acceptable sinuous chain. This agreement was lost when the sequence statistics deviated were completely random. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 36: 3137-3145, 1998

    Notes: The systems of diepoxides cured with primary amine in presence of an monoepoxide, monofunctional reactive, under equal stoichiometric ratio has been analyzed by a generating function method. The average degree of polymerization, which changed with time or conversion, and gel point were calculated. The profiles of the degree of polymerization and critical conversion are dependent on the content of and relative reactivities of epoxy groups. For a system with the same ratio, the critical epoxy conversion increases with increasing reactivity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym. Phys. 36: 2339-2348, 1998

    Notes: The synthesis and a partial characterization of segmented liquid crystalline polymers with 3,3′-diallyl-4,4′-dihydroxybiphenyl unit in the rigid moiety is reported. The general formula of polymers is [-p-C6H4-COO-p-C6H3(R)-p-C6H3(R)-OOC-p-C6H4-O-(CH2)nO-]x, with n = 6, 8, 10, 12, and R = —CH2—CH=CH2. All polymers have nematic liquid-crystalline behavior. At room temperature, annealed fiber samples of polymers show a complex polymorphism. Three phases have been isolated with very large unit cells accommodating 6 or 12 chains. The projection of the molecular packing in a plane perpendicular to the c axis is characterized by the organization of chains in a two-dimensional hexagonal or quasi-hexagonal array. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: 6FDA-pMDA polyimide membranes were implanted with 140 keV N+ ions to fluences between 2 × 1014 and 5 × 1015 cm-2. Variable energy positron annihilation spectra were taken and spectral features compared to previously reported changes in gas permeability and permselectivity of these membranes as a function of ion fluence. Positron data corroborate the explanation of these changes in terms of molecular damage caused by the implant: for fluences up to about 1 × 1015 cm-2, the concentration of irradiation-induced defects merely increases with implant fluence; while fluences exceeding this threshold value create a second type of positron annihilation site, thereby marking a distinct change in the structure of the polymer, which is responsible for the vast improvement of gas permselectivity data found at the same threshold fluence.

    Notes: We present results from a numerical study of a coarse-grained model of diblock copolymer (BCP) thin films cast on a chemically patterned surface. The patterned surface contains chemical inhomogeneities with a repeat spacing length scale comparable to the linear size of the BCP molecules. We find that the orientation of the lamellae in the thin film and the overlap of the film morphology with the preassigned surface pattern is strongly influenced by the commensurability between the bulk unconstrained lamellar size λ*, and the linear size of the surface inhomogeneities w.
