摘要

Abstract

A convenient real-time monitoring of monomer concentration during living cationic ring-opening polymerizations of tetrahydrofuran (THF) initiated with methyl triflate (MeOTf) has been developed for kinetic investigation and determination of equilibrium monomer concentration ([M]

)

via in situ

FTIR spectroscopy in combination with a diamond tipped attenuated total reflectance (ATR) immersion probe. The polymerization rate was first order with respect to monomer concentration and initiator concentration from the linear slope of ln([M]

−[M]

)/([M]−[M]

) versus polymerization time at different temperatures in various solvents. [M]

decreased linearly with initial monomer concentration while increased exponentially with increasing polymerization temperature. The equilibrium also strongly depends on solvent polarity and its interaction with monomer. The equilibrium polymerization time (

) decreased with increasing solvent polarity and decreased linearly with increasing [M]

in three solvents with different slopes to the same point of bulk polymerization in the absence of solvent. Equation of

= 72.1/(0.14–0.04[M]

) has been established to provide a simple and effective approach for the prediction for the number-average molecular weight of polyTHFs at equilibrium state (

) in the equilibrium living cationic ring-opening polymerization of THF at 0 °C.
