Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing polyolefins. Background Art
[0002] Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP) is a living polymerization reaction and is widely used in the synthesis of polyolefin materials. In most cases, the polymerization reaction is carried out in solution. Affected by the chain transfer side reaction, the highest molecular weight that the obtained product can reach is limited. When the polymerization reaction is carried out in the gas phase, the movement of the polymer chains is restricted, the chain transfer side reaction is inhibited, and a product with a higher molecular weight can be obtained. By loading the catalyst on a solid substrate and polymerizing gaseous cycloolefin monomers, the obtained polycyclopentene can reach a number average molecular weight of more than 1 million, which exceeds three times the upper limit of the reported solution polymerization molecular weight, while maintaining a polydispersity index of less than 1.5 (ACS Macro Letters, 2017, 6, 2, 112-116). The obtained material can be hydrogenated to obtain ultra-high molecular weight and unbranched polyethylene. This polymerization method is applicable to many common monomers for ring-opening metathesis polymerization reactions, such as cyclopentene, cyclohexadiene, cycloheptene, norbornene, cyclooctene, 1,5-cyclooctadiene, cyclooctatetraene, 1,5,9-cyclododecatriene, etc. At the same time, because the use of solvents is avoided during the reaction process, the production cost and environmental pollution are reduced.
[0003] Previously reported similar technologies in the literature require additional surface treatment and cumbersome synthetic steps of catalyst bonding, and the catalyst loading is low, which affects the polymer yield (Langmuir, 2017, 23, 1004-1006; Langmuir 2011, 27, 5403-5409; Langmuir, 2017, 33, 13903-13912); or there is no monomer purification step before polymerization. In all reports, due to the insufficient amount of the obtained product for molecular weight detection, the characterization of the product molecular weight or polydispersity index is lacking. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method for preparing polyolefins. The method of the present invention overcomes the cumbersome operations in the prior art, loads the catalyst on the substrate material in the reaction vessel, and carries out a gas-solid polymerization reaction, so as to obtain a polyolefin product with ultra-high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution.
[0005] The present invention provides a method for preparing polyolefins, wherein a cycloolefin monomer is used as the gas phase, and the catalyst is loaded on the substrate material, and the catalyst is in a solid phase;
[0006] The cycloolefin monomer is subjected to a gas-solid polymerization reaction under the action of the catalyst to obtain the polyolefin;
[0007] The loading amount of the catalyst on the substrate material is 0.5 to 1000 ppm, preferably 0.5 to 50 ppm.
[0008] After adding a purified cycloolefin monomer that does not directly contact the substrate, the monomer volatilized in the gas phase contacts the solid-phase catalyst, and a gas-solid polymerization reaction occurs. A polyolefin product with ultra-high molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution can be obtained. By controlling the catalyst loading, the molecular weight of the product can be controlled. Using an efficient ROMP catalyst makes the reaction have the characteristics of living polymerization, and the polymerization reaction occurs at the gas-solid interface and the content of non-cycloolefin impurities after monomer purification is reduced, reducing the chain transfer side reaction during the polymerization process, and finally obtaining a polymerization product with a narrow molecular weight distribution.
[0009] After the reaction is completed, the product is peeled off from the substrate material to obtain the product.
[0010] In actual preparation operations, since the cycloolefin raw material may contain linear olefin impurities, these impurities will reduce the molecular weight of the product and broaden the molecular weight distribution as chain transfer reagents during the polymerization process. Therefore, it is very important to purify the monomer to remove the linear olefins. The methods for monomer purification include distillation and hydroboration, or a combination of both. In the hydroboration method, a borane molecule is added to the monomer. The borane has a higher reactivity with linear olefins. The hydroboration product obtained after the reaction has a high boiling point, is difficult to volatilize, and does not have reaction activity, so it will not affect the polymerization process. The borane molecule is shown in Formula 6, where R1 and R2 are the same or different C1-C20 hydrocarbon groups, and R1 and R2 may be connected to form a monocyclic or polycyclic group. The preferred borane is 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN). The addition amount of the borane depends on the content of linear olefin impurities in the monomer, and is preferably 5 to 20 times the molar amount of the impurities. The present invention preferably first purifies the monomer by distillation and then further reduces the impurity content by hydroboration.

[0081] Comparative Example 3
[0082] In this comparative example, reactor A was used. 0.92 mg of Grubbs 1st catalyst was weighed and dissolved in 200 mL of toluene. 2 mL of the catalyst solution was taken with a syringe and added to the bottom of outer flask 5.

[0083] It can be seen from the results of the examples and comparative examples that the polymer obtained by gas-solid polymerization has a higher molecular weight than that obtained by solution polymerization. As the reaction temperature decreases, the molecular weight of the polymer further increases. Due to the limitations of the analytical instrument, we can only measure the polymer samples that can be dissolved at room temperature. In some cases, the polymer is partially insoluble at room temperature. Therefore, we speculate that the actual molecular weight of the polymer is higher than the measured result.
[0084] Synthesis Example 1
[0085] 1 g of the polymer obtained in Example 7 was added to a 100 mL round-bottom flask, and 5 mg of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and 70 mL of xylene were added. After heating under reflux at 140 °C until the polymer was dissolved, 12.5 mL of tributylamine and 9 g of p-toluenesulfonylhydrazide were added, and stirring was continued for 12 hours. The hot solution was poured into 500 mL of cold methanol for precipitation, and the obtained solid was dried in vacuo to obtain 1.03 g of a white solid. As Figure 3 shown, using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance carbon spectrum CP / MAS 13 13C NMR measurement showed that the obtained product only showed a peak at 35 ppm and no peaks in the range of 100 to 150 ppm. Therefore, the double bonds in the raw material were completely hydrogenated, and the obtained product was unbranched polyethylene.
