Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the fields of polymer chemistry and materials science, and particularly relates to a preparation method and a modification method of aromatic polythiourea compounds. Background Art

[0002] Aromatic polythioureas are a class of classic sulfur-containing polymers, which have excellent properties such as high refractive index, high breakdown strength, and efficient metal coordination ability, and have a wide range of application scenarios in optoelectronic materials and other fields. The existing methods for synthesizing aromatic polythioureas are mainly the reactions of diamine monomers with active sulfur-containing compounds, including sulfur sources such as thiourea, thiophosgene, diisothiocyanate, and carbon disulfide. However, these methods have some disadvantages. For example, the reaction conditions of thiourea monomers and amines require high-energy-consuming microwave assistance; thiophosgene is a highly toxic drug; the synthesis and purification of diisothiocyanate are complex; although carbon disulfide can efficiently synthesize aliphatic polythioureas with aliphatic amine monomers, there are problems such as low molecular weight, low yield, and release of toxic hydrogen sulfide gas in the preparation of aromatic polythioureas. The above factors are not conducive to the development of aromatic polythioureas with diverse structures and novel functions (Adv. Mater., 2013, 25, 1734 - 1738.; J. Mater. Chem. A, 2015, 3, 14845 - 14852.; Macromolecules 2019, 52, 22, 8596–8603).

[0003] The main-chain restructuring chemistry of polymers is an efficient way to edit the main-chain structure of polymers. Different from traditional post-modification, this modification method can construct polymers with new main-chain structures and material functions. The research on the synthesis, function, application, and recycling of aromatic polythioureas has been close to saturation. If it is regarded as a polymer modification precursor for research, it may bring unexpected breakthroughs to the field of sulfur-containing polymers (Nature Reviews Chemistry, 2023, 7, 9, 600 - 615.).

[0004] Therefore, it is of great scientific and industrial value to develop a synthesis method of aromatic polythioureas with simple synthesis, mild conditions, and high reaction efficiency and to achieve the main-chain restructuring of aromatic polythioureas. Summary of the Invention

[0052] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0053] In the following examples, the molar amount or molar concentration of the polymer is calculated based on the molar amount of the repeating unit of the polymer.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] An aromatic polythiourea compound, whose structural formula is shown as P1:

[0056]

[0057] The described aromatic polythiourea compound is prepared by the direct reaction of carbon disulfide and aromatic diamine in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the reaction formula is as formula (I):

[0058]

[0059] Among them, monomer 2 is 1,4-diaminodiphenylmethane, and the solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide, both of which can be purchased from the market. In this example, they are purchased from Aladdin Industrial Corporation; 1 is carbon disulfide, which can be purchased from the market. In this example, it is purchased from TCI.

[0060] The synthesis steps of the described aromatic polythiourea are as follows: Under an air atmosphere, monomer 1 and monomer 2 are sequentially added to a polymerization tube according to a molar ratio of 1.5:1, and dimethyl sulfoxide is injected until the concentration of monomer 2 is 0.67 mol / L. The temperature is raised to 80 °C, and the temperature is kept constant while stirring at a rate of 400 rpm for 12 h; after the reaction is completed, the reaction mother liquor is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and then it is dropped into methanol, allowed to stand, filtered, and dried to obtain the described aromatic polythiourea compound P1.

[0061] After determination and analysis, the yield of the final product aromatic polythiourea compound P1 is 98%, the number-average molecular weight is 37800 g / mol, and the molecular weight distribution is 1.93.

[0062] To prove the oxidation-promoting effect of dimethyl sulfoxide in the polymerization reaction of carbon disulfide and aromatic diamine, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) were used as reaction solvents for verification (Table 1). By keeping the concentration of monomer 2 unchanged and adding different proportions of DMF and DMSO, when gradually increasing the solvent proportion of DMSO, the molecular weight and yield of the reaction product showed an obvious upward trend. The yield increased from 40% to 98%, and the number-average molecular weight increased from 4100 g / mol to 37800 g / mol. And in the reaction system with 1 mL or more of DMSO added, sulfur powder or sulfur crystals would precipitate as the reaction proceeded. The atmosphere at the end of the reaction in the reaction system with 1 mL or more of DMSO added was monitored by aqueous silver nitrate solution, and no obvious generation of hydrogen sulfide gas was found, indicating that dimethyl sulfoxide might play an oxidation-promoting role in the reaction system.

[0063] Table 1

[0064]

[0065] The input amount of monomer 2 (2 mmol) and CS2 (3 mmol), the temperature was 80 °C, and the reaction time was 12 h.

[0071] The synthesis steps of the said polyindanone-thiourea compound are as follows: Under an air atmosphere, polymer P1 and reactant 3 were successively added to a polymerization tube according to a molar ratio of 1:1.5, and dimethyl sulfoxide was injected until the concentration of P1 was 0.5 mol / L. Then the temperature was raised to 80 °C, and the temperature was kept unchanged while stirring at a rate of 400 rpm for 4 h; after the reaction ended, the reaction mother liquor was diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and then it was dropped into methanol, allowed to stand, filtered, and dried to obtain the said polymer P1n.

[0072] After determination and analysis, the yield of the final product dihydroxy polyindanone-thiourea compound P1n was 96%, the number-average molecular weight was 20100 g / mol, and the molecular weight distribution was 1.36.

[0073] The comparison chart of the 1H NMR spectra of the polythiourea compound and its corresponding monomer is shown in Figure 1 . Compared with the thiourea model compound, in the 1H NMR spectrum of the polythiourea compound P1 ( Figure 1 C in), the chemical shift value of the H in -NH- of the thiourea group is at a low field of 9.66 ppm, which is close to the chemical shift value of 9.42 ppm of the -NH- hydrogen of the thiourea group in the model molecule ( Figure 1 A in). The chemical shift value of the alkyl hydrogen -CH2- connected to the benzene ring is at a high field of 3.87 ppm. There are two sets of aromatic hydrogens on the benzene ring, and their chemical shift values are doublets at 7.36 ppm and 7.18 ppm. Similarly, in the 13C NMR spectrum, for the polythiourea P1 ( Figure 1 G in), the chemical shift value of C═S is at 179.94 ppm, and -CH2- is at 40.88 ppm. For the thiourea model compound ( Figure 1 E in), the chemical shift value of C═S is at 180.66 ppm.

[0074] The comparison chart of the 1H NMR spectra of the polythiourea compound and its modified polymer is shown in Figure 1 . Compared with the thiourea model compound ( Figure 1 A in), the -NH- peak of the thiourea group is not found at 9.42 ppm in the indanone-fused thiourea model compound ( Figure 1 B in), and characteristic peaks of dihydroxy -OH appear at 7.80 ppm and 7.74 ppm. Compared with the polythiourea ( Figure 1 C in), for the poly(indanone-fused thiourea) ( Figure 1 D in), the H in -NH- of the thiourea group at 9.66 ppm disappears, and characteristic peaks of dihydroxy -OH appear at 7.82 ppm and 7.85 ppm. The dihydroxy peaks of the indanone-fused thiourea model compound are at 7.80 ppm and 7.74 ppm, which are close to the characteristic peaks of the polymer. In the 13C NMR spectrum, for the poly(indanone-fused thiourea) ( Figure 1 H in), the chemical shift value of C═S is at 179.61 ppm, and the chemical shift value of C═O is at 194.35 ppm. Its C═S peak is close to the chemical shift value of 179.94 ppm of C═S of the polythiourea.

For the polythiourea P1, the stretching vibration absorption peak of the C═S bond is at 1530 cm -1 , and the stretching vibration peak of N-H is at 3254 cm -1 . For the poly(indanone-fused thiourea) N-P1, the stretching vibration absorption peak of the C═S bond is at 1520 cm -1 , and the stretching vibration peak of O-H is at 3600 - 3200 cm -1 .

[0076] Example 2

[0077] An aromatic polythiourea compound, the structural formula of which is shown in P2:

[0078]

[0079] The said polythiourea compound is prepared by the direct reaction of carbon disulfide and aromatic diamine in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the reaction formula is as shown in formula (III):

[0080]

[0081] Among them, monomer 4 is 1,4-diaminodiphenyl ether, and the solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide, both of which can be purchased from the market. In this example, they are purchased from Aladdin; 1 is carbon disulfide, which can be purchased from the market. In this example, it is purchased from the company.

[0082] The synthesis steps of the said polythiourea are as follows: Under an air atmosphere, monomer 1 and monomer 4 are successively added to a polymerization tube according to a molar ratio of 1.5:1, and dimethyl sulfoxide is injected until the concentration of monomer 4 is 0.67 mol / L. The temperature is raised to 80 °C, and the temperature is kept constant while stirring at a rate of 400 rpm for 12 h; after the reaction is completed, the reaction mother liquor is dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and then it is dropped into methanol, allowed to stand, filtered, and dried to obtain the said aromatic polythiourea compound P2.

[0083] After determination and analysis, the yield of the final product, the aromatic polythiourea compound P2, is 99%, the number-average molecular weight is 59400 g / mol, and the molecular weight distribution is 1.52.

[0084] The modified polyindenedione thiourea compound, the structural formula of which is shown in P2n:

[0085]

[0086] The said polyindenedione thiourea compound is prepared by the direct reaction of aromatic polythiourea and ninhydrin, and the reaction formula is as shown in formula (IV):

[0087]

[0088] Among them, monomer 3 is ninhydrin, and the solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide, both of which can be purchased from the market. In this example, they are purchased from Aladdin;

[0089] The synthesis steps of the described dihydroxypolyindanone thiourea compound are as follows: Under an air atmosphere, polymer P2 and reactant 3 are sequentially added to a polymerization tube in a molar ratio of 1:1.5. Dimethyl sulfoxide is injected until the concentration of P2 is 0.5 mol / L. The temperature is raised to 80 °C, and the temperature is kept constant while stirring at a rate of 400 rpm for 4 h. After the reaction is completed, the reaction mother liquor is diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and then it is dropped into methanol, allowed to stand, filtered, and dried to obtain the polymer P2n described above.

[0090] Upon determination and analysis, the yield of the final product, the dihydroxypolyindanone thiourea compound P2n, is 96%, the number-average molecular weight is 33500 g / mol, and the molecular weight distribution is 1.18.

[0091] Example 3

[0092] In Example 1, polymer P1 was spin-coated into a film and tested. 30 mg of polymer P1 was weighed and dissolved in 1 mL of N,N-dimethylacetamide, and then 20 mL of chlorobenzene was added and mixed thoroughly. Then it was filtered through a 0.22 mm nylon filter membrane, and 40 mL of the filtrate was dropped onto a 2.0 cm * 2.0 cm silicon wafer for spin-coating. The selected spin coater model was KW-41, and the rotation speed was 2000 rpm. The prepared film was vacuum-dried for 12 h, and then its refractive index was measured by a variable-angle spectroscopic ellipsometer. The selected instrument model was V-VASE. The wavelength range was 400 - 1700 nm, the film thickness was 157 nm, and the relationship spectrum of its refractive index with wavelength was as Figure 3 shown. The results showed that the refractive index of the polymer P1 film was 1.754 at a wavelength of 590 nm, 1.7455 at 633 nm, and still maintained a high refractive index of 1.7041 at a wavelength of 1700 nm. The polymers P1n, P2, and P2n synthesized in Example 1 and Example 2 were used to prepare polymer films according to the film-forming method of polymer P1, and the refractive index was measured. The refractive index of the P2 polymer film was 1.7574 at 633 nm, and the thickness was 152 nm; the refractive index of the P1n polymer film was 1.7006 at 633 nm, and the thickness was 125 nm. Its Abbe number increased from 16.2 (P1) to 20.9 (P1n); the refractive index of the P2n polymer film was 1.7200 at 633 nm, and the thickness was 133 nm. Its Abbe number increased from 16.6 (P2) to 19.1 (P2n). The above data indicate that polythiourea has excellent optical properties and can adjust the refractive index and Abbe number through main-chain reconstruction.

[0093] Next, the synthesized polymers were used to prepare dumbbell-shaped specimens. Since the film-forming properties of polythioureas P1 and P2 were poor, their mechanical properties could not be tested ( Figure 4), only the mechanical properties after polymer reconstruction were tested. Figure 5 ) Dissolve 600 mg of P1n polymer in 6 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide. After adding the solution to an aluminum foil dish and placing it in a vacuum oven, slowly evacuate the air. Heat it to 120 °C and keep it for 24 hours to obtain a polymer film. Cut the film using an international type-IV dumbbell-shaped spline mold. Then, test the dumbbell-shaped spline through a universal tensile machine. The relationship diagram of stress and strain is as Figure 5 shown. The results show that the tensile strength of polymer P1n is 39.5 MPa and the elongation at break is 33%; the tensile strength of P2n is 55.7 MPa and the elongation at break is 66%. The above data indicate that ninhydrin can be used as an editing tool to adjust the polymer backbone structure and regulate the polymer flexibility, so as to prepare polythiourea derivatives with good tensile properties.

[0094] To test the luminescence spectrum, prepare a DMSO polymer solution with a concentration of 10 -3 mol / L and a DMSO indanethiourea solution with a concentration of 10 -3 mol / L. As Figure 6 shown, aromatic polythiourea P1 has no luminescence property, while the polymer shows luminescence property due to the structural change after the backbone reconstruction. However, there are no obvious chromophores and luminescence units in the polymer and ninhydrin. Therefore, this may be the cluster luminescence phenomenon caused by the interaction between the reconstructed dihydroxy groups and sulfur atoms. The luminescence wavelengths of P1n and P2n are 586 nm and 602 nm. By comparing the luminescence spectra of the model compound indanethiourea and polymer P2n, the luminescence wavelength of the polymer has a certain red shift relative to the small molecule, and the luminescence has a certain enhancement trend. This may be due to the change in the intramolecular aggregation state, resulting in the change of luminescence properties. Finally, it is proved that ninhydrin can be used as a backbone editing tool to construct new functional polymers.

[0095] The above examples show that the refractive index of the film prepared from the polythiourea compounds prepared by the present invention reaches 1.7574, and the Abbe number reaches 16.6, having excellent optical properties; the refractive index of the reconstructed polymer film of polythiourea prepared by the present invention reaches 1.7200, and the Abbe number reaches 20.9. In addition to having good refractive properties, it also has good mechanical properties. The tensile strength can reach 55.7 MPa and the elongation at break is 66%; the modified polymer has certain luminescence properties. And the reaction raw materials of the preparation method of the present invention can be commercially purchased, and the polymerization process is simple, the synthesis conditions are mild, the polymerization efficiency is high, and it can be prepared on a large scale.

[0096] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
