Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemistry and polymer synthesis, and in particular to a double acetylene palladium catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The polymerization of isonitriles is an important route to construct nitrogen-containing polymer materials. Its product, polyisocyanates, exhibits unique application prospects in optoelectronic materials, self-healing elastomers, and biomedical polymers due to their potential as typical C1 polymers and their conjugated properties. Currently, the catalysts commonly used for isonitrile polymerization include transition metal complexes, such as Ni(II), Pd(II), Pd(II)-Pt(II), or Rh(III) metal complexes; while organic small molecule catalysts include N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and phosphazene bases (t-Bu-P4). However, existing metal catalysts often have many problems, such as difficulty in controlling active polymerization, sensitivity to monomer substituents, and steric hindrance that reduces catalyst activity. Organic small molecule catalysts also have shortcomings such as sensitivity to the electronic properties of the monomers and the need for precise control of reaction conditions. Therefore, the creation of active polymerization catalysts for isonitriles remains challenging.
[0003] In recent years, Wu et al. have developed a class of unilateral alkyne palladium catalysts, with Pd(II)-OMe as its representative structure, which can achieve the active polymerization of a variety of isonitrile monomers and induce optically active chiral helical polymers through chiral ligands. Positive progress has been made in self-assembly, circularly polarized luminescence and bioantibacterial properties; however, its regulation of catalyst activity and efficient post-modification and functionalization of isonitrile polymers still deserve further exploration.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art are committed to developing a new catalyst with high catalytic activity, simple preparation and convenient synthesis for the active polymerization of phenyl isonitriles. Summary of the Invention

[0013] In some embodiments of the present invention, the cleaning is carried out by water washing, alkali washing and salt washing in sequence.
[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, the alkaline washing uses a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, and the salt washing uses a saturated sodium chloride solution.
