Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of organic synthesis and coating preparation, specifically to a cyclodimeric monomer for preparing electrochemically resistant pyrene coatings, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Metals and their alloys are widely used in critical fields such as industry, marine engineering, electronic devices, and biomedical implants. However, in humid, saline, or other electrolyte environments, metal surfaces are highly susceptible to electrochemical corrosion, leading to material performance degradation, structural failure, and even safety accidents, resulting in significant economic losses. Electrochemical corrosion is essentially a conjugate reaction of anodic dissolution (oxidation) and cathodic reduction (such as oxygen reduction) in an electrolyte solution. Two core electrochemical parameters for evaluating the corrosion resistance of metals are corrosion potential and corrosion current density. Corrosion current density directly characterizes the rate of the corrosion reaction; a lower value indicates a slower corrosion process. Corrosion potential, on the other hand, reflects the thermodynamic tendency of a metal to corrode; generally, a higher corrosion potential means the metal is less susceptible to oxidation. Therefore, developing efficient, stable, and durable surface protection technologies to simultaneously suppress both the thermodynamic tendency and kinetic rate of corrosion is crucial for extending the lifespan of metal components and ensuring equipment reliability.

[0003] Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of polymer-para-xylene (Parylene, such as Parylene C, N, F, etc.) coatings has become an important choice for high-end protection of precision components, electronic circuits, and medical devices due to its ability to form uniform, pinhole-free, chemically inert films with excellent barrier properties through vapor deposition at room temperature. This process achieves conformal coating by pyrolytic monomers (such as [2,2]-para-cycloaranes) at high temperatures into active monomers, which are then adsorbed and polymerized on the substrate surface at room temperature. The application of Parylene coatings to metal corrosion protection has been reported. Traditional Parylene coatings effectively isolate the metal substrate from direct contact with corrosive media, acting as a physical barrier and typically significantly reducing the corrosion current density of the metal, thereby slowing down the corrosion rate. However, those skilled in the art have discovered a common but often overlooked paradox: while reducing the corrosion current density, these traditional Parylene coatings often lead to a significant negative shift (reduction) in the metal's corrosion potential.

[0004] A negative shift in corrosion potential is an unfavorable signal, indicating that the protected metal has become thermodynamically more reactive and more susceptible to oxidation. While a decrease in corrosion current has a positive effect, the decline in corrosion potential weakens the overall corrosion resistance of the coating system. This is especially true when the coating has defects or is mechanically damaged, potentially accelerating the initiation and development of localized corrosion and reducing the safety margin of protection.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of phenelin monomer that can not only effectively reduce corrosion current density, but also improve the coating / metal interface characteristics through molecular structure design, thereby avoiding or minimizing the negative impact on corrosion potential. This would provide more durable and reliable protection in harsh electrochemical environments and broaden the application prospects of phenelin coatings in high-end electronic products, medical devices, marine equipment and other fields. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the issue that while existing pyrene monomer coatings on metal surfaces can reduce corrosion current density, they often lead to a significant negative shift in the metal's corrosion potential, thus limiting their potential to provide efficient and comprehensive protection in harsh corrosive environments, this invention provides a cyclic dimer monomer for preparing electrochemically resistant pyrene coatings, along with its preparation method and applications. By introducing a specific substituent, m-methoxyphenyl, onto a p-xylene cyclic dimer, 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene cyclic dimer is obtained. Pyrene coatings formed using this monomer exhibit excellent electrochemical corrosion resistance. Compared to existing corrosion-resistant coatings formed with pyrene monomers, they not only have lower corrosion current density but also higher corrosion potential, thus providing more durable and reliable protection in harsh electrochemical environments. This broadens the application prospects of pyrene coatings in high-end electronic products, medical devices, marine equipment, and other fields.

[0007] Specifically, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] The first aspect of this invention provides a cyclic dimer monomer for preparing a pyrene coating resistant to electrochemical corrosion, wherein the cyclic dimer monomer is a 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene cyclic dimer, the structure of which is as follows:

[0009] .

[0010] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the cyclic dimer monomer for preparing an electrochemically resistant pyrene coating as described in the first aspect, comprising the following steps:

[0011] S1. The p-xylene ring dimer was reacted with liquid bromine in the presence of a catalyst and a first solvent to obtain intermediate 1;

[0012] S2. Intermediate 1 is reacted with 3-hydroxyphenylboronic acid in the presence of an alkaline salt, a palladium catalyst and a second solvent to obtain intermediate 2.

[0014] The structures of intermediates 1 and 2 are shown below:

[0015] .

[0016] Compared to the traditional Grignard route, which involves brominating p-xylene cyclodimers, synthesizing Grignard reagents, and then synthesizing the target product via nucleophilic substitution, the intermediate Grignard reagents synthesized in this method are highly sensitive to water and oxygen, and the reaction conditions are harsh, posing significant safety risks for large-scale production. The synthetic method for preparing the aforementioned cyclodimer monomers provided by this invention primarily obtains the target product through bromination, borosilicate esterification, and transition metal catalytic coupling. This method offers milder reaction conditions, better tolerance to water and oxygen, reduced equipment and operational requirements, higher safety, and simpler operation. Furthermore, the palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction exhibits high chemical selectivity and fewer byproducts, which is beneficial for improving yield and product purity. Moreover, the above synthetic route allows for segmented production, with key intermediates that can be separated, purified, and tested, ensuring quality control at each step and providing reliable process monitoring points for large-scale production, making it more suitable for large-scale, standardized production.

[0074] The prepared final product was subjected to XRD testing, and the test results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown, sharp diffraction peaks can be observed, indicating that the prepared final product is a crystal.

[0075] A powdered sample of 10 mg of the final product was dissolved in 25 mL of a mixed solvent of dichloromethane and petroleum ether (4:1 ratio). After slow evaporation for two days, a large amount of transparent crystals precipitated. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the crystals yielded the following results: Figure 9 The crystal structure shown below has single-crystal parameters as shown in the table below:

[0076]

[0077] The characterization results show that the final product is 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene cyclodimer.

[0078] Application and performance characterization: (1) The 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene ring dimer (abbreviated as: benzopyrene OCH3), intermediate 2 (abbreviated as benzopyrene OH) prepared in the examples and commercially available pyrene monomers (pyrene C monomer, pyrene N monomer, pyrene F monomer) were respectively used to prepare the corresponding pyrene coatings on the surface of copper sheets by the following methods. The specific operations are as follows:

[0079] A 10 mm × 10 mm pure copper sheet was polished with sandpaper of different grits until the surface was smooth, then polished, ultrasonically cleaned in ethanol, and dried in a vacuum drying oven.

[0080] The pyrene monomer is placed in an evaporation chamber and evaporated under a vacuum of 3 Pa (temperature of 200 °C). It is then pyrolyzed in a pyrolysis furnace (temperature of 700 °C) and finally deposited on a copper sheet in the coating chamber to form a transparent pyrene coating.

[0081] The prepared samples are shown in the table below:

[0082]

[0083] (2) Electrochemical corrosion resistance tests were conducted on the above-mentioned uncoated bare copper and copper sheets containing different pyrene coatings. The specific procedures are as follows:

[0084] 1. Setting up the testing system

[0085] Dissolve 3.5 g of sodium chloride in 100 ml of deionized water to prepare a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution, which will be used as the electrolyte solution.

[0086] A copper sheet coated with a film was clamped onto a glassy carbon electrode. A silver chloride electrode was selected as the reference electrode, and a stone rod was used as the counter electrode. Electrochemical corrosion tests were conducted using a three-electrode system in an electrochemical workstation.

[0087] 2. Open Circuit Potential (OCP) Test

[0088] The working electrode was immersed in the electrolyte for 7200 s to obtain a stable equilibrium potential E. ocp .

[0089] 3. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) Test

[0090] At equilibrium potential E ocp The test was conducted with a frequency range of 1-100 kHz and a disturbance amplitude of 5 mV.

[0091] EIS tests were performed on bare copper and coated copper sheets respectively, and the results were obtained respectively. Figure 10 , 11 The Bode plot and Nyquist plot.

[0092] 4. Potentiodynamic polarization curve test

[0093] Relative to E ocp The scanning range was -0.30 V to +0.30 V, and the scanning rate was 10 mV / s. Potentiodynamic polarization curves were measured on bare copper and coated copper sheets respectively to obtain... Figure 12 The Tafel curve.

[0094] When evaluating the electrochemical corrosion resistance of materials, since corrosion current density is more important than corrosion potential, the corrosion current density of the materials should be compared first. If the corrosion current density is the same, the corrosion potential should be compared secondly. The lower the corrosion current density and the higher (positive) the corrosion potential, the better the electrochemical corrosion resistance.

[0095] Table 1

[0096]

[0097] As shown in Table 1, the benzopyrene coating formed on the copper sheet surface using 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene ring dimer prepared in the embodiments of the present invention as a monomer exhibits excellent electrochemical corrosion resistance. Not only is the corrosion current density significantly lower than that of bare copper (lower than coatings prepared with existing benzopyrene monomers), but the corrosion potential also does not decrease significantly (significantly higher than coatings prepared with existing benzopyrene monomers). In contrast, the benzopyrene coating formed on the copper sheet using intermediate 2 prepared in the embodiments as a monomer, while having a relatively high corrosion potential, exhibits a lower corrosion current density than the benzopyrene N coating and the benzopyrene OCH3 coating.

[0098] Furthermore, in the low-frequency region of the Bode plot, a larger impedance modulus indicates better corrosion resistance of the metal; in the high-frequency region, a larger absolute value of the phase angle peak value indicates better corrosion resistance of the metal. Figure 10 It can be seen that the impedance modulus of the copper sheet coated with benzopyrene OCH3 is 2250 Ω, which is significantly improved compared with other coatings, indicating that the benzopyrene OCH3 coating has the strongest protective performance. The curve showing the change in negative phase angle indicates that the phase angle of the benzopyrene OCH3 coating is the largest in the high-frequency range, approaching -62°, thus greatly improving the corrosion susceptibility of the copper sheet and enhancing its resistance to electrochemical corrosion.

[0099] Figure 11 The diameter of the Nyquist curve corresponds to the charge transfer resistance, which is determined by... Figure 11It is known that copper sheets coated with benzopyrene OCH3 have a higher charge transfer resistance (significantly better than copper sheets coated with other pyrene coatings), the energy barrier of electrochemical corrosion reaction is increased, and electron gain and loss are suppressed. This is because the dense benzopyrene film provides excellent metal protection properties.

[0100] Therefore, the 4,16-bis(m-methoxyphenyl)-[2,2]-p-xylene ring dimer coating provided by this invention has excellent electrochemical corrosion resistance and has good application prospects in electronic products, medical devices, marine equipment and other fields.

Equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
