One aspect of the present invention relates to a method for the transition metal (e.g., Cu(I)) mediated amidation of C—H bonds using electron-rich aliphatic azides. In certain embodiments, the methods are useful for the C—H insertion of nitrenes generated and stabilized by a β-diketiminato metal catalyst. In certain embodiments, said nitrenes are generated from organoazides, or by oxidation of the corresponding amine. Another aspect of the present invention relates to olefin aziridination using said β-diketiminato metal catalysts. In addition, the methods of the present invention include stereoselective C—H bond aminations and olefin aziridinatons. In certain embodiments, the methods are conducted in an aerobic environment. In certain embodiments, the present invention relates to the use of O2 as an oxidant, wherein water is the byproduct of oxidation; this fact avoids the generation of toxic byproducts and renders the methods atom economical.

The present invention relates to surface modifying agents for polymeric and / or textile materials, methods of making and / or using a surface modifying agent to modify and functionalize polymeric and / or textile materials, and / or methods of using surface modified or functionalized polymeric and textile materials, and / or products using or incorporating surface modified or functionalized polymeric and textile materials. For example, the surface modifying agent in precursor form can be styrene sulfonyl azide monomer, polymer or copolymer capable of undergoing a chemical reaction in the presence of heat or light to form one or more styrene sulfonated nitrene monomers, polymers or copolymers, which are capable of chemically reacting with the surface of a polymeric or textile material to endow a specific or desired chemical surface functionality to the surface of a polymeric or textile material. Furthermore, the present invention is possibly preferably directed to a surface modifying agent which comprises a styrene sulfonated nitrene monomer, polymer or polymer containing one or more nitrene functional groups, which are capable of chemically reacting via an insertion reaction into one or more carbon-hydrogen bonds on the surface of a polymeric or textile material in order to chemically attach a specific or desired chemical functionality to the surface of a polymeric or textile material.

The present invention relates to new, improved or modified polymer materials, membranes, substrates, and the like and to new, improved or modified methods for permanently modifying the physical and / or chemical nature of surfaces of the polymer substrate for a variety of end uses or applications. For example, one improved method uses a carbene and / or nitrene modifier to chemically modify a functionalized polymer to form a chemical species which can chemically react with the surface of a polymer substrate and alter its chemical reactivity. Such method may involve an insertion mechanism to modify the polymer substrate to increase or decrease its surface energy, polarity, hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity, oleophilicity or oleophobicity, and / or the like in order to improve the compatibility of the polymer substrate with, for example, coatings, materials, adjoining layers, and / or the like. Furthermore, this invention can be used to produce chemically modified membranes, fibers, hollow fibers, textiles, and the like, for example, to produce polyolefin microporous battery separators or membranes having improved hydrophilicity or wettability, having crosslinking in the polyolefin which can improve the high temperature stability, and / or the like.

The invention discloses an adsorbing material for azide method coupling gelatin and a preparation method of the adsorbing material. The preparation method comprises the following steps: grafting an unsaturated monomer containing carboxyl on the surface of a macromolecular non-woven base material to introduce the carboxyl by employing an ultraviolet induction technology; introducing aromatic amino by employing electrostatic self-assembly of aromatic diamine diazonium salt and the carboxyl, and transforming into an azide group; decomposing into active nitrene under ultraviolet irradiation, fixing gelatin on a non-woven surface through inserting reaction of nitrene; and finally soaking in hot water, and removing uncoupled gelatin to prepare the absorbing material. The adsorbing material is relatively good in hydrophilia; the carrier content and the water absorption rate of the gelatin can be adjusted within a large range; and the adsorbing material has relatively high adsorption capacity on tannin, has a selective absorption effect on adsorption of the tannin in green tea and emblic leafflower fruit extracts, and also has the selective absorption effect on condensed tannin in the green tea extract.

The present invention relates to a process for the functionalization of a rubber polymer comprising reacting the rubber polymer with at least one source of nitrene or carbene, in the presence of a catalyst of formula TpxAg, wherein Tpx represents a hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate ligand. This process leads to selective rubber functionalization without secondary reactions such as chain scission or cross linking and produces functionalized rubbers with improved compatibilization properties. The invention also refers to the polymer produced therefrom and to uses of said polymer.
