Reactivity of polyolefins toward cumyloxy radical: Yields and regioselectivity of hydrogen atom transfer
Garrett, Graham E.,Mueller, Elena,Pratt, Derek A.,Parent, J. Scott
, p. 544 - 551 (2014)
Hydrogen atom abstraction from a series of homopolymers by cumyloxy radicals is examined under solvent-free conditions at temperatures that are relevant to radical-mediated polymer modifications. Abstraction efficiency data acquired for the thermolysis of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) within pure polymer samples establish an order of reactivity: poly(butadiene) (PBD) > poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) > poly(ethylene) (PE) > poly(propylene) (PP) > poly(isobutylene) (PIB). The regioselectivity of hydrogen transfer from PE, PP, and PIB is assessed by model hydrocarbon experiments involving nitroxyl trapping of the alkyl radicals generated from pentane, 2,4-dimethylpentane, and 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpentane, respectively. Taken together, abstraction efficiency and regioselectivity data are discussed in terms of enthalpic and entropic contributions to H atom transfer rates, with particular emphasis on steric hindrance imposed by methyl substituents on secondary positions within PP and PIB. The utility of polymer oxidizability as a predictive measure of the reactivity of a polymer toward cumyloxyl and vinyltriethoxysilane graft modification is evaluated and discussed.

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is a powerful method to elucidate molecular structure through the measurement of distances between conformationally well-defined spin labels. Here we report a sequence-flexible approach to the synthesis of double spin-labeled DNA duplexes, where 2′-alkynylnucleosides are incorporated at terminal and internal positions on complementary strands. Post-DNA synthesis copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions with a variety of spin labels enable the use of double electron-electron resonance experiments to measure a number of distances on the duplex, affording a high level of detailed structural information.
