Discrete Giant Polymeric Chains Based on Nanosized Monomers

Abstract: As size-amplified analogues of canonical macromolecules, polymeric chains built up by “giant” monomers represent an experimental realization of the “beads-on-a-string” model at larger length scales, which could provide insights into fundamental principles of polymer science. In this work, we modularly constructed discrete giant polymeric chains using nanosized building blocks (polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, POSS) as basic repeat units through an efficient and robust iterative exponential growth approach… Show more

“…With these isomeric CPOSS monomers, discrete CPOSS chains with precisely defined regio-configuration ( para -, meta -, and ortho -CPOSS n , labeled as p -, m -, o -C n ; Scheme b) were modularly prepared (Schemes S3 and S4; Figure S6). Like the monomer, 1 H NMR and MALDI-ToF MS for all three isomeric homochains are essentially identical since they have the same chemical compositions (Figures S7 and S8). Nevertheless, the distinct regio-regularity shows a profound influence on chain conformation, as revealed by clear and consistent shifts in SEC traces among these isomers (Figure S9).…”

“…Utilizing isomeric POSS monomers, discrete giant polymeric chains with corresponding regioregularity can be modularly prepared via the iterative exponential growth approach as reported in our earlier study (Scheme ). , By selectively installing two substituents at specific vertexes, the cubic symmetry of the T 8 -POSS cage ( O h ) can be reduced to C 2 v ( ortho - and meta -) and D 3 d ( para -) (Scheme S1, Figures S1 and S2). , In this study, a pair of mutually orthogonal functional groups, i .…”
