Controlled Synthesis of Single-chain Nanoparticles Under Various Atom Transfer Radical Coupling Conditions Courtney M. Leo, Ashley Hanlon, Elizabeth Bright, Claudia S. Willis, and Erik B. Berda. Department of Chemistry, University of New Hampshire. Introduction Characterization of SCNP Discussion Atom-transfer radical coupling (ATRC) is a promising synthetic route to single-chain nanoparticles (SCNP) and other specialized macromolecules; however, limitations in our current understanding of the key design parameters and ideal reaction conditions remain a barrier to the widespread implementation of this technique. To address these concerns, we have systematically examined the formation of SCNP by ATRC, varying the chemistry of the cross-linkable unit, length of the parent polymer, and ligand for the copper catalyst. An increase in retention time is expected for a nanoparticle because smaller objects take a more torturous path through the GPC chamber. Therefore, the shift in longer retention times of the two desired SCNP, compared to the parent polymer, confirms that the collapses were successful. The nanoparticle collapsed using a TPMA ligand has a small shoulder peak, which is most likely the nanoparticle trace, while the taller, more prominent peak is remaining ligand. Both of the copolymers, MeBrema and PhBrema, were synthesized successfully and tracked by H1 NMR. The integration of peaks D and C were used to calculate the percent incorporation of MMA to MeBrema and PhBrema. H1 NMR also shows the two significant peak shifts in protons A and E. During the ATRC process, radicals are formed at the bromine-terminated site in order for crosslinking to occur. This change in environment will then affect where those two proton peaks are observed. When comparing the parent copolymer spectrum to the SCNP spectrum, it is clear that these two peaks, now labeled A’ and E’ have shifted up-field. The GPC trace also confirms the polymer collapse as both SCNP traces have longer retention times indicating they took a more torturous path through the column. The left shoulder on the TPMA peak is the target compound while the large peak is likely due to excess ligand. Polymer ---- Nanoparticle Summary and Future Work Figure 1. Illustration of SCNP formation using ATRC through pendant monomer units. Illustration The MeBrema and PhBrema target monomers, polymers, and Single-chain nanoparticles, were all synthesized successfully. The proton NMR and GPC data confirm the polymer formation and collapse into SCNP. A few of the remaining single-chain nanoparticles in the series have been synthesized but corresponding data must still be collected and analyzed. Other combinations of ligand, solvent, polymer length, and copolymer percent incorporation could be used to further identify the key design parameters and reaction conditions for the ATRC synthetic route to SCNP. Figure 2: Effect on retention time of collapsing a MeBrema polymer with two different ligands via ATRC. Experimental Design Scheme 1. Copolymerization of MeBrema or PhBrema with Methyl Methacrylate followed by ATRC nanoparticle formation. The characteristic peaks for the parent copolymer, MeBrema, is observed in the H1 NMR spectrum. As the polymer is collapsed into a nanoparticle, two shift changes occur as the bromine is removed to open a crosslinking site. The ATRC reaction changes the environment of protons, A and E, causing them to shift up-field where you can see the new A’ and E’ peaks grow in the SCNP spectra. d’ e’ b’ c’ a’ c’ Acknowledgements d’ b’ Table 1&2.
