Copper-mediated ATRP of methyl methacrylate in polar solvents using a bifunctional pyridinal diimine ligand

The bifunctional pyridinal diimine ligand, bis(2‐pyridinal)ethylenediimine, was employed in copper‐mediated ATRP of methylmethacrylate using solvents such as acetonitrile, N,N‐dimethyl formamide and dimethylsulfoxide. Solvent polarity was found to play a crucial role in determining the extent of con...

Zusammenfassung:The bifunctional pyridinal diimine ligand, bis(2‐pyridinal)ethylenediimine, was employed in copper‐mediated ATRP of methylmethacrylate using solvents such as acetonitrile, N,N‐dimethyl formamide and dimethylsulfoxide. Solvent polarity was found to play a crucial role in determining the extent of control in the ATRP process. Acetonitrile showed the best control when used at a level of 33 vol.‐%.
