Graphical Abstract

Thumbnail image of graphical abstract

The acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization of a phosphorus-containing α,ω-diene prepared with a plant oil derived building block is reported. Different ruthenium based metathesis catalysts and conditions were tested to optimize the ADMET polymerization of this new monomer. Undecylenyl undecenoate was used as comonomer to obtain polyesters with different phosphorus contents and to increase the renewable part of the final polymers.

Abstract

The acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization of a phosphorus-containing α,ω-diene prepared from a plant oil derived building block is reported. Different ruthenium based metathesis catalysts and conditions were tested to optimize the ADMET polymerization of this monomer. Undecylenyl undecenoate was used as fully renewable comonomer to obtain polyesters with different phosphorus contents and to increase the renewable content of the final polymers. Copolymerization caused marked variations in the molecular weights leading to polyesters from 6 to 38 KDa. The effect of the ADMET polymerization temperature in the thermal properties of the copolymers was studied and their thermal degradation and flame retardant properties were evaluated. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
