  • fully renewable non isocyanate polyurethanes via the Lossen Rearrangement
    Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2021
    Co-Authors: Luca Filippi, Michael A R Meier
    Abstract:

    In this work, a straightforward and efficient synthesis approach to renewable non‐isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) is described. For this purpose, suitable and renewable carbamate monomers, possessing two double bonds, are synthesized from hydroxamic fatty acid derivatives via the Lossen Rearrangement in a one‐step synthesis, and sustainable dithiols are synthesized from dialkenes derived from renewable feedstock (i.e., limonene and 1,4‐cyclohexadiene). Subsequently, the comonomers are polymerized with the highly efficient thiol–ene reaction to produce NIPUs with M$_{n}$ values up to 26 kg mol$^{−1}$ bearing thioether linkages. The main side product of the Lossen Rearrangement, a symmetric urea, can also be polymerized in the same fashion. Important in the view of sustainability, the monomer mixture can also be used directly, without separation. The obtained polymers are characterized by NMR, attenuated total reflection‐infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and size exclusion chromatography.

  • olefin cross metathesis as a valuable tool for the preparation of renewable polyesters and polyamides from unsaturated fatty acid esters and carbamates
    Green Chemistry, 2014
    Co-Authors: Matthias Winkler, Michael A R Meier
    Abstract:

    Olefin cross-metathesis of unsaturated fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) derived benzyl carbamates with methyl acrylate is described. The obtained by-product, an α,β-unsaturated ester, was further modified via thia-Michael addition reactions in order to synthesize branched AA-type or AB-type monomers for the preparation of polyesters, which are tuneable by oxidation. Cross-metathesis of fatty acid derived carbamates was used as a novel approach to prepare linear AB-type monomers, which can be used for the preparation of renewable polyamides PA11, PA12 and PA15. The necessary fatty acid carbamates were prepared by applying a catalytic Lossen Rearrangement procedure. The presented synthesis strategy has potential for the bio-sourced preparation of monomers for the production of polyamides. All prepared polymers were fully characterized by NMR, SEC, and DSC analyses. Additionally, the Young's modulus of the prepared long-chain polyamide PA15 was determined.

  • renewable non isocyanate based thermoplastic polyurethanes via polycondensation of dimethyl carbamate monomers with diols
    Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2013
    Co-Authors: Maike Unverferth, Oliver Kreye, Alexander Prohammer, Michael A R Meier
    Abstract:

    1,5,7-Triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD)-catalyzed polycondensation reactions of fatty acid derived dimethyl dicarbamates and diols are introduced as a versatile, non-isocyanate route to renewable polyurethanes. The key step for the synthesis of dimethyl carbamate monomers from plant-oil-derived dicarboxylic acids is based on a sustainable base-catalyzed Lossen Rearrangement. The formed polyurethanes with molecular weights up to 25 kDa are characterized by SEC, DSC, and NMR analysis.

  • introducing catalytic Lossen Rearrangements sustainable access to carbamates and amines
    ChemInform, 2013
    Co-Authors: Oliver Kreye, Sarah Wald, Michael A R Meier
    Abstract:

    A novel, highly efficient and environmentally benign procedure of the Lossen Rearrangement is developed.

  • introducing catalytic Lossen Rearrangements sustainable access to carbamates and amines
    Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis, 2013
    Co-Authors: Oliver Kreye, Sarah Wald, Michael A R Meier
    Abstract:

    A new, highly efficient and environmentally benign catalytic variant of the Lossen Rearrangement is described. Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as green activation reagent of hydroxamic acids in presence of catalytic amounts of tertiary amine bases {1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene (TBD), 1,8-biazabicyclo 5.4.0 undec-7-ene (DBU), 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO), and triethylamine} and small quantities of methanol initiate the Rearrangement. Methyl carbamates were obtained in good to moderate yields when aliphatic hydroxamic acids were employed in this catalytic Lossen Rearrangement; under the same conditions aromatic hydroxamic acids yielded anilines. Notably, the mixture of DMC/methanol was recycled several times without observing decreased yields, thus minimizing the produced waste. Moreover, several other organic carbonates were successfully employed in the introduced catalytic Lossen Rearrangement procedure.
