Abstract:
The ring-opening copolymerization reaction (ROCOP) of epoxides and epoxy anhydrides plays a crucial role in the preparation of polyesters. An amino-modified metal-organic framework material UiO-66-NH2 was synthesized from hydrothermal reaction of zirconium tetrachloride and 2-aminoterephthalic acid, and then used as main catalyst, with co-catalyst bis(triphenylnorphosphine)ammonium chloride (PPNCl), to form a binary Lewis acid base for catalyzing the ROCOP of epoxidized epoxycyclohexane (CHO) and maleic anhydride (MA). The UiO-66-NH2 was characterized by FTIR and XRD. The effects of main catalyst type, reaction temperature and catalyst dosage on CHO conversion, polymer ester-bond content and catalyst turnover frequency were evaluated by 1HNMR, with the reaction kinetics and universality of monomers discussed. And the recycling performance of UiO-66-NH2 was analyzed by SEM, XRD and ICP-OES. The results showed that the polyester P(MA-CHO) prepared under the conditions of PPNCl (33.2 mg) as co-catalyst, n(UiO-66-NH2)∶n(PPNCl)∶n(MA)∶n(CHO)=1∶1∶100∶100, reaction temperature 80 ℃ and reaction time 1 h exhibited excellent performances, with an ester-bond content of up to 70.0%, a CHO conversion of 78.6%, and a catalyst turnover frequency of 78.6 h–1. The UiO-66-NH2/PPNCl-catalyzed ROCOP of MA and CHO was a first-order kinetic reaction with an apparent activation energy of 66.51 kJ/mol. UiO-66-NH2 could be reused three times with a slight decrease in catalytic activity, with the conversion of CHO reduced from 78.6% to 77.5%. © 2025 Fine Chemicals. All rights reserved.
