This research explores effects of introduction of the rigid phenylene ethynylene (PEy) moiety as a side chain in polyoxetanes. The synthesis of PEy-grafted polyoxetanes was carried out via Huisgen copper (I) catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. These polymers have a flexible main chain (low Tg polyoxetane) and rigid side chains (phenylene ethynylene). Compositions for copolyoxetanes with PEy and alkynyl side chains were determined by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Mole percents PEy, designated P-%, were P-21, P-44, P-69 and P-100. UV-VIS spectra for P-21, P-44, P-69, P-100 at 330 nm showed differentiation based on assignments to intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) interactions between triazole and phenylene ethylene moieties. Interestingly, instead of a monotonic increase, absorption intensity is in the order P-69 ~ P-44 > P-100 > P-21. Low substitution and mainchain flexibility and account for P-21 having the lowest UV-VIS absorption at 330 nm. P-44 and P-69 have similar strong absorptions at 330 nm with overlapping curves. Steric effects culminate in P-100, which has the highest PEy content but a lower absorption at 330 nm than P-69 but higher than P-21. A model for optical absorptions for PEy copolyoxetanes is described that includes the effect of the rigid PEy side chain in decreasing molecular mobility.

Emergence of resistant bacteria encourages us to develop new antibiotics and strategies to compensate for the different mechanisms of resistance they acquire. One of the defense mechanisms of resistant bacteria is the formation of biofilms. Herein we show

Arylation of terminal alkynes (16 varieties) by aryl iodides (28 varieties) was achieved with a mol ppm loading level of palladium catalyst, where a variety of functional groups including heteroarenes were tolerated. Thus, the arylations were carried out in the presence of palladium acetate at ppm loadings and potassium carbonate in ethanol at 80 °C to give the corresponding internal alkynes in good to excellent yields. Synthesis of 2-phenyl-3-(phenylalkynyl)benzofuran was achieved by iterative use of the alkyne arylation under mol ppm catalytic conditions. Reaction-rate analysis, transmission electron microscopic (TEM) examination of the reaction mixture, and mercury-amalgamation test were performed to gain insight into the active species of the highly active ppm catalytic species. TEM examination of the reaction mixture revealed that palladium nanoparticles were generated in situ under the reaction conditions, and their cluster size was variable during the catalytic reaction. A variation in size of palladium particles suggested that the composition-decomposition process of Pd aggregates should take place in situ via monomeric palladium(0) species and/or fine palladium(0) clusters, which might be real catalytic species in this reaction.
