Synthesis of Polyethers Containing Triazole Units in the Backbone by Click Chemistry in a Tricomponent Reaction

الملخص EN

A series of linear aromatic polyethers containing triazole units were synthesized via the direct click reaction of dibromide and bisethynyl compounds in the presence of sodium azide as one pot reaction.

The structures of polymers were approved by using IR and 1H NMR techniques.

The solubility experiments showed that polymers have good solubility in polar aprotic solvents such as DMSO, DMF, and NMP at higher temperatures.

Thermal stability of the polymers was measured using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) which indicated that they possessed good thermal stability (T50 up to 558°C) and high Tg (191.7–260°C) under N2 atmosphere.

All the polymers were amorphous according to the DSC and X-ray diffraction.

These polymers exhibited strong UV-vis absorption maxima near to 400 nm and up to 500 nm in DMSO solution.
