摘要: Abstract A difunctional initiator was synthesized through the addition reaction of tert-butyllithium (t-BuLi) to 1,3-diisopropenylbenzene (DIB) in presence triethylamine (Et3N). Under optimized conditions, that is dropwise a mixture DIB and Et3N stirred toluene solution t-BuLi at 50 °C molar ratio DIB/Et3N/t-BuLi=1/2/2, formed without oligomeriazation DIB. Copolymerization butyl acrylate (n-BuA) methyl methacrylate (MMA) with bis(2,6-di-tert-butylphenoxy)ethylaluminum [EtAl(ODBP)2] low temperature proceeded monomer-selective manner; n-BuA polymerized first, followed by MMA polymerization, form an ABA-type triblock copolymer [PMMA-block-poly(n-BuA)-block-PMMA], which exhibits microphase separation.
