1 Maromoleules XXXX, xx, 000 A Clik Chemistry as a Promising Tool for Side-Chain Funtionalization of Polyurethanes David Fournier and Filip Du Prez* Department of Organi Chemistry, Polymer Chemistry Researh Group, Ghent UniVersity, Krijgslaan 281, S4-bis, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium ReeiVed January 26, 2008; ReVised Manusript ReeiVed May 1, 2008 ABSTRACT: Linear polyurethanes (PUs) having alkyne groups loated along the bakbone have been synthesized by reating two different alkyne-funtionalized diols with a diisoyanate ompound. 1 H NMR and FTIR proved the presene of these funtional groups and the ability for the introdution of an elevated and ontrollable amount of funtional groups that do not interfere with the PU hemistry. TGA measurements demonstrated that the inorporated alkyne diol in the PU materials strongly improves the final har yield. In the seond part of the work, the opper atalyzed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar yloaddition was undertaken between the alkyne-funtionalized PUs and a variety of azide ompounds suh as benzyl azide and different fluorinated azide ompounds, resulting in side-hain funtionalized PUs with varying degree of funtionalization. 1 H NMR spetra learly indiated the quantitative yields of the lik reation. Introdution Sine polyurethanes (PUs) have been disovered by Bayer in the 40s, 1 many aademi and industrial researh groups from all over the world have enlarged this field. PUs 2 are mostly, but not only, based on the reation between diisoyanatates, diols and polyols. The wide range of starting ompounds leads to the synthesis of materials with different and unique properties. The targeted appliations are numerous suh as in the field of automobile, mediine, omfort, buildings, paintings, oatings, adhesives and pakaging. 3 Additionally, the hemistry of polyurethanes allows for the synthesis of foams (flexible and rigid) or thermoplasti polymers, depending on their syntheti onditions. Nowadays, thermoplasti PUs have found a growing interest sine the mehanial, thermal and hemial properties an be tailored by the hoie and omposition of the starting ompounds. Atually, muh researh is foused on the degradability and the reyling of suh materials due to their intense prodution. 4 More reently, muh attention is shown for the development of funtional polyurethanes beause it is expeted that they lead to appliations that are outside of the PU market, thus giving rise to additional funtionality to the end materials. To introdue funtionalities within the PU materials, few possibilities an be onsidered. One route to obtain funtional polyurethanes is the use of monofuntional ompounds (alohol or isoyanate), whih lead to polymer hain terminations with the funtional group at the hain end and to a redued moleular weight. The end-hain modifiation of the PU an also be performed after its formation. For instane, hydroxyethyl (meth)arylate has been employed for the modifiation of a NCO-funtionalized polyurethane leading to UV-ross-linkable polyurethane (meth)arylate (PUA). 5,6 The UV-ured PUA oatings reeived onsiderable attention for their resistane to aelerated weathering or exposure to light for instane. 7,8 A similar strategy led to the elaboration of amino-funtionalized PUs starting from the reation between an exess of hexamethylene diisoyanate (HDI) and propylene glyol. 9 The isoyanate funtions in the PU, loated at the end-hains, were suessively hydrolyzed with triphenylsilanol and water. These so-obtained amino-funtionalized PUs may be afterward used for oatings, adhesives, sealants. 9 Surfae modifiation of isoyanate-funtionalized PUs was also reported in order to * Corresponding author. filip.duprez@ugent.be. inorporate different funtional groups suh as sulfonate or amine. 10 Seond, the funtional group an be diretly introdued during the proess (one-pot proedure) by using a funtional building blok. Nevertheless, areful attention should be paid toward the inertness of the introdued funtional groups during the polyurethane proess to avoid seondary reations, making the materials unusable for the desired final appliations. For instane, the introdution of amino groups into PU requires protetion/deprotetion steps. Reently, the preparation of PUs bearing pendant amino groups starting from HDI, poly(ɛaprolatone) (PCL), and a modified poly(ethylene glyol) (PEG) has been desribed. 11 The approah onsists in the reation of dihydroxyl PEG with NH 2 -proteted asparti aid (Asp) leading to a prepolymer PEG-Asp-PEG. Then, the onsequent reation between HDI, PCL and the amino-proteted PEG-Asp-PEG allowed for the formation of PU with a low loading of pendant amino groups after an ultimate deprotetion step. At the same time, Endo et al. 12 prepared PU bearing hydroxyl groups in the side hain (PHUs) by reating a bifuntional yli arbonate with a diamine, after whih the hydroxyl groups were onverted into funtionalized urethane groups with the help of funtionalized isoyanates. In mediine, funtional PUs are widely studied sine it was established that PU shows relatively good in Vitro blood ompatibility in omparison to other polymeri films. 13 For example, Kim et al. 14 synthesized heparin-immobilized polyetherurethanes ontaining pendant ester groups from a NCO-prepolymer and diethyl bis(hydroxymethyl)malonate. The obtained ester-funtionalized PU was then hemially modified to obtain either heparin or PEG-heparin as side groups. Another way that was largely explored onsists of the funtionalization of PUs by hydrogen removal of the urethane group (i.e., NH) of the material using for example, a drasti treatment based on sodium hydride (NaH) In general, the hemial modifiation of suh funtional polymers an also suffer of a ertain lak of effiieny sine the reativity of funtional groups may be affeted by the struture of the polymer and also by the effiieny of the hemial reations used. For the past few years, this effiieny was intensively studied in the area of polymer hemistry sine, in 2001, Sharpless and o-workers 20 introdued innovative approahes, named lik hemistry, allowing quantitative reations. Among the listed reations, Huisgen 1, /ma800189z CCC: $40.75 XXXX Amerian Chemial Soiety Published on Web 06/14/2008

2 B Fournier and Du Prez Maromoleules, Vol. xx, No. x, XXXX dipolar yloadditions between an azide and an alkyne ompound have been widely explored due to, among others, its effiieny, versatility and inertness toward other funtional groups. The use of a opper atalyst leads to a tremendous aeleration of the reation at room temperature. 21,22 Sine the first report of lik hemistry in polymer hemistry by Hawker, Sharpless and o-workers, 23 the onstrution of welldefined and omplex maromoleular arhitetures Via lik hemistry has been a strongly growing field of researh Relating to the PU field, Qin et al. 28 very reently reported the elaboration of polyurethanes using the ombination of 2,4- toluene diisoyanate (TDI) and hromophore-funtionalized diols. Nevertheless, the authors first synthesized these diols by the 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne yloaddition prior to their inorporation in the PU. These polymers were studied as organi seond-order nonlinear materials for their further appliation in the field of high-speed eletro-opti devies. The aim of the present work was to develop an effiient way for the elaboration of alkyne-ontaining PUs by the introdution of alkyne diols during the PU proess. Beause of the resistane of the alkyne group toward the usual reation onditions and funtional groups during the PU synthesis, it was foreseen that an universal lass of funtionalized PU materials ould be prepared. The ultimate step is the funtionalization of the PUs Via lik hemistry with the help of funtional azide ompounds, leading to a wide range of properties starting from the same ompounds. To ahieve this goal, two different alkyneontaining diols have first been synthesized. Then, alkynefuntionalized linear PUs with ontrollable alkyne loadings and variable moleular weight have been prepared. Finally, the postmodifiation has been done using the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar yloadditions with several azide ompounds in order to obtain new PU materials with properties that are direted Via the azide ompound.

Triethylamine (HPLC grade, Aldrih), tetrahydrofuran (THF, HPLC grade, Aldrih) and ethyl aetate (EtOA, HPLC grade, Aldrih) were distilled prior to use. Instrumentation. 1 H NMR spetra were reorded at 25 C, with a Bruker Avane 300 spetrometer. Thermogravimetri analysis (TGA) was performed with a Mettler Toledo TGA/SDTA851e instrument under air atmosphere at a heating rate of 20 C/min between 25 and 800 C. Infrared spetra were obtained with ReatIR 4000 instrument (Mettler Toledo AutoChem ReatIR TM ) using a silione probe (SiComp, optial range ) m -1 ). Moleular masses and moleular mass distributions were measured using gel permeation hromatography (GPC) using N,N-dimethylaetamide (DMA) as solvent and LiBr (0.42 g/l) with a flow rate fixed at 1 ml/min and a temperature of 50 C (with poly(methyl metharylate) standards). Synthesis of N-2-(Azidoethyl)phthalimide (PHT-N 3 ). N-2- (Bromoethyl)phthalimide (10 g, mmol) in a mixture of DMF/ water (120 ml, 9/1 v/v) was harged in a round-bottom flask. Then, 1.5 equivalent of sodium azide (59 mmol, 3.84 g) was introdued and the reation mixture was allowed to stir at 60 C for 1 day. The mixture was then ooled to room temperature and a minimum of 5 extrations against ether was done. The ombined ether layers were dried with magnesium sulfate and the solvent removed in vauum, yielding a yellowish powder that was further dried under vauum overnight (yield ) 95.0%). 1 H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl 3 ): δ ) 3.57 ppm (t, 2H, CH 2 -CH 2 -N 3 ), 3.87 ppm (t, 2H, CH 2 -CH 2 -N 3 ), 7.71 ppm (dd, 2H, Ar-H), 7.84 ppm (dd, 2H, Ar-H). FTIR (ATR): ν(ν 3 ) ) 2111 m -1, ν(cdo) ) 1710 m -1. Synthesis of Zonyl-N 3. Zonyl-N 3 was synthesized in two steps from hydroxyl hain terminated fluorinated surfatant Zonyl-FSO- 100 (M w 725 g/mol, with (CF 2 ) n, n 8 and (CH 2 CH 2 O) x, x 8 from 19 F and 1 H NMR analysis). 33,34 In a 250 ml round-bottom flask, Zonyl (20 g, 1 equiv) was dissolved in freshly distilled THF (100 ml). Then, freshly distilled triethylamine (4.22 ml, 1.1 equiv) was added and the temperature fixed at 0 C. Methane sulfonyl hloride was introdued dropwise (3.65 g, 1.15 equiv). After the addition, the reation mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature overnight. Triethylamine salt was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated under vauum. This intermediate ompound was not further purified and in a seond step, it was dissolved in ethanol (100 ml) ontaining sodium azide (2.69 g, 1.5 equiv). The reation was stirred overnight at reflux. Then, solvent was removed and both ether and water were added to the mixture allowing extrations. The ombined organi layers were dried with magnesium sulfate and the solvent removed in vauum, yielding a brown liquid (yield ) 85%). 1 H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl 3 ): δ ) 2.41 ppm (m, CF 2 -CH 2 -), 3.39 ppm (t, CH 2 -N 3 ), ppm (m, O-CH 2 -CH 2 -O). FTIR (ATR): ν(ν 3 ) ) 2100 m -1. Typial Synthesis of Linear Alkyne-Containing Polyurethane. In a round-bottom flask were introdued 1 equiv of HDI, 1 equiv of a diol (or a predetermined mixture of two diols), and freshly distilled EtOA. The mixture was degassed by bubbling nitrogen for 15 min and heated at 50 C in a preheated oil bath. Then, dibutyltin dilaureate (approximately µl) was added, and the reation was allowed to stir under inert atmosphere for 2 h. During its formation, the PU slowly preipitates in the medium, and the obtained polymer was then filtered off and extensively washed with EtOA and aetone to remove all unreated ompounds. The synthesized material was dried under vauum overnight prior to further haraterizations suh as GPC or NMR. Typial Huisgen 1,3-Dipolar Cyloaddition onto Linear Polyurethane. In a round-bottom flask, the alkyne-funtionalized PU (1 equiv of alkyne funtions) was harged with the azide ompound (2 equiv), the solvent (DMSO or DMF) and the opper atalyst based on either CuBr/PMDETA (0.1 equivalent eah aording to the alkyne ontent) or CuSO 4,5H 2 O/Na as. (0.05 and 0.1 equiv, respetively). The reation was performed overnight under nitrogen atmosphere at 50 C. The resulting modified material was preipitated in diethyl ether and dried under vauum overnight prior to further haraterizations. Deprotetion of Phthalimide-Funtionalized PU. In a roundbottom flask, the phthalimide-funtionalized PU (1 eq.) was dissolved in DMF. A solution of hydrazine monohydrate in DMF was slowly added to the reation mixture. Then, the temperature was fixed at 70 C for 4 h. The reation mixture was ooled down to room temperature and the PU was preipitated into diethyl ether. The polymer was filtered off and dried under vauum prior to haraterizations. Results and Disussion Synthesis of Alkyne-Funtionalized Polyurethanes. Sine their disovery, the funtionalization of PU materials has been a hallenge in order to elaborate new highly interesting materials that are finding their appliations in various fields. In this study, linear alkyne-funtionalized PUs have been synthesized and haraterized by onventional haraterization tehniques, after whih they are modified Via lik hemistry. The desribed strategy onsists in inorporating alkyne funtions in the PU by the introdution of alkyne-funtionalized diols in the feed

Diols Involved during the PU Proess and Azide Compounds Used for the Copper-Catalyzed Huisgen 1,3-Dipolar Cyloaddition Table 1. Synthesis of Linear PUs Starting from HDI and the Building Blok PBM entry referene a omposition (mol %) b PBM/BDO/HDI of the polyondensation. For this purpose, one monoalkyne diol, 3,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1-propargyloxybenzene (PBM) and a dialkyne diol, 2,2-di(prop-2-ynyl)propane-1,3-diol (DPPD), were synthesized aording to the literature 30,32 (Chart 1). First, the monoalkyne diol (PBM) was mixed with hexamethylene diisoyanate (HDI) in ethyl aetate. Aording to the desired PBM loading, a predetermined amount of butane-1,4- diol (BDO) is added to the mixture. Then, the temperature was fixed at 50 C and one drop of tin atalyst was added. As a result of the use of ethyl aetate as solvent, the PU polymer is preipitating during its formation after few minutes, leading to maromoleules having a low moleular weight, whih failitates the haraterization by 1 H NMR. Table 1 summarizes the results of the synthesized PUs with varying amounts of PBM (50, 25, and 8 mol %, entries 1-3, Table 1) and also a blank PU (0 mol % of PBM) synthesized from HDI and BDO (entry 4, Table 1). Figure 1 shows a typial 1 H NMR spetrum obtained from PU-PBM-25. The typial resonane of the alkyne proton appears at 3.55 ppm proving that the funtionalized diol has been inorporated in the polymer without any side reation. Moreover, the peak at ppm orresponds to hydrogens linked to the nitrogen atoms from the urethane groups. It learly indiates that all expeted peaks are present, either from the BDO, the PBM, or the diisoyanate. Moreover, by taking into aount the integration of peaks at 4.75 ppm (2H, -CH 2 from PBM), 3.9 ppm (4H, -O-CH 2 from BDO) and 2.9 ppm (4H, -NH-CH 2 from HDI), the molar ratio between BDO and PBM ould be determined. The elaborated PUs were also haraterized by FT-IR spetrosopy to further prove the inorporation of the funtionalized alkyne diol in the materials. In Figure 2, the IR spetra display the overlay of the starting alkyne diol PBM and the synthesized PU-PBM-25.

Heating ramp: 20 C/min under air from 25 to 800 C. The spetrum orresponding to the PU-PBM-25 (upper spetrum, Figure 2) shows typial bands, on one hand at 1737 m -1 orresponding to the arbonyl funtion from the urethane groups and, on the other hand at 2220 m -1 (CtC) and 3290 m -1 (CtC-H) relating to the terminal alkyne funtions present in the material. The thermal stability of the synthesized funtionalized PU was studied by thermogravimetri analysis (TGA) measurements. As shown in Figure 3 (top), all synthesized PUs are stable up to 300 C. The initial deomposition temperature, defined as 5% weight loss (data in Table 1), are similar, showing that the inorporation of PBM in the material does not affet the thermal behavior at the early stage of the thermal deomposition proess. However, it an be observed from the overlay that for a higher PBM ontent in the PU, the overall final har yield is inreasing up to 25%. Thus, PBM may at at the same time as a stabilizer agent as already reported elsewhere. Indeed, alkyne groups are known to at as a ross-linker upon heating by reation of retiulated alkenes and an partiipate in a reation of ylotrimerization making the materials flame-retardant. 35,36 This is asribed to the formation of har on the upper part of the material, whih prevents the formation of volatile ompounds from the inner part. In addition, terminal alkynes have also been used to elaborate high-performane polymers and omposites. 37 When final har yields were plotted against the amount of inorporated PBM (Figure 3, bottom), a linear relationship was surprisingly observed, meaning that a struture-property relationship may exist that an justify the above-mentioned explanation about the thermal stability of alkyne-funtionalized materials. Moreover, the stability of the materials has been studied after heating them at 200 C for 30 min. 1 H NMR measurements (data not shown) after this degradation study showed no hange meaning that the PUs are stable in these onditions and espeially that the alkyne funtions are still available for further reations. The same strategy has been employed to inorporate in the PU a diol bearing two alkyne funtions per repeating unit (Sheme 1). The reativity of DPPD was examined by elaborating a soluble PU starting from DPPD and HDI (entry 1, Table 2) as shown in Sheme 1. Then, BDO was introdued in the feed of the polyondensation to obtain a PU with 15 mol% of DPPD (entries 2 and 3, Table 2). Figure 4 shows the overlay of the starting diol DPPD and the PU-DPPD-15. The IR spetrum of DPPD (upper spetrum) indiates the presene of the alkyne funtion due to the low intense band at 2120 m -1 (CtC) and the shoulder at approximately 3270 m -1 (CtC-H) next to the intense OH strething. Additionally, the spetrum orresponding to the PU-DPPD-15 shows the appearane of three intense bands at 1700 m -1 from amide I

(CdO strething vibrations) of the urethane, at 1540 m -1 from the amide II (C-N strething vibrations) and at 1258 m -1 belonging to the amide III (C-N deformation). The thermal stability of suh materials was also examined by TGA. It reveals that all synthesized PU-DPPD are stable up to 250 C or higher. In ontrast to the previous series (PU-PBM), at the early stage of the degradation proess ( C), the inorporation of DPPD makes the material more sensitive to the heating as observed in Figure 5. Nevertheless, as observed in the ase of PBM-funtionalized PUs, the inorporation of the dialkyne diol DPPD leads to high har-yielding materials. The most notable differene between both series (PU-PBM and PU-DPPD) is the deomposition temperature at about 300 C for the series PU-PBM and at 250 C for the series PU-DPPD. This an be asribed to the presene of an aromati ompound (PBM), whih affords more rigidity to the whole struture ompared to the aliphati ompound DPPD. The thermal behavior of the alkyne-ontaining PUs is promising sine it shows that the yields of flammable and volatile omponents from the thermal degradation of the Figure 3.

PUs are low and may satisfy the requirements for ating as flame retardants. Clik Reations onto Alkyne-Funtionalized Linear PUs. The postmodifiation of PU side-hains, allowing to tune the properties of the resulting polymers, has been a great hallenge due to quite low onversions that are mainly aused by the steri hindrane or the nature of the reation involved. Therefore, the quantitative opper(i) atalyzed azide-alkyne yloadditions appears to be a promising approah to ahieve

The lik reations were arried out either in DMSO at 50 C or in DMF at 60 C in ombination with ommon opper atalyst systems suh as Cu I Br/PMDETA or CuSO 4 /Na as.. These solvents were used in order to maintain the PU solubility, while the opper atalysts were hosen as a funtion of their effiieny toward the lik reation. In this study, several azide ompounds (Chart 1) were used in a 2-fold exess suh as benzyl azide (BzN 3 ), N-(azidoethyl)phthalimide (PHT-N 3 ), trideafluoro-8-azidootane (TDFO-N 3 ) or Zonyl-N 3. The results of the oupling reations between PBM-based PUs and the organi azide ompounds are reported in Table 3. A first sreening was performed with PU-PBM-50 in different reation onditions. First, the reation of BzN 3, whih an be onsidered as a model ompound, was undertaken and the preipitated PU was then analyzed by 1 H NMR in DMSOd 6. Figure 6 shows the overlay of the 1 H NMR spetra of the starting material PU-PBM-50 (lower spetrum, Figure 6) and the final material obtained after the dipolar yloaddition with benzylazide (PU-PBM-50-Bz) (upper spetrum, Figure 6). The arrow in Figure 6 learly indiates the shift of the alkyne proton at 3.5 ppm (5, lower spetrum) to 8.2 ppm (5, upper spetrum), whih orresponds to the proton linked to the formed triazole ring. Also, news peaks appear at 5.5 ppm (6,CH 2 from BzN 3 ) and at ppm (7, aromati protons from BzN 3 ), proving the suess of the reation. The omplete disappearane of the alkyne proton at 3.5 ppm (Figure 6, lower spetrum) reveals that the reation was quantitative. The same onlusions ould be drawn from the reation between BzN 3 and PU-PBM- 25. Also, N-(azidoethyl)phthalimide (PHT-N 3 ) was allowed to reat with PBM-based PUs using CuSO 4 /Na as. as opper atalyst in DMF at 60 C. As shown in Table 3, the lik reations with PU-PBM-50 and PU-PBM-25 ourred in a quantitative way sine no peak from the starting alkyne proton ould be deteted in the final material by 1 H NMR. Phthalimide-based ompounds are often used as an amineproteting group and a simple deprotetion step Via hydrazine treatment is performed 41 (Sheme 3). For instane, O Shea et al. 42 prepared bromo-terminated polystyrene (PS-Br) by ATRP, whih was then treated with potassium phthalimide followed by the hydrazinolysis in order to obtain aminoterminated polystyrene (PS-NH 2 ). In the present ase, it an be a very promising way to obtain PUs funtionalized with reative primary amino groups. PU-PBM-25 was reated with a solution of hydrazine in DMF at 70 C. The 1 H NMR spetra are shown in Figure 7.

As a onsequene, the methylene protons at 4.65 ppm and 4.05 ppm (2 and 1 respetively, lower spetrum, Figure 7) were shifted to 4.45 ppm and 3.9 ppm respetively (2 and 1 respetively, upper spetrum, Figure 7). Thus, ethylamino-funtionalized PU was obtained Via the strategy in whih the first step involves the lik reation of an amino preursor onto the PU and the seond step is a deprotetion step. A diret anhoring of an amine to the PU Via the yloaddition proess ould also be onsidered with the help of 1-azidoethylamine. Nevertheless, this azido ompound is explosive and therefore diffiult to obtain beause of the low C/N ratio 20 (i.e., 2/4). In priniple, another safer azide ontaining the amino ompound ould be synthesized and used in the yloaddition reation to obtain aminofuntionalized PUs in one step. Last attempts of the series of PU-PBM were undertaken with fluorinated azide ompounds in order to enlarge the onept of funtionalized PUs by grafting hydrophobi pendant hains along the bakbone of the PUs. TDFO-N 3, whih was synthesized from the iodide derivative, was allowed to reat with both PU-PBM-50 and PU-PBM-25 using opper sulfate and sodium asorbate (Table 3). In both ases, the 1 H NMR revealed the appearane of the triazole proton. Integrations of this speifi peak and the others from the PU bakbone fit well, proving again the quantitative harater of the lik reations. Thus, the high hydrophobiity of the fluorinated ompound did not affet the dipolar yloaddition.

GPC traes of the starting material PU-PBM-50 and PU-PBM-50-Zonyl. Finally, also another azide ompound was used, namely Zonyl-N 3. This ompound was synthesized from ommerially available hydroxy-funtionalized Zonyl FSO-100, whih is a low moleular weight blok opolymer having a first blok based on a perfluoroalkyl hain followed by a seond poly(ethylene glyol) blok (Chart 1). Zonyl FSO-100 is urrently widely used in appliations suh as improved wetting agent, lubriant, antifogging and pigment ompatibilizer in inks. 43 In the present work, Zonyl-N 3 was reated with PU-PBM-50. As mentioned in Table 3, the resulting PU was only partially soluble in the NMR solvent, making the measurement not suitable. Nevertheless, the hange of solubility may be an indiret proof of the grafting proess by lik hemistry. On the other hand, Figure 8 represents the overlay of the GPC traes of PU-PBM-50 and the resulting PU with their maromoleular harateristis suh as number average and peak moleular weight and polydispersity index (PDI). A shift of the maromoleular speies toward lower retention time is learly shown. Also, the peak moleular weight is largely inreasing proving that the fluorinated ompound has been grafted to the PU bakbone Via the alkyne funtions. It an also be notied from Table 3 that after the lik reation all the funtionalized PUs have a higher numberaverage moleular mass than the starting PU-PBM-50 and PU-PBM-25, showing the suess of the grafting reation.

This an be attributed to the hange of hydrodynami volume of the obtained maromoleules, whih have quite hydrophobi side-hains. To further prove the onept of funtionalized polyurethanes, lik reations were also performed with the other series of materials, i.e. PU-DPPD, having two alkyne funtions per DPPD unit. Their reativity toward BzN 3 and PHT-N 3 were studied using CuBr/PMDETA as atalyst system. Table 4 summarizes the results obtained during the lik reations with PU-DPPD-50 and PU-DPPD-15. The lik reation between BzN 3 and PU-DPPD was exeuted with the experimental onditions desribed in Table 4. The reation with BzN 3 led to quantitative yields with both PU-DPPD-50 and PU-DPPD-15 and an inrease of the moleular weight was observed in both ases by GPC. These materials PU-DPPD were also allowed to reat with PHT-N 3. As mentioned in Table 4, quantitative yields were observed by 1 H NMR in DMSO-d 6 leading to materials bearing phthalimide groups on the side-hains of the polyurethanes. In Figure 9, the overlay of 1 H NMR spetrum orresponding to starting PU-DPPD-15 and PU-DPPD-15-PHT is represented.

8 H Fournier and Du Prez Maromoleules, Vol. xx, No. x, XXXX Figure 9. 1 H NMR spetra (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) of the starting polymer PU-DPPD-15 (lower spetrum) and PU-DPPD-15-PHT (upper spetrum). New peaks appear at and 4.6 ppm (6 and 4, upper spetrum) orresponding, respetively, to the grafted phthalimide group onto the PU and to the methylene protons lose to the triazole ring. Seond, a peak also appears at 7.9 ppm (3, upper spetrum) proving the formation of the triazole ring. Moreover, the protons orresponding to the two CH 2 groups at ppm near the terminal alkyne funtions (2, lower spetrum) have been ompletely shifted to 2.4 ppm (upper spetrum) proving the suess of the lik reation. Finally, the measured integrations fit very well when taking into aount the molar omposition of the PU. Relating to the TGA measurements (Table 4), it appears that the final har yields of all liked PUs are again quite higher than the starting material. Additionally, the yloaddition reation between TDFO-N 3 and PU-DPPD-15 was undertaken (Table 4) in order to synthesize highly hydrophobi materials. It was observed that the material PU-DPPD-15-TDFO was insoluble in DMSO, making the 1 H NMR analysis not feasible. Nevertheless, from TGA measurements, a high har yield was obtained (i.e., 17.2%, Table 4), whih may indiate the presene of fluorinated grafted side-hain along the PU bakbone. Conlusions PUs bearing alkyne funtions as pendant groups have been synthesized by inorporating an alkyne diol (PBM and DPPD) during their elaboration. This resulted in PUs with a variable amount of likable funtions. Moreover, it has been proved by TGA measurements that suh PUs have a high thermal stability and that the final har yield is proportional to the alkyne ontent in the material. In a seond step of the researh, the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar yloaddition was employed by reating these alkyne funtionalized materials with several azide ompounds in the presene of a opper atalyst. After the suess of the lik reation with BzN 3, amine and fluorinated ompounds have been attahed to the PUs. In almost all ases, a quantitative yield was obtained as observed by 1 H NMR, leading to PUs with new funtionalities in the side-hain of the bakbone. We are urrently studying the use of PU based on polyols, the kinetis of the lik hemistry reation and the surfae properties of the orresponding PU oatings. This onept of universal funtionalized PU is believed to afford new lasses of PU materials with easily adaptable physial properties by making use of readily aessible azide ompounds. Aknowledgment.
