General description

For a synthetic protocol using NMP initiators, contributed by Prof. Karen Wooley, please visit our technology spotlight.

Application

TEMPO (2,2,6,6-Tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) was used for trapping the styrenyl radical generated from benzoyl peroxide during nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization of styrene. TEMPO-mediated oxidation was employed for the carboxylation of water-resistant nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) films.
Stable nitroxide radical useful in controlling living polymerizations

Concepts and Tools for RAFT Polymerization

We present an article about RAFT, or Reversible Addition/Fragmentation Chain Transfer, which is a form of living radical polymerization.

Polymerizing via ATRP

Polymerization via ATRP procedures demonstrated by Prof. Dave Haddleton's research group at the University of Warwick.

Typical Procedures for Polymerizing via RAFT

We presents an article featuring procedures that describe polymerization of methyl methacrylate and vinyl acetate homopolymers and a block copolymer as performed by researchers at CSIRO.

TEMPO催化氧化

TEMPO（2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶氧基或2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶1-氧基）及其衍生物在有机氧化反应催化剂中可以作为稳定的硝酰基使用。TEMPO由Lebedev和Kazarnovskii于1960年发现，其具有的稳定自由基性质得益于其庞大的取代基团阻碍了自由基与其他分子之间发生反应。

Homogeneous Cu/TEMPO catalyst systems (TEMPO = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl) have emerged as some of the most versatile and practical catalysts for aerobic alcohol oxidation. Recently, we disclosed a (bpy)Cu(I)/TEMPO/NMI catalyst system (NMI = N-methylimidazole) that exhibits fast rates and high selectivities, even
