Continuous Additive Manufacturing using Olefin Metathesis.

ABSTRACT: The development of chemistry is reported to implement selective dual-wavelength olefin metathesis polymerization for continuous additive manufacturing (AM). A resin formulation based on dicyclopentadiene is produced using a latent olefin metathesis catalyst, various photosensitizers (PSs) and photobase generators (PBGs) to achieve efficient initiation at one wavelength (e.g., blue light) and fast catalyst decomposition and polymerization deactivation at a second (e.g., UV-light). This process enables 2D stereolithographic (SLA) printing, either using photomasks or patterned, collimated light. Importantly, the same process is readily adapted for 3D continuous AM, with printing rates of 36 mm h^-1 for patterned light and up to 180 mm h^-1 using un-patterned, high intensity light.

Rapid, continuous additive manufacturing by volumetric polymerization inhibition patterning.

Project description:Contemporary, layer-wise additive manufacturing approaches afford sluggish object fabrication rates and often yield parts with ridged surfaces; in contrast, continuous stereolithographic printing overcomes the layer-wise operation of conventional devices, greatly increasing achievable print speeds and generating objects with smooth surfaces. We demonstrate a novel method for rapid and continuous stereolithographic additive manufacturing by using two-color irradiation of (meth)acrylate resin formulations containing complementary photoinitiator and photoinhibitor species. In this approach, photopatterned polymerization inhibition volumes generated by irradiation at one wavelength spatially confine the region photopolymerized by a second concurrent irradiation wavelength. Moreover, the inhibition volumes created using this method enable localized control of the polymerized region thickness to effect single-exposure, topographical patterning.

Enantioselective olefin metathesis with cyclometalated ruthenium complexes.

Project description:The success of enantioselective olefin metathesis relies on the design of enantioenriched alkylidene complexes capable of transferring stereochemical information from the catalyst structure to the reactants. Cyclometalation of the NHC ligand has proven to be a successful strategy to incorporate stereogenic atoms into the catalyst structure. Enantioenriched complexes incorporating this design element catalyze highly Z- and enantioselective asymmetric ring opening/cross metathesis (AROCM) of norbornenes and cyclobutenes, and the difference in ring strain between these two substrates leads to different propagating species in the catalytic cycle. Asymmetric ring closing metathesis (ARCM) of a challenging class of prochiral trienes has also been achieved. The extent of reversibility and effect of reaction setup was also explored. Finally, promising levels of enantioselectivity in an unprecedented Z-selective asymmetric cross metathesis (ACM) of a prochiral 1,4-diene was demonstrated.

Design and Additive Manufacturing of a Continuous Servo Pneumatic Actuator.

Project description:Despite an emerging interest in soft and rigid pneumatic lightweight robots, the pneumatic rotary actuators available to date either are unsuitable for servo pneumatic applications or provide a limited angular range. This study describes the functional principle, design, and manufacturing of a servo pneumatic rotary actuator that is suitable for continuous rotary motion and positioning. It contains nine radially arranged linear bellows actuators with rollers that push forward a cam profile. Proportional valves and a rotary encoder are used to control the bellows pressures in relation to the rotation angle. Introducing freely programmable servo pneumatic commutation increases versatility and allows the number of mechanical components to be reduced in comparison to state-of-the-art designs. The actuator presented is designed to be manufacturable using a combination of standard components, selective laser sintering, elastomer molding with novel multi-part cores and basic tools. Having a diameter of 110 mm and a width of 41 mm, our prototype weighs less than 500 g, produces a torque of 0.53 Nm at 1 bar pressure and a static positioning accuracy of 0.31° with no limit of angular motion. By providing a description of design, basic kinematic equations, manufacturing techniques, and a proof of concept, we enable the reader to envision and explore future applications.

Catalytic olefin metathesis in blood.

Project description:The direct synthesis of drugs in vivo enables drugs to treat diseases without causing side effects in healthy tissues. Transition-metal reactions have been widely explored for uncaging and synthesizing bioactive drugs in biological environments because of their remarkable reactivity. Nonetheless, it is difficult to develop a promising method to achieve in vivo drug synthesis because blood cells and metabolites deactivate transition-metal catalysts. We report that a robust albumin-based artificial metalloenzyme (ArM) with a low loading (1-5 mol%) can promote Ru-based olefin metathesis to synthesize molecular scaffolds and an antitumor drug in blood. The ArM retained its activity after soaking in blood for 24 h and provided the first example of catalytic olefin cross metathesis in blood. Furthermore, the cyclic-Arg-Gly-Asp (cRGD) peptide-functionalized ArM at lower dosages could still efficiently perform in vivo drug synthesis to inhibit the growth of implanted tumors in mice. Such a system can potentially construct therapeutic drugs in vivo for therapies without side effects.

Olefin metathesis for chemical biology.

Project description:Chemical biology relies on effective synthetic chemistry for building molecules to probe and modulate biological function. Olefin metathesis in organic solvents is a valuable addition to this armamentarium, and developments during the previous decade are enabling metathesis in aqueous solvents for the manipulation of biomolecules. Functional group-tolerant ruthenium metathesis catalysts modified with charged moieties or hydrophilic polymers are soluble and active in water, enabling ring-opening metathesis polymerization, cross metathesis, and ring-closing metathesis. Alternatively, conventional hydrophobic ruthenium complexes catalyze a similar array of metathesis reactions in mixtures of water and organic solvents. This strategy has enabled cross metathesis on the surface of a protein. Continuing developments in catalyst design and methodology will popularize the bioorthogonal reactivity of metathesis.

Infinity additive manufacturing of continuous microstructured fiber links for THz communications.

Project description:In this work, a novel infinity 3D printing technique is explored to fabricate continuous few-meter-long low-loss near-zero dispersion suspended-core polypropylene fibers for application in terahertz (THz) communications. Particular attention is paid to process parameter optimization for 3D printing with low-loss polypropylene plastic. Three microstructured THz fibers were 3D printed using the standard and infinity 3D printers, and an in-depth theoretical and experimental comparison between the fibers was carried out. Transmission losses (by power) of 4.79 dB/m, 17.34 dB/m, and 11.13 dB/m are experimentally demonstrated for the three fibers operating at 128 GHz. Signal transmission with bit error rate (BER) far below the forward error correction limit (10-3) for the corresponding three fiber types of lengths of 2 m, 0.75 m, and 1.6 m are observed, and an error-free transmission is realized at the bit rates up to 5.2 Gbps. THz imaging of the fiber near-field is used to visualize modal distributions and study optimal fiber excitation conditions. The ability to shield the fundamental mode from the environment, mechanical robustness, and ease of handling of thus developed effectively single-mode high optical performance fibers make them excellent candidates for upcoming fiber-assisted THz communications. Additionally, novel fused deposition modeling (FDM)-based infinity printing technique allows continuous fabrication of unlimited in length fibers of complex transverse geometries using advanced thermoplastic composites, which, in our opinion, is poised to become a key fabrication technique for advanced terahertz fiber manufacturing.

A bis-calixarene from olefin metathesis.

Project description:A ring-closing olefin metathesis reaction of tetra-kis-(all-yl-oxy)calix[4]arene gave the bis- calixarene, (15E,40E,60E)-65,74-bis-(prop-2-en-1-yl-oxy)-13,18,38,43,58,63-hexa-oxado-deca-cyclo-[28.26.8.7(20,36).1(11,45).1(51,55).0(5,57).0(7,12).0(19,24).0(26,64).0(32,37).0(44,49).1(68,72)]tetra-hepta-conta-1,3,5(57),7,9,11,15,19(24),20,22,26,28,30(64),32,34,36,40,44(49),45,47,51,53,55(65),60,68,70,72(74)-hepta-cosa-ene, C(74)H(68)O(8). It is a cage formed from two calix[4]arene units joined by butenyl groups at three of the O atoms on the narrow rim. The fourth O atom on each calixarene unit is joined with an allyl group. Each of the calix[4]arene units has a flattened cone conformation in which the all-yloxy-substituted aryl group and the opposite aryl group are close together and almost parallel [dihedral angle between planes = 1.09 (11)°], and the other two aryl groups are splayed outward [dihedral angle between planes = 79.53 (11)°]. No guest mol-ecule (e.g. solvent) was observed within the cage. The alkene C atoms of one of the links between the calixarene moieties are disordered over two orientations with occupancies of 0.533 (9) and 0.467 (9).

Thermally Stable, Latent Olefin Metathesis Catalysts.

Project description:Highly thermally stable N-aryl,N-alkyl N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ruthenium catalysts were designed and synthesized for latent olefin metathesis. These catalysts showed excellent latent behavior toward metathesis reactions, whereby the complexes were inactive at ambient temperature and initiated at elevated temperatures, a challenging property to achieve with second generation catalysts. A sterically hindered N-tert-butyl substituent on the NHC ligand of the ruthenium complex was found to induce latent behavior toward cross-metathesis reactions, and exchange of the chloride ligands for iodide ligands was necessary to attain latent behavior during ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). Iodide-based catalysts showed no reactivity toward ROMP of norbornene-derived monomers at 25 °C, and upon heating to 85 °C gave complete conversion of monomer to polymer in less than 2 hours. All of the complexes were very stable to air, moisture, and elevated temperatures up to at least 90 °C, and exhibited a long catalyst lifetime in solution at elevated temperatures.

Catalytic, transannular carbonyl-olefin metathesis reactions.

Project description:Transannular carbonyl-olefin metathesis reactions complement existing procedures for related ring-closing, ring-opening, and intermolecular carbonyl-olefin metathesis. We herein report the development and mechanistic investigation of FeCl3-catalyzed transannular carbonyl-olefin metathesis reactions that proceed via a distinct reaction path compared to previously reported ring-closing and ring-opening protocols. Specifically, carbonyl-ene and carbonyl-olefin metathesis reaction pathways are competing under FeCl3-catalysis to ultimately favor metathesis as the thermodynamic product. Importantly, we show that distinct Lewis acid catalysts are able to distinguish between these pathways to enable the selective formation of either transannular carbonyl-ene or carbonyl-olefin metathesis products. These insights are expected to enable further advances in catalyst design to efficiently differentiate between these two competing reaction paths of carbonyl and olefin functionalities to further expand the synthetic generality of carbonyl-olefin metathesis.
