Abstract
Early transition metal-catalyzed hydroaminoalkylation is a powerful single-step method to selectively add amines to polybutadienes, offering an efficient strategy to access amine-functionalized polyolefins. Aryl and alkyl secondary amines were used with a tantalum catalyst to functionalize both 28 wt% (PBD13) and 70 wt% (PBD50) 1,2-polybutadiene polymers. The degree of amination was controlled by modifying amine and catalyst loading in both small- and multigram-scale reactions. The vinyl groups of 1,2-polybutadiene were aminated with ease, and unexpectedly the hydroaminoalkylation of challenging internal alkenes of the 1,4-polybutadiene unit was observed. This unanticipated reactivity was proposed to be due to a directing group effect. This hypothesis was supported with small-molecule model substrates, which also showed directed internal alkene amination. Increasing degrees of amination resulted in materials with dramatically higher and tunable glass transition temperature (Tg) values, due to the dynamic cross-linking accessible to hydrogen-bonding, amine-containing materials. Primary amine-functionalized polybutadiene was also prepared, demonstrating that a broad new class of amine-containing polyolefins can be accessed by postpolymerization hydroaminoalkylation.

Abstract
Functional polyethylenes possess valuable bulk and surface properties, but the limits of current synthetic methods narrow the range of accessible materials and prevent many envisioned applications. Instead, these materials are often used in composite films that are challenging to recycle. We report a Cu-catalyzed amination of polyethylenes to form mono- and bifunctional materials containing a series of polar groups and substituents. Designed catalysts with hydrophobic moieties enable the amination of linear and branched polyethylenes without chain scission or cross-linking, leading to polyethylenes with otherwise inaccessible combinations of functional groups and architectures. The resulting materials possess tunable bulk and surface properties, including toughness, adhesion to metal, paintability, and water solubility, which could unlock applications for functional polyethylenes and reduce the need for complex composites.

Abstract
Metathesis step-growth polymerizations in ionic liquids (ILs) was explored to take advantage of the high boiling points of ILs, thereby permitting the use of low pressures at high temperatures. Optimization reactions found that high polymers form efficiently using small amounts of catalyst and short reaction times. For example, high molecular weight main-chain triptycene polymers with high triptycene incorporation were synthesized. This new methodology is applicable to various metathesis reactions that require removal of volatile byproducts as a driving force, including acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET).

Abstract
The carboxylic acid proton and the lithium coordination environments for precise and random Li-neutralized polyethylene acrylic acid P(E-AA) ionomers were explored using high speed solid-state 1H and 7Li MAS NMR. While the 7Li NMR revealed only a single Li coordination environment, the chemical shift temperature variation was dependent on the precise or random nature of the P(E-AA) ionomer. The 1H MAS NMR revealed two different carboxylic acid proton environments in these materials. By utilizing 1H-7Li rotational echo double resonance (REDOR) MAS NMR experiments, it was demonstrated that the proton environments correspond to different average 1H-7Li distances, with the majority of the protonated carboxylic acids having a close through space contact with the Li. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest that the shortest 1H-7Li distance corresponds to un-neutralized carboxylic acids directly involved in the coordination environment of Li clusters. These solid-state NMR results show that heterogeneous structural motifs need to be included when developing descriptions of these ionomer materials.
