1 Introduction

Aromatic polyamides (aramides) explore high thermal sta-bility good chemical resistance excellent mechanical prop-erties and a series of reliable properties that have broadapplications in many areas of research and engineering [1ndash4] However all of these polymers have the main problem ofbeing difficult to process and of fabrication because of theirinfusibility and poor solubility in common organic solventsThe reasons are strong interchain forces and interactionsinherent macromolecular rigidity or crystallinity

There has been an increased attention in the preparationof polyamides with different substituents or structural irreg-ularities to improve their process ability without loweringtheir other desired properties These studies include enteringflexible adducts into the polymer main chain [5ndash7] replacingsymmetrical aromatic rings by unsymmetrical ones [8ndash10]introducing bulky and reliable pendent groups to minimizecrystallization [11ndash15] and forming a noncoplanar and non-symmetrical structure [16ndash18]

Since the first published reports on the use of microwaveirradiation to improve chemical transformations by Gedyeet al in 1986 [19] a large number of research papers have

been published in this active field referred to as microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) [20 21] Microwaveheating compared to conventional heating procedures indi-cated that it could reduce reaction times increase productyields and enhance product purities by reducing byproductsThe advantages of this efficient technology have also beenexplored in the context of multistep total synthesis [22]medicinal chemistry and drug discovery [23] Also thesemethods were used in a series of fields such as polymersynthesis [24] material sciences [25] nanotechnology [26]and biochemical processes [27] The use of microwaveirradiation in polymer chemistry has thus become such apopular technique that a series of chemists will probably usemicrowave energy to heat chemical reactions on a laboratoryscale to prepare a large number of polymers [28]This efficientmethod of organic synthesis has been used in a large numberof polymer reactions such as step-growth polymerization forthe preparation and synthesis of polyamides [29] polyimides[30] poly(amide-imide)s [31] polyesters [32] polyurea andpolythiourea [33] Also chain growth polymerization undermicrowave (MW) irradiation has been applied for the syn-thesis of a large number of polymers and macromolecules[34]

3 Results and Discussion

In this research work we wish to report the synthesisand characterization of polyamides which were obtainedfrom the reaction of a new monomer (5 PDA) contain-ing 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine sub-unit and aromatic diamines under microwave irradiationDichloroamide (3) was readily prepared by using a publishedmethod with some modifications from the reaction of 1 andchloroacetyl chloride [35] Diacidmonomer (5) was preparedby the reaction of 3 and thiosalicylic acid (4) in DMF atroom temperature The IR spectrum of diacid (5 PDA) ispresented in Figure 1 The polymerizations were carried outvia Yamasaki phosphorylation reaction by the reaction ofdiacid (5) and different diamines in the presence of triph-enyl phosphite (TPP) pyridine (Py) N-methylpyrrolidinone(NMP) and calcium chloride (CaCl

2) under microwave

irradiation almost in quantitative yields (Table 1) Polymerswere precipitated in boiling methanol and washed with hotwater and methanol respectively The inherent viscositiesand the yields of polyamides were revealed in Table 1 Theviscosities of polyamides were measured in DMSO at 30∘Cand are in the range of 063ndash088 (Table 1) The structures ofpolymers were fully characterized by their 1H NMR and IRspectra (Table 2) The IR spectrum of polyamide 13 (PPS)appears in Figure 2 and shows good agreement betweenabsorptions and the corresponding structure (Table 2)

The thermal stability of polyamides was studied bythermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanningcalorimetry (DSC) methods in a wide range of temperatureThe entire polymers showed good thermal stability theresults appear in Table 3 and curves are displayed in Figure 3Glass transition temperature (119879

119892)measurementswere carried

out by use of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)and were in the range of 223ndash295∘C The results appear inTable 3 According to the effects of diamine structure onthe thermal behaviour the insertion of a sulfone group intothe diamine structure decreases the overall flexibility of thepolymer chains and increased the 119879

119892value The polymers

containing diamines with no flexible groups (such as 14-and 13-phenylenediamine and 26-pyridinediamine deriva-tives) have high 119879

119892 possibly due to a less flexible polymer

backboneThe thermal stability was measured by thermogravi-

metric analysis (TGA) and shown that polymers are wellthermally stable their decomposition at argon atmospherefor temperature of 10 weight loss 119879 (10) was in the range of137ndash173∘C and the temperature of 50weight loss119879 (50) was

4 Conclusion

In summary we have synthesized and characterized a newset of polyamides based on the pyridine and thiosalicylicacid subunits They were successfully obtained throughthe direct polycondensation reaction of 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine with various diamines viaYamazaki method under microwave irradiation (MW) Thesolubility and thermal stability polymers are high This maybe due to the presence of pyridine and methylene groups inthe presence of the tetrahedral sulfide functional group Thepresence of sulfone group in the diamine subunit increased

3 Results and Discussion

In this research work we wish to report the synthesisand characterization of polyamides which were obtainedfrom the reaction of a new monomer (5 PDA) contain-ing 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine sub-unit and aromatic diamines under microwave irradiationDichloroamide (3) was readily prepared by using a publishedmethod with some modifications from the reaction of 1 andchloroacetyl chloride [35] Diacidmonomer (5) was preparedby the reaction of 3 and thiosalicylic acid (4) in DMF atroom temperature The IR spectrum of diacid (5 PDA) ispresented in Figure 1 The polymerizations were carried outvia Yamasaki phosphorylation reaction by the reaction ofdiacid (5) and different diamines in the presence of triph-enyl phosphite (TPP) pyridine (Py) N-methylpyrrolidinone(NMP) and calcium chloride (CaCl

2) under microwave

irradiation almost in quantitative yields (Table 1) Polymerswere precipitated in boiling methanol and washed with hotwater and methanol respectively The inherent viscositiesand the yields of polyamides were revealed in Table 1 Theviscosities of polyamides were measured in DMSO at 30∘Cand are in the range of 063ndash088 (Table 1) The structures ofpolymers were fully characterized by their 1H NMR and IRspectra (Table 2) The IR spectrum of polyamide 13 (PPS)appears in Figure 2 and shows good agreement betweenabsorptions and the corresponding structure (Table 2)

The thermal stability of polyamides was studied bythermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanningcalorimetry (DSC) methods in a wide range of temperatureThe entire polymers showed good thermal stability theresults appear in Table 3 and curves are displayed in Figure 3Glass transition temperature (119879

119892)measurementswere carried

out by use of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)and were in the range of 223ndash295∘C The results appear inTable 3 According to the effects of diamine structure onthe thermal behaviour the insertion of a sulfone group intothe diamine structure decreases the overall flexibility of thepolymer chains and increased the 119879

119892value The polymers

containing diamines with no flexible groups (such as 14-and 13-phenylenediamine and 26-pyridinediamine deriva-tives) have high 119879

119892 possibly due to a less flexible polymer

backboneThe thermal stability was measured by thermogravi-

metric analysis (TGA) and shown that polymers are wellthermally stable their decomposition at argon atmospherefor temperature of 10 weight loss 119879 (10) was in the range of137ndash173∘C and the temperature of 50weight loss119879 (50) was

then increase the crystallinity and close packing On theother hand sulfone units in the aromatic diamines reducethe flexibility and increased close packing and crystallinityAccording to the above discussion therefore the solubilityof polyamides was affected by the several variables andsignificantly the structural variations in diacid monomer (4)and aromatic diamine components can be considered

The surface morphology of polymers has been studiedby scanning electron microscopy using their SEM images

4 Conclusion

In summary we have synthesized and characterized a newset of polyamides based on the pyridine and thiosalicylicacid subunits They were successfully obtained throughthe direct polycondensation reaction of 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine with various diamines viaYamazaki method under microwave irradiation (MW) Thesolubility and thermal stability polymers are high This maybe due to the presence of pyridine and methylene groups inthe presence of the tetrahedral sulfide functional group Thepresence of sulfone group in the diamine subunit increased

3 Results and Discussion

In this research work we wish to report the synthesisand characterization of polyamides which were obtainedfrom the reaction of a new monomer (5 PDA) contain-ing 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine sub-unit and aromatic diamines under microwave irradiationDichloroamide (3) was readily prepared by using a publishedmethod with some modifications from the reaction of 1 andchloroacetyl chloride [35] Diacidmonomer (5) was preparedby the reaction of 3 and thiosalicylic acid (4) in DMF atroom temperature The IR spectrum of diacid (5 PDA) ispresented in Figure 1 The polymerizations were carried outvia Yamasaki phosphorylation reaction by the reaction ofdiacid (5) and different diamines in the presence of triph-enyl phosphite (TPP) pyridine (Py) N-methylpyrrolidinone(NMP) and calcium chloride (CaCl

2) under microwave

irradiation almost in quantitative yields (Table 1) Polymerswere precipitated in boiling methanol and washed with hotwater and methanol respectively The inherent viscositiesand the yields of polyamides were revealed in Table 1 Theviscosities of polyamides were measured in DMSO at 30∘Cand are in the range of 063ndash088 (Table 1) The structures ofpolymers were fully characterized by their 1H NMR and IRspectra (Table 2) The IR spectrum of polyamide 13 (PPS)appears in Figure 2 and shows good agreement betweenabsorptions and the corresponding structure (Table 2)

The thermal stability of polyamides was studied bythermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanningcalorimetry (DSC) methods in a wide range of temperatureThe entire polymers showed good thermal stability theresults appear in Table 3 and curves are displayed in Figure 3Glass transition temperature (119879

119892)measurementswere carried

out by use of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)and were in the range of 223ndash295∘C The results appear inTable 3 According to the effects of diamine structure onthe thermal behaviour the insertion of a sulfone group intothe diamine structure decreases the overall flexibility of thepolymer chains and increased the 119879

119892value The polymers

containing diamines with no flexible groups (such as 14-and 13-phenylenediamine and 26-pyridinediamine deriva-tives) have high 119879

119892 possibly due to a less flexible polymer

backboneThe thermal stability was measured by thermogravi-

metric analysis (TGA) and shown that polymers are wellthermally stable their decomposition at argon atmospherefor temperature of 10 weight loss 119879 (10) was in the range of137ndash173∘C and the temperature of 50weight loss119879 (50) was

then increase the crystallinity and close packing On theother hand sulfone units in the aromatic diamines reducethe flexibility and increased close packing and crystallinityAccording to the above discussion therefore the solubilityof polyamides was affected by the several variables andsignificantly the structural variations in diacid monomer (4)and aromatic diamine components can be considered

The surface morphology of polymers has been studiedby scanning electron microscopy using their SEM images

4 Conclusion

In summary we have synthesized and characterized a newset of polyamides based on the pyridine and thiosalicylicacid subunits They were successfully obtained throughthe direct polycondensation reaction of 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine with various diamines viaYamazaki method under microwave irradiation (MW) Thesolubility and thermal stability polymers are high This maybe due to the presence of pyridine and methylene groups inthe presence of the tetrahedral sulfide functional group Thepresence of sulfone group in the diamine subunit increased

3 Results and Discussion

In this research work we wish to report the synthesisand characterization of polyamides which were obtainedfrom the reaction of a new monomer (5 PDA) contain-ing 26-bis(2-thio-2-(4-phenylcarboxy)-1-oxo)pyridine sub-unit and aromatic diamines under microwave irradiationDichloroamide (3) was readily prepared by using a publishedmethod with some modifications from the reaction of 1 andchloroacetyl chloride [35] Diacidmonomer (5) was preparedby the reaction of 3 and thiosalicylic acid (4) in DMF atroom temperature The IR spectrum of diacid (5 PDA) ispresented in Figure 1 The polymerizations were carried outvia Yamasaki phosphorylation reaction by the reaction ofdiacid (5) and different diamines in the presence of triph-enyl phosphite (TPP) pyridine (Py) N-methylpyrrolidinone(NMP) and calcium chloride (CaCl

2) under microwave

irradiation almost in quantitative yields (Table 1) Polymerswere precipitated in boiling methanol and washed with hotwater and methanol respectively The inherent viscositiesand the yields of polyamides were revealed in Table 1 Theviscosities of polyamides were measured in DMSO at 30∘Cand are in the range of 063ndash088 (Table 1) The structures ofpolymers were fully characterized by their 1H NMR and IRspectra (Table 2) The IR spectrum of polyamide 13 (PPS)appears in Figure 2 and shows good agreement betweenabsorptions and the corresponding structure (Table 2)

The thermal stability of polyamides was studied bythermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanningcalorimetry (DSC) methods in a wide range of temperatureThe entire polymers showed good thermal stability theresults appear in Table 3 and curves are displayed in Figure 3Glass transition temperature (119879

119892)measurementswere carried

out by use of a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)and were in the range of 223ndash295∘C The results appear inTable 3 According to the effects of diamine structure onthe thermal behaviour the insertion of a sulfone group intothe diamine structure decreases the overall flexibility of thepolymer chains and increased the 119879

119892value The polymers

containing diamines with no flexible groups (such as 14-and 13-phenylenediamine and 26-pyridinediamine deriva-tives) have high 119879

119892 possibly due to a less flexible polymer

backboneThe thermal stability was measured by thermogravi-

metric analysis (TGA) and shown that polymers are wellthermally stable their decomposition at argon atmospherefor temperature of 10 weight loss 119879 (10) was in the range of137ndash173∘C and the temperature of 50weight loss119879 (50) was
