Directing Group-Integrated Poly(phenylene sulfide): Achieving Chemical Stability and Controlled Degradability

Plastic sustainability necessitates catalytic technologies for disassembling polymers into monomers or their precursors. We report herein directing group-integrated poly(phenylene sulfide)s, which can be converted into monomer precursors via nickel-catalyzed site-selective C–S bond cleavage. These polymers exhibit excellent chemical and thermal stability. The crystallinity of the polymers is tunable by the design of the directing group.

Abstract

Plastic sustainability necessitates catalytic technologies for disassembling polymers into monomers or their precursors. We report herein directing group-integrated poly(phenylene sulfide)s, which can be converted into monomer precursors via nickel-catalyzed site-selective C–S bond cleavage. These polymers exhibit excellent chemical and thermal stability. The crystallinity of the polymers is tunable by the design of the directing group.
