We demonstrated that d. functional theory calculations provide a reliable and quant. prediction of the trends in C-S bond dissociation energies using several model compounds as photoinitiator. On the basis of this information, we designed a possible photofunctional initiator for the polymerization of hydrophilic vinyl monomers. Photopolymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was carried out in ethanol initiated by 2-(diethyldithiocarbamoyl)isobutyric acid under UV irradiation We obtained first-order time-conversion plots in this polymerization system, and the straight line in the semilogarithmic coordinates indicated first order in monomer. The mol. weight of the prepared poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) increased with increasing conversion. The mol. weight distribution (Mw/Mn) of the PHEMA was about 1.5. Me methacrylate could also be polymerized in a living fashion with such a PHEMA precursor as a macroinitiator because PHEMA exhibited a dithiocarbamate group at its terminal end. This system could be applied to the architecture of amphiphilic block copolymers. It was concluded that these polymerization systems proceeded with a controlled radical mechanism.
