Abstract
Hydrogels with an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) structure composed of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (poly-NIPAM) gel and a gel containing polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains were synthesized. They showed a typical temperature-responsive volume change in water owing to the constructed poly-NIPAM gel component. Oxidative coupling of 2-naphthol with IPN cryogels and a conventional catalyst, the CuCl2 complex of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylenediamine, was conducted in water under an O2 atmosphere; the IPN gel prepared from PEG with a larger molecular weight of 11000 afforded a product with a good yield of 73% (91% conv.) during the reaction in basic media. The hydrogel effectively promoted the reaction but hardly produced any product without the catalyst, acting as a reactor vessel in the water. Owing to the low durability of the PEG gel component for hydrolysis, a limitation was also suggested during experiments on the recyclability of the hydrogel.

- 13 The gels were immersed in water for 24 h at a predetermined temperature and weighed after careful removal of excess surface water. Q was calculated from the following equation by using the mass values of the swollen (m s) and dry-state (m d) samples: Q = (m s − m d)/m d. All experiments were performed in triplicate for each sample.

- 15 Procedure for oxidative coupling of 2-naphthol in water: 2-Naphthol (182 mg, 1.25 mmol), a gel, and TMEDA were added to an aqueous solution of CuCl2 (0.35 M). After gentle stirring of the mixture under an O2 atmosphere (1 atm), the gel was separated and washed three times with CHCl3. The organic layer of the filtrates was further washed with 1 M HCl and brine. The residual gel was immersed in excess THF for two days, and the eluent was combined with the organic layer, which was then dried over MgSO4. Subsequent filtration and concentration afforded the crude products. Purification was accomplished by using silica gel column chromatography, which produced BINOL as the product. After the washed gel was dried, it was again swelled in water and freeze-dried for further reaction cycles.
