Harry R. Allcock Department of Chemistry, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802 Inorganic polymer chemistry is an area of research that links the classical fields of ceramics, metals, and organic polymers, and provides opportunities for the synthesis of new substances that combine the properties of all three. Polyphosphazenes are inorganic macromolecules that illustrate the possibilities available for a wide range of other inorganic systems. In this article, it will be demonstrated that, depending on the synthesis method and molecular structure, it is possible to bias the properties toward those of ceramics, metals, or organic high polymers, and also to develop polymers of biomedical interest.

Polyphosphazenes comprise some of the most i n t e n s i v e l y s t u d i e d i n o r g a n i c macromolecules. They i n c l u d e one o f the o l d e s t known s y n t h e t i c polymers and many of the newest. In m o l e c u l a r s t r u c t u r a l v e r s a t i l i t y , they s u r p a s s a l l o t h e r i n o r g a n i c polymer systems ( w i t h over 300 d i f f e r e n t s p e c i e s now known), and t h e i r uses and d e v e l o p i n g a p p l i c a t i o n s a r e as broad as in many a r e a s o f o r g a n i c polymer chemistry. Moreover, the m o l e c u l a r s t r u c t u r a l , s y n t h e t i c , and p r o p e r t y nuances o f t h e s e polymers i l l u s t r a t e many of the a t t r i b u t e s , problems, and p e c u l i a r i t i e s o f o t h e r i n o r g a n i c m a c r o m o l e c u l a r systems. Thus, t h e y p r o v i d e a "case s t u d y " f o r an u n d e r s t a n d i n g o f what may l i e ahead f o r o t h e r systems now b e i n g probed at the exploratory l e v e l . I n s h o r t , an u n d e r s t a n d i n g of polyphosphazene c h e m i s t r y forms the b a s i s f o r an a p p r e c i a t i o n of a wide v a r i e t y o f r e l a t e d , i n o r g a n i c - b a s e d macromolecular systems and o f the r e l a t i o n s h i p between i n o r g a n i c polymer c h e m i s t r y and the r e l a t e d f i e l d s o f o r g a n i c polymers, c e r a m i c s c i e n c e , and m e t a l s .

Three approaches have been developed f o r the s y n t h e s i s of p o l y phosphazenes.

The c u r r e n t surge in p o l y phosphazene r e s e a r c h is m a i n l y a r e s u l t of the development in the mid I 9 6 0 s (2-4) of a s u b s t i t u t i v e r o u t e to the s y n t h e s i s of organo phosphazene h i g h polymers.

The s u b s t i t u t i v e method of s y n t h e s i s is i l l u s t r a t e d in Scheme I .

The c y c l i c t r i m e r ( I ) , o b t a i n e d from phosphorus p e n t a c h l o r i d e and ammonium c h l o r i d e , is a v a i l a b l e c o m m e r c i a l l y and is now used on a l a r g e s c a l e in the p o l y m e r i z a t i o n r e a c t i o n . U n c r o s s l i n k e d poly(dichlorophosphazene) ( I I ) is a h i g h l y r e a c t i v e m a c r o m o l e c u l a r intermediate. The c h l o r i n e atoms can be r e p l a c e d by a wide v a r i e t y of o r g a n i c or o r g a n o m e t a l l i c s i d e g r o u p s . Replacement of the c h l o r i n e atoms c o n v e r t s the h y d r o l y t i c a l l y - s e n s i t i v e i n t e r m e d i a t e t o one of many w a t e r - s t a b l e p o l y m e r i c d e r i v a t i v e s , u s u a l l y w i t h o u t c l e a v a g e of the backbone bonds.

The i m p o r t a n t consequence of t h i s r e a c t i o n pathway is t h a t m o l e c u l a r d i v e r s i t y can be a c h i e v e d by m a c r o m o l e c u l a r s u b s t i t u t i o n r a t h e r than by the more c o n v e n t i o n a l method of p o l y m e r i z a t i o n or c o p o l y m e r i z a t i o n of d i f f e r e n t monomers. I t a l l o w s polymers w i t h d i f f e r e n t s i d e groups or c o m b i n a t i o n s of s i d e groups to be p r e p a r e d w i t h an i d e n t i c a l backbone and m o l e c u l a r weight d i s t r i b u t i o n . Thus, d i r e c t comparisons can be made of the e f f e c t s of d i f f e r e n t s i d e groups on p h y s i c a l properties.
