This research was focused on the study of the polymer dormant radical systems, species containing free radical structures that have longer lifetimes and greater stability than radicals in general. In order to understand the nature and reactivity of the dormant radicals, polymeric systems capable of producing dormant free radicals were synthesised. In addition, the use of these novel polymeric materials in a range of applications were studied. Those applications exploited the nature of the dormant radical groups and included controlled modifications in the polymeric structure, heterogeneous catalysis and chromatographic separations.

Ditiocarbamatos (DTC) tem uma vasta gama de aplicação. Na indústria são usados como ativos para vulcanização da borracha; lubrificantes e anticorrosivos para trabalhos em alta pressão. Na medicina são estudados como potenciais inibidores do fator nuclear kappa β (NF-KB) e da protease do HIV-1; além da aplicação como indutores da apoptose em vários tipos de células carcinogênicas e como agentes antimicrobianos e antifúngicos. Derivados cíclicos de ditiocarbamatos são capazes de formar extensos arranjos no estado sólido mantidos por ligações de hidrogênio, interações do tipo π - π, interações metal - π e interações de van der Waals. No presente trabalho, determinou-se a natureza dessas interações em ditiocarbamatos derivados da própria amina substituinte e de metais alcalinos. Foram calculados mapas de potencial eletrostático molecular e momentos dipolo, a fim de entender quais fatores regem o empacotamento cristalino. Os átomos de enxofre nessas moléculas apresentam ligações mono ou bidentadas e ligações hidrogênio intramoleculares, que formam arranjos poliméricos. Essas interações são fracas, com distâncias da ordem da soma de seus raios de van der Waals, semelhante ao grafite. / Dithiocarbamates (DTC) are applied in several areas such as agricultural products, pesticides and repellents; industry, as additives for vulcanization of rubber; organic synthesis as precursors; chelating agents; lubricants and antiwear at high pressure. In medical fields, they have also been applied as a potential nuclear factor kappa B (NF - κB) inhinitor; transcription factor heat shock factor 1 (HSF1); HIV-1 protease inhibitor; co-adjuvant agent in the treatment of opportunistic infections in AIDS patients; inducer of apoptosis activity in several types of cancer cells, e.g. renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer; besides being great antimicrobicial and antifungal agents. Cyclic dithiocarbamate derivates are capable of forming extended hydrogen bonded arrays in the solid state. They are kept in the solid state by hydrogen bonds, π - π interactions stacking, π - metal interactions and van der Waals interactions. This work presents eight ditihiocarbamates derivates, their syntheses and recrystallization. The analysis of the dithiocarbamates salts was performed by X-ray diffraction which has gave the influence of the ligand in the crystalline arrangement, and molecular electrostatic potential maps, by DFT calculations. The sulphur atoms in these molecules have mono or bidentate bonds and intramolecular hydrogen bonds, forming polymeric arrangements. These interactions are weak, with distances of the order of the sum of their van der Waals radii, similar to graphite.

M.Sc. / The increasing number of individuals living with the HIV virus and the extensive use of antimicrobial medicines has resulted in an increase in opportunistic infections such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, fungal, and viral diseases. In addiction, the drugs currently in use have short comings such as limited efficacy, cell membrane penetration and side effects. The increasing number of opportunistic infections such as systemic fungal infections and the development of resistance to commonly used drugs have prompted the search for answers by producing new and novel ones. Dithiocarbamates (DTCs) have been a subject of major research in the past decade and a number of these compounds have been prepared. Dithiocarbamates are versatile 1,1-dithiolato ligands with broad pharmacological properties. Coordinating these ligands with metals such as copper and nickel may produce compounds with enhanced biological properties and this can be a basis for novel compounds. On the other hand, triphenylphosphine (PPh3) is a good binding ligand for transition metals. Further functionalization of the DTC metal complexes with triphenylphosphine should produce compounds with potential pharmaceutical applications. In this study, several bioactive starting compounds such as indole, imidazole, cyclopentylamine and cyclohexylamine were used to synthesize DTC ligands and their metal complexes of Ni, Co, Cu and Zn. The ligands were obtained in good yields of 55-87% with the complexes in yields of 35-66%. Triphenylphosphine adducts of the DTC metal complexes were also prepared and the yields obtained were between 35-71%. All the prepared complexes and ligands were characterized by Infrared, UV-Vis spectroscopy and NMR (1H, 13C and 31P) spectroscopy.
