Insight into the synthesis of N-methylated polypeptides
The ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of N-carboxy anhydrides (NCAs) is mostly divided into two classes: NCAs of α-substituted amino acids and N-methylated NCAs of α-unsubstituted glycine derivatives (NNCAs). The use of both monomer types offers different mechanistic features and results in a multitude of functional materials. To combine these properties, the synthesis and ROP of α-substituted and N-methylated NCAs (αNNCAs) of several amino acids were investigated. The current study provides insight into the influence of polymerization conditions and the limitations caused by the enhanced steric demand of the amino acid NCA monomers and their N-methylated derivatives. Namely, the effects of…
