Synthesis of polymeric 1-iminopyridinium ylides as photoreactive polymers
2010
Two synthetic routes to polymeric 1-imino pyridinium ylides as new photoreactive polymeric architectures were investigated. In the first approach, polymerization of newly synthesized 1-imino pyridinium ylide containing monomers yielding their polymeric analogues was achieved by free radical polymerization. Alternatively, reactive precursor polymers were synthesized and converted into the respective 1-imino pyridinium ylide polymers by polymer analogous reactions on reactive precursor polymers. Quantitative conversion of the reactive groups was achieved with pentafluorophenyl ester containing polymers and newly synthesized photoreactive amines as well as by the reaction of poly(4-vinylbenzoy…
Cyclodextrins in polymer synthesis: Free radical polymerization of cyclodextrin complexes withN-methacryloyl-11-aminoundecanoic acid orN-methacryloyl…
1998
The hydrophobic monomers N-methacryloyl-11 -aminoundecanoic acid (1) or N-methacryloyl-1-aminononane (2) were incorporated as guests into the cavity of heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin (Me 2 -β-CD) as a host, yielding the water compatible monomers N-methacryloyl-l 11-aminoundecanoic acid/ Me 2 -β-CD-complex (1a) and N-methacryloyl-1 -aminononane/Me 2 -β-Cl complex (2a). These complexes were polymerized radically in aqueous medium. The resulting polymers 1b and 2b which were obtained from the complexes 1a and 2a, are insoluble in water because of the unthreading of the cyclodextrin during the polymerization. The polymerization rate of 1a and 2a is high in comparison to the rate of th…
Cyclodextrins in polymer synthesis: free radical polymerisation of cyclodextrin complexes of cyclohexyl and phenyl methacrylate in aqueous medium
1998
The polymerisation mechanism of 2,6-dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me2-β-CD) complexes of phenyl methacrylate (1) and cyclohexyl methacrylate (2) is described. The polymerisation of the complexes 1 a and 2a was carried out in water with potassium peroxodisulfate/potassium hydrogensulfite as initiator. The unthreading of the Me2-β-CD during the polymerisation led to water-insoluble poly(phenyl methacrylate) (1b) and poly(cyclohexyl methacrylate) (2b). By comparison, analogously prepared polymers from uncomplexed monomers 1 and 2 in homogeneous organic solvent (THF) with AIBN as radical initiator showed significantly lower viscosities and were obtained in lower yields in both cases.
Cyclodextrins in polymer synthesis: Free radical polymerization of methylated β-cyclodextrin complexes of methyl methacrylate and styrene, controlled…
2000
Methylated β-cyclodextrin (me-β-CD) was used to complex the hydrophobic monomers methyl methacrylate (1) or styrene (2) yielding the water-soluble 1 : 1-host/guest complexes methyl methacrylate/me-β-CD (1 a) and styrene/me-β-CD (2 a), respectively. In addition, the hydrophobic chain-transfer agent dodecanethiol (3) was complexed by two equivalents of me-β-CD yielding the water-soluble dodecanethiol/me-β-CD (3 a). The included monomers were polymerized in water by a free-radical mechanism in the presence of 3 a as the chain-transfer agent. The chain-transfer constants were determined. In order to evaluate these results, the chain-transfer constants of 3 were also determined in the case of th…
Cyclodextrins in Polymer Synthesis: Synthesis and Influence of Methylatedβ-Cyclodextrin on the Radical Polymerization Behavior of 1,1-Disubstituted 2…
2001
The chemical and enzymatic hydrolyses of 1,1-diethoxycarbonyl-2-vinylcyclopropane (1) were investigated. The product of the pig liver esterase (PLE)-catalyzed hydrolysis of 1 is a chiral trans monoester of 2-vinylcyclopropane dicarboxylic acid. New 1,1-disubstituted 2-vinylcyclopropane monomers (2a, b) were synthesized by the esterification of this ester. Methylated β-cyclodextrin was used to complex monomers 2a, b, yielding water-soluble 1 : 1 host/guest complexes. These complexes were polymerized in aqueous media by a free-radical ring-opening mechanism.
New Perspectives of HPMA-based Copolymers Derived by Post-Polymerization Modification
2014
Poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide] (HPMA) was one of the first polymers applied as polymer drug conjugate in the clinics. Since then many attempts have been made to expand the functionality of HPMA-based copolymers from advanced synthetic pathways to multiple biomedical applications. This Feature Article highlights multifunctional HPMA based copolymers prepared by controlled radical polymerization and subsequent post-polymerization modification of activated ester precursor polymers via aminolysis. This approach combines precise control of the polymer's microstructure (molecular weight, dispersity, block copolymer formation, end group functionalization) with an easy introduction of var…
Reactions of Maleisomides with Alcohols
2004
Abstract New surfactants (surfmers) with various amide and ester groups next to C˭C double bonds have been obtained. Maleic acid amidesters (AE) with different hydrophobic groups at the nitrogen atom and hydrophilic substituents at oxygen atoms were synthesized starting with maleic isoimides. 1H KMR and IR spectra were used for their characterization. Some were further characterized for their critical micellar concentration (CMC). A few cationic and zwitterionic surfmers were also prepared from isoimide precursors and characterized. All these surfmers were applied in batch emulsion polymerization of styrene, and in core‐shell seeded copolymerization of styrene and butylacrylate to give late…
Double-Hydrophilic Linear-Hyperbranched Block Copolymers Based on Poly(ethylene oxide) and Poly(glycerol)
2008
A convenient 4-step (2-pot) approach for the synthesis of biocompatible, double hydrophilic linear-hyperbranched block copolymers based on poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(glycerol) (PG) is described. The polymers consisting exclusively of an aliphatic polyether structure were prepared from linear PEO-b-(l-PG) precursor block copolymers, obtained via anionic polymerization of ethylene oxide and subsequently ethoxyethyl glycidyl ether (EEGE). In order to generate initiating functionalities for glycidol, the protected hydroxyl groups of the P(EEGE) block were recovered by hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid. Partial deprotonation of the linear poly(glycerol) block with cesium hydroxide permi…
Cooperative structure formation by combination of covalent and association chain polymers: 4. Designing functional groups for supramolecular structur…
1991
Abstract A small number of polar functional groups are attached to polybutadiene by a polymer analogous reaction. Depending on their molecular structure, different degrees of supramolecular ordering result from the aggregation of these polar groups. In the case of phenylurazole units, which carry a single site for hydrogen-bond complexation, binary contacts are formed; whereas linear association chain structures are formed in the case of polybutadiene carrying phenylurazole units additionally substituted with a carboxy group in meta or para positions of the phenyl ring. In the latter case, association chains aggregate cooperatively to an ordered supramolecular structure. The different struc…
