Self-assembly of a diblock copolymer with pendant disulfide bonds and chromophore groups: a new platform for fast release

An amphiphilic block copolymer comprising poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(2-(methacryloyl)oxyethyl-2'-hydroxyethyl disulfide) (PMAOHD) blocks was synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). Pyrenebutyric acid was conjugated to the block copolymer by esterification, and a block copolymer with pendant disulfide bonds and pyrenyl groups (PEG-b-P(MAOHD-g-Py)) was obtained. (1)H NMR and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) results demonstrated the successful synthesis of the block copolymer. The cleavage of the disulfide bonds and the degrafting of the pyrenyl groups were investigated in THF and a THF/methanol mixture. Fluorescence spectroscopy, GPC, and (1)H NMR results demonstrated fast cleavage of the disulfide bonds by Bu(3)P in THF. Fluorescence results showed the ratio of the intensity of the excimer peak to the monomer peak decreased rapidly within 20 min. GPC traces of the block copolymer moved to a long retention time region after addition of Bu(3)P, indicating the cleavage of the disulfide bonds and the degrafting of the pyrenyl groups. PEG-b-P(MAOHD-g-Py) can self-assemble into micelles with poly(MAOHD-g-Py) cores and PEG coronae in a mixture of methanol and THF (9:1 by volume). The dissociation of the micelles in the presence of Bu(3)P was investigated. After cleavage of the disulfide bonds in the micellar cores, a pyrene-containing small molecular compound and a block copolymer with pendant thiol groups were produced. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and (1)H NMR were employed to track the dissociation of the polymeric micelles. All the techniques demonstrated the dissociation of the micelles and the fast release of pyrenyl groups from the micelles.

Micellization of copolymers via noncovalent interaction with TPPS and aggregation of TPPS

Copolymerization of 2,3-Dihydropyran and Ethyl Vinyl Ether with Maleic Anhydride

2,3-Dihydropyran (DHP) and ethyl vinyl ether (EVE) were co-polymerized with maleic anhydride (MA) with benzoyl peroxide at 60°C, and 1:1 alternating copolymers were obtained. The rates were maximum at 1:1 monomer composition. Spontaneous copolymerization and solvent effect on the rate were observed in the copolymerization of DHP with MA, in which initial rates were slower in more polar solvents. Participation of charge transfer complex was considered. EVE copolymerized rapidly with MA, reaching the theoretical limiting conversion of 1:1 alternating copolymerization. Although DHP-MA comonomer pair and EVE-MA comonomer pair formed similar 1:1 charge transfer complexes, DHP copolymerized slowly with MA to produce a low molecular weight copolymer, and the limiting conversion was much lower than the theoretical one. To explain these, degradative chain transfer to DHP monomer is proposed as the initial rate of DHP-MA copolymerization is proportional to the initiator concentration to the power 1.1. Q and e values of DHP were calculated to be 0.013 and -0.93, respectively, from the monomer reactivity ratios of copolymerization of DHP with acrylonitrile [r₁ (DHP)=0.003 ± 0.006 and r₂ (AN)=3.6 ± 0.3].     

Flexibility of the triblock copolymers modulating their penetration and expulsion mechanism in Langmuir monolayers of dihexadecyl phosphoric acid

The surface activity of the poly–[block (ethylene oxide)]–poly [block (propylene oxide)]–poly [block (ethylene oxide)] copolymers (EO)_x–(PO)_y–(EO)_x adsorbed together with dihexadecyl phosphoric acid (DHP), a synthetic phospholipid, is analyzed from their surface pressure and surface potential isotherms. The block copolymers of (EO)_x–(PO)_y–(EO)_x with variable molecular weight (1100–14 000) were dissolved in the subphase for DHP monolayers. The concentration of the copolymers within the aqueous subphase were selected to render an initial surface tension of 60 mN/m. The simultaneous adsorption of the copolymer and DHP is attested by the observation of a liquid expanded state at large areas, absent for pure DHP monolayers. Above some critical surface pressure all copolymers cited above are expelled from the interface. The surface potential isotherms, which give information on the component of the molecular dipole moment normal to the plane of the monolayer, are interpreted in terms of changes in the copolymer conformation as well as in terms of the copolymer desorption from the air–liquid interface. For an equal hydrophobic/hydrophilic ratio, the size of the chains or molecular weight is decisive in the mechanism of the copolymer expulsion from the air–liquid interface.     

基于含苯硼酸聚合物的双响应性胶束

pH- and temperature-dependent release from cationic vesicles coexisting with copolymer of N-isopropylacrylamide and methacrylic acid

Vesicles containing rhodamine B were prepared by evaporation and hydration method using N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-octadecanamide (DMAPODA) and stearic acid (SA). The vesicles were multi-lamellar on optical and electron micrographs. The mean size of vesicle was 807.9 nm and the values markedly increased by the addition of copolymers of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and methacrylic acid (MAA) (P(NIPAM-co-MAA)), possibly due to electrostatic interactions between the cationic vesicle and the anionic copolymer. The release of rhodamine B from the vesicles for 20 h was 50–60% at neutral pHs and the values increased up to 93.1% when pH decreased to 3. The increased release is possibly because the salt bridge formed between DMAPODA and SA was broken down at the acidic pH, leading to the disintegration of the vesicles. On the other hand, the release was not as sensitive to temperature as it was to pH. The salt bridge seemed to be stable at the temperatures of the release experiments (23 °C, 33 °C and 43 °C). P(NIPAM-co-MAA) was added to the suspension of the vesicle and the release was investigated with varying pHs and temperatures. The copolymer was pH- and temperature-sensitive in terms of the turbidity change of its solution. Nevertheless, the copolymer was found to have little effect on the pH- and temperature-dependent release of the vesicles.

Poly(glyceryl glycerol): A multi‐functional hydrophilic polymer for labeling with boronic acids

The synthesis of poly(glyceryl glycerol) (PGG), a polymer featuring a polyethylene oxide backbone and 1,2‐diol groups in every repeating unit, is presented. PGG was prepared by monomer‐activated ring‐opening polymerization of (dl ?1,2‐isopropylidene glyceryl) glycidyl ether, introducing a functional azido‐ or bromo‐head group to each chain. The 1,2‐diol groups, which were released by acidic deprotection, readily reacted with boronic acid derivatives, enabling the attachment of functional moieties under mild aqueous conditions. PGG was conjugated to poly(l ‐lactide) (PLLA) via azide‐alkyne cycloaddition and the resulting copolymer assembled into nanoparticles of 70 nm diameter in aqueous solution. Labeling of the PGG–PLLA particles was achieved by simple mixing with a boronic acid‐functional fluorophore. The labeling efficiency was determined by fluorescence spectroscopy to be 85.5% for boronic acid‐functional rhodamine B compared with 0.2% for plain rhodamine B. The strong interaction of PGG with boronic acids is ascribed to its polyol structure. This study demonstrates the usefulness and versatility of PGG as a hydrophilic polymer for possible biomedical applications. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Ring-closing and dehydrogenation reactions of highly excited cis-stilbene: ultrafast spectroscopy and structural dynamics

The ultrafast dynamics of highly excited cis-stilbene (CS) in a molecular beam is explored using femtosecond time-resolved mass spectrometry and structure-sensitive photoelectron spectroscopy. cis-Stilbene is initially pumped by a 6 eV photon to the 7(1)B state and the reaction is followed by ionization with a time-delayed 3 eV probe pulse. Upon excitation, cis-stilbene rapidly decays to the 3(1)B state, where it undergoes a ring-closing reaction to form 4a,4b-dihydrophenanthrene (DHP). Whereas 14% of the ionized CS molecules dissociate one hydrogen atom to form hydrophenanthrene, the ionized DHP molecules completely dehydrogenate in the ion state to produce hydrophenanthrene and phenanthrene with a 1:1 ratio. We determined the lifetimes of the 7(1)B state and the 3(1)B state of CS to be 167 and 395 fs, respectively.     

Microphase separation in mixed monolayers of DPPG with a double hydrophilic block copolymer at the air-water interface: a BAM, LSCFM, and AFM study

Phase separation and interactions in mixed monolayers of dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol (DPPG) with the rhodamine B end-labeled double-hydrophilic block copolymer (DHBC), poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)-block-poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide) (RhB-PDMA(207)-b-PDEA(177)), was studied at the air-water interface. Surface pressure versus area isotherms indicate that both components behave almost independently. Brewster angle microscopy (BAM) images show a random distribution of liquid condensed (LC) domains of DPPG in an apparent homogeneous matrix of DHBC, excluding the macroscopic phase separation. The laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy (LSCFM) of the rhodamine dye at the end of the PDMA chain showed how the DHBC is distributed in Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) mixed monolayers. The high spatial resolution of atomic force microscopy (AFM) combined with the LCSFM images indicates that DHBC incorporates in the expanded phase of DPPG to form mixed domains, being excluded from the condensed regions. Upon compression, nanosized LC domains of DPPG nucleate inside the mixed domains corralled in the nanopatterning of pure DHBC. The negatively charged polar group of DPPG inhibits rhodamine aggregation, while the long polymer chains promote the formation of corralled nanodomains of DPPG in two dimensions.     

Photostability of novel copolymers functionalized with laser dyes based on modified rhodamine 6G and 1,8-naphthalimide

Modified rhodamine 6G molecules (Rh-Al or Rh-Aln) with polymerizable double bonds had been copolymerized with 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives. In copolymers PRNAM, naphthalimide moieties are connected to rhodamine moieties at nitrogen atom of rhodamine moiety, and in copolymers PRNM naphthalimide moieties are connected to rhodamine moieties at ester group of rhodamine moiety. We report on their photostability in liquid solution and in solid film. The photodegradation kinetics of novel copolymers functionalized with laser dyes based on modified rhodamine 6G and 1,8-naphthalimide has been studied by UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. The results show that the rates of the photofading reactions of these novel copolymers follow quasi-first-order. The photostability of the copolymers functionalized with laser dyes in solid films is better than that in solutions. The different type of the copolymer shows the different photostability.     

Novel polymer capsules from amphiphilic graft copolymers and cross-metathesis

We report the synthesis of polymer capsules from amphiphilic graft copolymers composed of reactive, hydrophobic polyolefin backbones and hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) grafts. The capsules are produced by self-assembly of the polymers at the oil-water interface, followed by cross-linking with bis-cyclooctene PEG derivatives. The fluorescence of these capsules results from integration of rhodamine B functionalized cyclooctene 1 into the polymer structure. The use of the graft copolymer architecture in capsule synthesis provides significant opportunities to tune both the surface properties, in terms of recognition, and the membrane properties, in terms of mechanical strength, encapsulation, and release.     

CO2-sensitive amphiphilic triblock copolymer self-assembly morphology transition and accelerating drug release from polymeric vesicle

A series of triblock copolymers,containing a CO2-switchable block poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDM) block and two symmetrical hydrophilic blocks polyacrylamide (PAM),were synthesized using atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) method.The pH and conductivity tests showed that the triblock copolymer exhibited switchable responsiveness to CO2,i.e.a relatively low conductivity of solution could be switched on and off by bubbling and removing of CO2,and the triblock copolymer aqueous solution displayed a CO2-switchable viscosity variation.The changes were all attributed to protonation of tertiary amine groups in PDM blocks and proven by 1H-NMR.Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering characterization demonstrated that the viscosity variation was the result of a unilamellar vesicle-network aggregate structure transition.The release of rhodamine B from the vesicles with and without CO2 stimuli showed the potential application in drug delivery domains;after CO2 bubbling,the drug release rate could be accelerated.Finally,reasonable mechanism of CO2-switchable morphology changes and CO2-induced drug release was proposed.

A theoretical study of solvent effects on tautomerism and electronic absorption spectra of 3-hydroxy-2-mercaptopyridine and 2,3-dihydroxypyridine

The tautomerization equilibria of 3-hydroxy-2-mercaptopyridine (HMP) and 2,3-dihydroxypyridine (DHP) in vacuo and in ethanol solution have been studied using the density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31Gd level. The results indicate that the thione form of HMP and the keto form of DHP are the most stable tautomers in the equilibrium, and the energy barrier for the thiol-thione and enol-keto proton transfer decreases significantly when the tautomerism is mediated by a specific ethanol molecule in solution. The time-dependent density functional theory--polarizable continuum model (TDDFT-PCM) calculations on all tautomers of HMP and DHP in vacuo and in ethanol have assigned the lowest pi --> pi* excitations of thione and keto tautomers to the observed absorption bands of HMP and DHP in solutions. The solvation is predicted to have relatively small effect on these pi --> pi* excitations in ethanol.     

Electrochemical monitoring of photoelectrocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B using TiO2 thin film modified graphite electrode

A commercially available TiO₂ powder (Degussa P25) has been used to prepare thin films on graphite plates. The photoelectrochemical degradation of rhodamine B was investigated using this photoelectrode. The effects of applied potential, pH, and initial rhodamine B concentration on the photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) degradation of rhodamine B using ultraviolet illuminated TiO₂/graphite (TiO₂/C) thin film electrode were examined and discussed. Also, direct photolysis, electrochemical oxidation, photocatalytic, and PEC degradation of rhodamine B were compared. Results show that the best responses for PEC are obtained at applied potential of 1.2?V vs. reference electrode, pH?4.0, and initial rhodamine B concentration of 4.2?mg?L^?1.     

Rotational diffusion of ionic and neutral solutes in mixed micelles: effect of surfactant to block copolymer mole ratio on solute rotation

Rotational diffusion of an ionic solute rhodamine 110 and a neutral solute 2,5-dimethyl-1,4-dioxo-3,6-diphenylpyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole (DMDPP) has been investigated in aqueous mixtures of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and poly(ethylene oxide)20-poly(propylene oxide)70-poly(ethylene oxide)20 (P123). The purpose of this work is to understand how an increase in the mole ratio of surfactant to block copolymer from low to high influences the dynamics of ionic and neutral solute molecules. The variation in the mole ratio of CTAC to P123 from low to high has resulted in a drastic increase in the average reorientation time of rhodamine 110. In contrast, an exactly opposite trend has been noticed in the case of DMDPP. In the low mole ratio regime, rhodamine 110 and DMDPP are located at the interface and palisade layer, respectively, of P123 micelle-CTAC complexes. On the other hand, in the high mole ratio regime, both the probes are located in the Stern layer of CTAC-P123 complexes. The enhancement in the average reorientation time of rhodamine 110 with an increase in the mole ratio of surfactant to block copolymer has been rationalized on the basis of formation of rhodamine 110-Cl ion pair, which in turn associates with the cationic head groups of CTAC-P123 complexes. The observed decrease in the average reorientation time of DMDPP with an increase in the mole ratio of CTAC to P123 is a consequence of lower microviscosity of the Stern layer of CTAC-P123 complexes compared to the palisade layer of P123 micelle-CTAC complexes.
