A new water‐soluble branched poly(ethylene imine) derivative having hydrolyzable imidazolidine moieties and its application to long‐lasting release of aldehyde

A new water‐soluble poly(ethylene imine)‐derivative having imidazolidine moieties was developed. With using branched poly(ethylene imine) (BPEI) as a precursor, it was modified by Michael addition reaction of its primary amino group to an acrylate having poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chain. The modified BPEI was reacted with octanal to give the corresponding BPEI derivative having octanal‐derived imidazolidine moieties. The obtained polymer inherited the high hydrophilicity of the attached PEG chains to allow hydrolysis of the imidazolidine moieties under homogeneous conditions in aqueous media, leading to long‐lasting release of octanal. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Stimulus‐responsive polymers based on 2‐hydroxypropyl acrylate prepared by RAFT polymerization

Homopolymerization and diblock copolymerization of 2‐hydroxypropyl acrylate (HPA) has been conducted using reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) chemistry in tert‐butanol at 80 °C. PHPA homopolymers were obtained with high conversions and narrow molecular weight distributions over a wide range of target degrees of polymerization. Like its poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) isomer, PHPA homopolymer exhibits inverse temperature solubility in dilute aqueous solution, with cloud points increasing systematically on lowering the mean chain length. The nature of the end groups is shown to significantly affect the cloud point, whereas no effect of concentration was observed over the PHPA concentration range investigated. Various thermoresponsive PHPA‐based diblock copolymers were prepared via one‐pot syntheses in which the second block was either permanently hydrophilic or pH‐responsive. Preliminary studies confirmed that poly(ethylene oxide)‐poly(2‐hydroxypropyl acrylate) (PEO₄₅‐PHPA₄₈) and poly(2‐hydroxypropyl acrylate)‐ poly(2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PHPA₄₉‐PHEA₆₈)diblock copolymers formed well‐defined PHPA‐core micelles in 10 mM sodium nitrate solution at 40 °C and 70 °C with mean hydrodynamic diameters of 20 nm and 35 nm, respectively. In contrast, most other PHPA‐based diblock copolymers investigated formed larger colloidal aggregates in 10 mM NaNO₃ solution at elevated temperatures. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Photoresponsive oil sorbers

A photoresponsive oil sorber (POS) with a hydrophobic, photoresponsive core and shell has been synthesized via suspension polymerization. Lauryl acrylate, isodecyl acrylate, and tert‐butylstyrene were used as monomers, 4‐(methacrylamino)azobenzene (Azo‐M) used as photoresponsive monomer, and bis(methacryloylamino)azobenzene (Azo‐CL‐M) used as photoresponsive surface crosslinker. The POS prefers nonpolar solvents. It absorbed 15 times its dry weight in toluene, 19 times its dry weight in chloroform, and 16 times its dry weight in dichloromethane. Rapid and photoresponsive desorption of solvent (86% of solvent expulsed in 30 min) was characteristic. POS is an excellent gasoline absorber rapidly increasing its body weight in its presence. The new POS is less dense than water, and can potentially be used for cleaning oil spills on water. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 48: 55–62, 2010     

Reducibly degradable hydrogels of PNIPAM and PDMAEMA: Synthesis,stimulus‐response and drug release

Reducibly degradable hydrogels of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(N,N‐dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) were synthesized by the combination of reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and click chemistry. The alkyne‐pending copolymer of PNIPAM or PDMAEMA was obtained through RAFT copolymerization of propargyl acrylate with NIPAM or DMAEMA. Bis‐2‐azidyl‐isobutyrylamide of cystamine (AIBCy) was used as the crosslinking reagent to prepare reducibly degradable hydrogels by click chemistry. The hydrogels exhibited temperature or pH stimulus‐responsive behavior in water, with rapid response, high swelling ratio, and reproducible swelling/shrinkage cycles. The loading and release of ceftriaxone sodium proved the feasibility of the hydrogels as the stimulus‐responsive drug delivery system. Furthermore, the presence of disulfide linkage in AIBCy favored the degradation of hydrogels in the reductive environment. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermoresponsive super water absorbent hydrogels prepared by frontal polymerization

Frontal polymerization was used as an alternative technique for the preparation of super water absorbent hydrogels obtained from acrylamide and 3‐sulfopropyl acrylate, potassium salt (SPAK) in the presence of N,N′‐methylene‐bisacrylamide as a crosslinker. All samples were synthesized in dimethyl sulfoxide, and their swelling behavior in water was investigated. It was found that their features are dependent on the monomer ratio used, which influenced the porous morphology, and consequently, the swelling capability. The swelling ratio ranges from about 1000% for the acrylamide homopolymer up to 14,000% for the sample containing 87.5 mol % of SPAK, thus indicating that this parameter can be easily tuned by using the appropriate monomer ratio. The affinity towards water was eventually confirmed by contact angle analysis. Polymer hydrogels made from at least 62.5 mol % SPAK exhibit a thermoresponsive behavior, with a lower critical solution temperature of ～30 °C. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermoresponsive brush copolymers with poly(propylene oxide‐ran‐ethylene oxide) side chains via metal‐free anionic polymerization “grafting from” technique

Thermoresponsive brush copolymers with poly(propylene oxide‐ran‐ethylene oxide) side chains were synthesized via a “grafting from” technique. Poly(p‐hydroxystyrene) was used as the backbone, and the brush copolymers were prepared by random copolymerization of mixtures of oxyalkylene monomers, using metal‐free anionic ring‐opening polymerization, with the phosphazene base (t‐BuP₄) being the polymerization promoter. By controlling the monomer feed ratios in the graft copolymerization, two samples with the same side‐chain length and different compositions were prepared, both of which possessed high molecular weights and low molecular weight distributions. The results from light scattering and fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that the brush copolymers in their dilute aqueous solutions were near completely solvated at low temperature and underwent slight intramolecular chain contraction/association and much more profound intermolecular aggregation at different stages of the step‐by‐step heating process. Above 50 °C, very turbid solutions, followed by macrophase separation, were observed for both of the samples, which implied that it was difficult for the brush copolymers to form stable nanoscopic aggregates at high temperature. All these observations were attributed, at least partly, to the distribution of the oxyalkylene monomers along the side chains and the overall brush‐like molecular architecture. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Oxygen‐sensing properties of 5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphinato platinum(II) and palladium(II) covalently bound on poly(isobutyl‐co‐2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl methacrylate)

A novel methacrylate monomer bearing 5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphyrinato palladium(II) (PdTPP) (monomer 1a ) was synthesized and copolymerized with isobutyl methacrylate (IBM) and 2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEM) to give poly (IBM‐co‐TFEM) bearing PdTPP (copolymer 2a ) as a dye‐conjugated oxygen‐permeable polymer for pressure‐sensitive paint applications. The introduction of PdTPP into copolymer 2a was confirmed by UV–vis spectroscopy and extended X‐ray absorption fine structure analysis. The Stern–Volmer plots of the copolymer 2a and a mixture of PdTPP and poly(IBM‐co‐TFEM) both showed downward curvature, unlike that of the platinum complex analogue (copolymer 2b ) previously reported. The plots were successfully fitted with a two‐site model to give two distinct Stern–Volmer constants (K_SV1 and K_SV2) and the partition ratio f₁. Interestingly, the f₁ values for the copolymer 2a were almost constant at about 0.98, whereas those of the mixture of PdTPP and poly(IBM‐co‐TFEM) increased from 0.889 to 0.967 as the temperature was increased. This finding suggests that there are two distinct microheterogeneities, one temperature‐dependent and the other temperature‐independent, in the mixture of PdTPP and poly(IBM‐co‐TFEM). The dye‐conjugation approach effectively eliminates the temperature‐dependent, but not the temperature‐independent microheterogeneity. The luminescence decays of copolymers 2a and 2b and the corresponding mixtures in the absence of oxygen indicated that the temperature‐dependent microheterogeneity involves an oxygen diffusion process, whereas the temperature‐independent one appears to be inherent nature in PdTPP. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal and pH‐sensitive gold nanoparticles from H‐shaped block copolymers of (PNIPAM/PDMAEMA)‐b‐PEG‐b‐(PNIPAM/PDMAEMA)

Well‐defined H‐shaped pentablock copolymers composed of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), poly(N,N‐dimethylaminoethylacrylamide) (PDMAEMA), and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with the chain architecture of (A/B)‐b‐C‐b‐(A/B) were synthesized by the combination of single‐electron‐transfer living radical polymerization, atom‐transfer radical polymerization, and click chemistry. Single‐electron‐transfer living radical polymerization of NIPAM using α,ω azide‐capped PEG macroinitiator resulted in PNIPAM‐b‐PEG‐b‐PNIPAM with azide groups at the block joints. Atom‐transfer radical polymerization of DMAEMA initiated by propargyl 2‐chloropropionate gave out α‐capped alkyne‐PDMAEMA. The H‐shaped copolymers were finally obtained by the click reaction between PNIPAM‐b‐PEG‐b‐PNIPAM and alkyne‐PDMAEMA. These copolymers were used to prepare stable colloidal gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in aqueous solution without any external reducing agent. The formation of GNPs was affected by the length of PDMAEMA block, the feed ratio of the copolymer to HAuCl₄, and the pH value. The surface plasmon absorbance of these obtained GNPs also exhibited pH and thermal dependence because of the existence of PNIAPM and PDAMEMA blocks. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
