One‐pot synthesis of hyperbranched glycopolymers by RAFT polymerization

Soluble hyperbranched glycopolymers were prepared by copolymerization of glycan monomers with reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT) inimers in a simple one‐pot reaction. Two novel RAFT inimers, 2‐(methacryloyloxy)ethyl 4‐cyano‐4‐(phenylcarbonothioylthio)pentanoate (MAE‐CPP) and 2‐(3‐(benzylthiocarbonothioylthio)propanoyloxy)ethyl acrylate (BCP‐EA) were synthesized and used to prepare hyperbranched glycopolymers. Two types of galactose‐based saccharide monomers, 6‐O‐methacryloyl‐1,2:3,4‐di‐O‐isopropylidene‐D ‐galactopyranose (proGal‐M) and 6‐O‐(2′‐acrylamido‐2′‐methylpropanoate)‐1,2:3,4‐di‐O‐isopropylidene‐D ‐galactopyranose (proGal‐A), containing a methacrylate and an acrylamide group, respectively, were also synthesized and polymerized under the mediation of the MAE‐CPP and BCP‐EA inimers, respectively. In addition, hyperbranched poly(proGal‐M), linear poly(proGal‐A), and hyperbranched poly(proGal‐A) were generated and their polymerization kinetics were studied and compared. An unexpected difference was observed in the kinetics between the two monomers during polymerization: the relationship between polymerization rate and concentration of inimer was totally opposite in the two monomer–inimer systems. Branching analysis was conducted by using degree of branching (DB) as the measurement parameter. As expected, a higher DB occurred with increased inimer content. Furthermore, these polymers were readily deprotected by hydrolysis in trifluoroacetic acid solution resulting in water‐soluble polymers. The resulting branched glycopolymers have potential as biomimetics of polysaccharides. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2012

One‐pot synthesis of polyrotaxane by clipping and cyclopolymerization of α,ω‐diethynyl isophthalamide with pyridiniumdicarboxamide chloride

The one‐pot synthesis of a main chain‐type polyrotaxane composed of axle molecules threaded through the macrocyclic units on the polymer main chain was achieved via the combination of cyclopolymerization and clipping procedures. The cyclopolymerization of an α,ω‐diethynyl monomer bearing an isophthalamide moiety ( 1 ), which clips onto an axle component bearing a pyridiniumdicarboxamide moiety ( 2·Cl ) through a chloride anion was carried out in chloroform with the monomer concentration of 0.06 mol L^?1 at 40 °C using [Rh(nbd)Cl]₂/Et₃N as a catalyst to afford a gel‐free polymer. The resulting polymer was assigned to the main chain‐type polyrotaxane with a poly(phenylacetylene) backbone (poly‐ 3·Cl ) based on size exclusion chromatography and ¹H NMR measurements. The diffusion‐order two‐dimensional NMR and circular dichroism spectra provided definitive proof of the rotaxaned architecture in the polymer. The mole fraction of the rotaxane unit in the total cyclic repeating unit was determined to be 26.3%. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2011

One‐pot inimer promoted ROCP synthesis of branched copolyesters using α‐hydroxy‐γ‐butyrolactone as the branching reagent

An array of branched poly(?‐caprolactone)s was successfully synthesized using an one‐pot inimer promoted ring‐opening multibranching copolymerization (ROCP) reaction. The biorenewable, commercially available yet unexploited comonomer and initiator 2‐hydroxy‐γ‐butyrolactone was chosen as the inimer to extend the use of 5‐membered lactones to branched structures and simultaneously avoiding the typical tedious work involved in the inimer preparation. Reactions were carried out both in bulk and in solution using stannous octoate (Sn(Oct)₂) as the catalyst. Polymerizations with inimer equivalents varying from 0.01 to 0.2 were conducted which resulted in polymers with a degree of branching ranging from 0.049 to 0.124. Detailed ROCP kinetics of different inimer systems were compared to illustrate the branch formation mechanism. The resulting polymer structures were confirmed by ¹H, ¹³C, and ₁H‐₁₃C HSQC NMR and SEC (RI detector and triple detectors). The thermal properties of polymers with different degree of branching were investigated by DSC, confirming the branch formation. Through this work, we have extended the current use of the non‐homopolymerizable γ‐butyrolactone to the branched polymers and thoroughly examined its behaviors in ROCP. © 2016 The Authors.
