Summary: A chitin‐xylan hybrid polysaccharide having β(1 → 4)‐linked alternating structure of N‐acetyl‐D ‐glucosamine and D ‐xylose was synthesized via chitinase‐catalyzed polymerization. An oxazoline derivative of D ‐xylosyl‐β(1 → 4)‐N‐acetyl‐D ‐glucosamine ( 1 ) was effectively polymerized by the catalysis of chitinase from Bacillus sp., giving rise to a water‐soluble chitin‐xylan hybrid polysaccharide ( 2 ) in good yields. Molecular weights ( ) of 2 reached 1 500, which corresponds to 8–10 saccharide units.

The kinetic model of the co‐polycondensation with A2 and AB2 type monomers is developed and the analytical expressions of the various molecular parameters of the products are derived rigorously. The monomer feed ratio (α) of A2 to AB2 significantly affects the molecular parameters and the critical condition of gelation. Gelation can be avoided if α is > . At the critical state, the degree of branching decreases firstly and reaches its minimum value at about α≈0.22. Then, it increases with increasing α‐value. In comparison with experimental results, non‐equal reactivity of the active groups should be considered.

A poly(methyl methacrylate)‐block‐poly(acrylic acid)‐block‐poly(2‐vinyl pyridine)‐block‐poly(acrylic acid)‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA‐PAA‐P2VP‐PAA‐PMMA), pentablock terpolymer has been synthesized by anionic polymerization with sequential addition of monomers and studied in aqueous media at low pH. The system exhibits combined properties and adopts the behavior of ‘telechelic’ polyelectrolytes and that of double hydrophilic polyampholytes. This complex behavior leads to the pentablock terpolymer forming a pH and temperature sensitive reversible hydrogel at very low polymer concentration.

A cationic water‐soluble polyfluorene (P2) containing a high density of tetraalkylammonium side chains in polymer backbone was synthesized and characterized. The polymer shows excellent water solubility up to 100 mg · mL−1 as well as high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of 44% in water. The relatively high cationic density and appropriate side chain length of the polymer are the key factors to achieve such high water solubility. The reduction potential of P2 is decreased as compared with its neutral polymer, reflecting the enhanced electron injection abilities. The standard NPB/Alq3 device using such a polymer as the electron injection layer shows nearly three‐fold enhancement in the electroluminescence (EL) efficiency.

Fluorescent vesicles considered as a mimic of natural primitive cells are prepared from poly(3‐hexylthiophene)‐block‐poly(3‐O‐methacryloyl‐D‐galactopyranose) P3HT‐b‐PMAGP copolymers. The unique characteristic of such vesicular nanostructures is their architecture, which comprises a hydrophobic π‐conjugated P3HT wall stabilized by a hydrophilic PMAGP interface featuring glucose units. The results of this work offer a very efficient and straightforward method for engineering well‐controlled fluorescent nanoparticles (without the addition of dyes), which provide an excellent support to the study of carbohydrate‐protein interactions.

Summary: A novel non‐aqueous emulsion system, consisting of cyclohexane as the continuous and acetonitrile as the dispersed phase, is described. Stabilization of the system can be achieved by using polyisoprene‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymers as emulsifiers. The suitability of this system for performing water‐sensitive, catalytic, and oxidative polymerizations and polycondensations is demonstrated by the synthesis of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene), poly(thiophene‐3‐yl‐acetic acid), and polyacetylene. In all cases spherical nanoparticles with diameters as small as 23 nm can be obtained.

In this communication an extended “in–out” polymerization method is presented, which leads to the synthesis of novel heteroarm star block terpolymers of the type An(B‐b‐C)n. A four step/one‐pot synthetic procedure is pursued using anionic polymerization under an inert atmosphere. The resulted star‐shaped terpolymer consists of a divinyl benzene nodule bearing pure polystyrene and poly(hexyl methacrylate)‐block‐poly(methyl methacrylate) diblock copolymer arms. It is shown that this kind of star terpolymers can self‐assemble in the bulk forming lamellae mesophase by arm and block segregation. The mechanical properties of the terpolymer have been examined in detail. Finally, the proposed synthetic procedure can be easily employed in other controlled polymerization methods.

Self‐assembly of poly(2‐vinylpyridine)‐block‐poly(ϵ‐caprolactone) (P2VP‐b‐PCL) diblock copolymer in the presence of a selective solvent is investigated by transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Addition of water into a P2VP‐b‐PCL solution in N,N‐dimethylformamide at 20 °C produces elongated truncated lozenge shaped single crystals of uniform size and shape in large quantities. The single crystals are composed of PCL single‐crystal layer sandwiched between two P2VP layers tethered on the top and bottom basal surfaces. The formation of the single crystals is found to depend on the temperature. These findings provide a facile approach to the preparation of uniform single crystals in large quantities.

Summary: Tetraaniline‐block‐poly(L ‐lactide) diblock oligomers are synthesized via ring‐opening polymerization. The diblock oligomers cast from an L ‐lactide selective solvent (chloroform) show spherical aggregates for the leucoemeraldine state, and ring‐like structures that are composed of much smaller spherical aggregates for the emeraldine state. The formation mechanisms of the two different surface morphologies are discussed in detail.

Summary: We developed a facile approach to hyperbranched polymers by applying a superelectrophilic reaction within an A2 + B3 strategy. A significant reactivity difference between the intermediate and the starting material was utilized to avoid gelation in the A2 + B3 polymerization. A number of hyperbranched poly(arylene oxindole)s were achieved in a one‐step polymerization and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography. Moreover, further modifications at the interior and exterior of the resulting polymers were explored as well.

We report a simple procedure to prepare a novel Au‐micelle composite with a core‐shell‐corona structure. This composite is prepared by reduction of tetrachloroauric acid (HAuCl4 · 3H2O) in dilute aqueous solution containing polystyrene‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) micelles and poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) copolymers. The micelles with a polystyrene core and a poly(4‐vinylpyridine) shell are transformed into Au‐micelle composites with a polystyrene core, a swollen hybrid Au/poly(4‐vinylpyridine) inner shell, and a poly(ethylene oxide) corona by direct physisorption of gold particles with poly(4‐vinylpyridine) chains.

Amphiphilic poly[(ε‐caprolactone)‐co‐glycolide]‐block‐poly(ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly[(ε‐caprolactone)‐co‐glycolide) [P(CL‐GL)‐PEG‐P(CL‐GL)] triblock copolymers with different average lengths of caproyl sequences (LCL) were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization at different temperatures. A 25% aqueous solution of the copolymer with LCL = 11.0 formed a gel, owing to strong crystallinity‐induced hydrophobicity at low temperature, and underwent a gel‐sol transition (UCST behavior) when the temperature was increased to 40 °C. In contrast, the solution of copolymer with LCL = 6.7 underwent a sol‐gel transition (LCST behavior) due to micelle aggregation. However, a clear sol‐turbid sol phase transition was observed for the copolymer with more random microstructures (LCL = 5.2).

Supramolecular complexes of a poly(tert‐butoxystyrene)‐block‐polystyrene‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) triblock copolymers and less than stoichiometric amounts of pentadecylphenol (PDP) are shown to self‐assemble into a core–shell gyroid morphology with the core channels formed by the hydrogen‐bonded P4VP(PDP)complexes. After structure formation, PDP was removed using a simple washing procedure, resulting in well‐ordered nanoporous films that were used as templates for nickel plating.

A dielectric elastomer derived from a polystyrene‐block‐poly(ethylene‐co‐butylene)‐block‐polystyrene triblock copolymer swollen with a midblock‐selective solvent is reported to show promise as a nanostructured organic actuator requiring no pre‐strain. This might provide an attractive alternative to conventional acrylic, siloxane, and polyurethane elastomers since the electromechanical properties are composition‐tunable.

A series of new copolymers with high molecular weight and low polydispersity, prepared from tetrahydroxydinaphthyl, tetrahydroxyspirobisindane, and tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile monomers, prevent efficient space packing of the stiff polymer chains and consequently show intrinsic microporosity. One copolymer, DNPIM‐33, has an excellent combination of properties with good film‐forming characteristics and gas transport performance, and exhibits higher selectivity than the corresponding spirobisindane‐based homopolymer PIM‐1 for gas pairs, such as O2/N2, with a corresponding small decrease in permeability. This work demonstrates that significant improvements in properties may be obtained through development of copolymers with intrinsic microporosity (CoPIMs) that extends the spectrum of high‐molecular‐weight ladder structures of poly(dibenzodioxane)s.

A novel approach is employed to produce core–corona nanospheres, which introduces a stereoregular hydrophilic part to an amphiphilic block copolymer. The resultant morphology is reported using isotactic‐poly(methacrylic acid)‐block‐poly(butyl acrylate). Infrared spectroscopy revealed a supramolecular interaction, and X ray diffraction revealed the crystallization of the outer isotactic‐poly(methacrylic acid) part. The nanostructure, which looks like a nanosized ‘grape’, was formed when nanospheres and nanofibers coexisted simultaneously and partially fused.

Poly(L ‐lactic acid)‐block‐poly(poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate) (PLLA‐b‐PPEGMA) has been prepared by the ring‐opening polymerization of lactide with a double‐headed initiator, 2‐hydroxyethyl 2′‐methyl‐2′‐bromopropionate (HMBP), followed by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of poly(ethylene glycol) monomethacrylate (PEGMA). PLLA‐b‐PPEGMA nanoparticles with encapsulated Fe3O4 are prepared by a solvent evaporation/extraction technique, and then further functionalized with folic acid, a cancer targeting ligand. Our results show that such functionalized PLLA‐b‐PPEGMA nanoparticles have good potential as carriers for targeted drug delivery in cancer treatment.

Miniemulsion polymerization with an amphiphilic poly(acrylic acid)‐block‐polystyrene reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer agent as a surfactant and polymerization mediator is used to synthesize highly uniform nanocapsules. The nanocapsules with uniform structures, which include particle size, shell thickness, and shape symmetry, could be achieved by the post‐addition of a small amount of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Although the solid particles seem unavoidable, the ‘pure’ uniform core–shell structures are easily collected by centrifugation.

CdSe nanoparticles stabilized with the amphiphilic diblock copolymer polystyrene‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) were spread from toluene dispersion on the water surface. Monolayers could be transferred onto solid substrates using the Langmuir‐Blodgett technique. By means of atomic force and scanning electron microscopy highly symmetric ring and disk‐like structures with diameters ranging between 150 nm and 1200 nm were observed.

The mode of packing and the adjacent re‐entry folds of chains of syndiotactic 1,2‐poly(1,3‐butadiene) have been studied by molecular mechanics calculations with the use of various sets of potential functions. The results of the packing analysis indicate that the crystal grows preferentially along the [100] and [110] directions. Models of fold have been built up on an infinite ab surface completely covered by adjacent re‐entry folds in the (100) and (110) planes. The results of energy minimizations show that several almost isoenergetic folds, constituted by four monomeric units, can be realized in the (100) planes, while the fold in the (110) planes has higher energy. The calculated value of the work of fold is in satisfactory agreement with that derived by crystallization kinetics reported in literature.
