Metallo‐supramolecular polymers offer attractive possibilities to combine the properties of polymers with the characteristics offered by the metal–ligand coordination. Here we present for the first time the combination of metal‐bis(terpyridine) complexes and lower critical solution temperature (LCST) polymers that can be switched by addressing either the thermosensitive polymer or the metal complex. We describe a new strategy for the synthesis of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) end functionalized with a terpyridine moiety, which is further used for the preparation of FeII and ZnII‐bis(terpyridine PNIPAM). The comparison of the LCST behavior of the uncomplexed ligands and their metal complexes that bear different counter ions is included. Furthermore, the switchability of the synthesized FeII system is demonstrated by a decomplexation reaction followed by the characterization of the uncomplexed ligand.

Poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm)‐based microgels undergo a transition from fully water swollen (solvated) to deswollen (desolvated) as the temperature of the water they are dissolved in is increased >32 °C. In this submission, we examine how the temperature of this transition, i.e., the volume phase transition temperature (VPTT), depends on the concentration of methanol (MeOH) in water the microgels are dissolved in. To accomplish this, pNIPAm‐based etalons are utilized, and it is shown that the VPTT for the microgels is much less than that previously observed for linear pNIPAm and pNIPAm‐based microgels. Furthermore, and most interestingly, it is determined that the microgels can collapse in solutions containing high MeOH (>∼65% MeOH) concentration. This is in contrast to previous studies, which show that no VPTT is observed for pNIPAm in aqueous solutions containing >∼65% MeOH.

Summary: Specific temperature‐responsive biodegradable hydrogels were synthesized and characterized in terms of their regulation of enzymatic accessibility based on the physical properties of the temperature‐responsive polymers. The hydrogels consist of glycidyl methacrylate‐modified dextran grafted with the poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) homopolymer, and cross‐linked by co‐polymerization with NIPAAm and N,N‐dimethylacrylamide (DMAAm). The coil‐globule change in the grafted poly(NIPAAm) chains and only a slight dehydration of the poly(NIPAAm‐co‐DMAAm) cross‐linkers are effective in controlling the enzymatic degradation over a specific temperature range.

A diblock copolymer of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PiPA‐b‐PEO) has been prepared by radical polymerization with a ceric ion initiation system. Its thermosensitive micellization has been investigated by means of IR and fluorescence spectroscopy. The PiPA segments are critically dehydrated above 33.5°C (5 wt.‐%) and associate through hydrophobic interaction to form the hydrophobic core of the micelle. In contrast, the change in the hydration state of the PEO segments upon micellization is small. 相似文献

Poly(N‐ispropylacrylamide) [PNIPAM] is a widely studied polymer for use in biological applications due to its lower critical solution temperature (LCST) being so close to the human body temperature. Unfortunately, attempts to combine carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with PNIPAM have been unsuccessful due to poor interactions between these two materials. In this work, a PNIPAM copolymer with 1 mol‐% pyrene side group [p‐PNIPAM] was used to produce a thermoresponsive polymer capable of stabilizing both single and multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in water. The presence of pyrene in the polymer chain lowers the LCST less than 4 °C and the interaction with nanotubes does not show any influence on LCST. Moreover, p‐PNIPAM stabilized nanotubes show a temperature‐dependent dispersion in water that allows the level of nanotube exfoliation/bundling to be controlled. Cryo‐TEM images, turbidity, and viscosity of these suspensions were used to characterize these thermoresponsive changes. This ability to manipulate the dispersion state of CNTs in water with p‐PNIPAM will likely benefit many biological applications, such as drug delivery, optical sensors, and hydrogels.

Poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) Nanoparticle‐Incorporated PNIPAAm Hydrogels with Fast Shrinking Kinetics

Summary: Novel temperature‐responsive poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) nanoparticle‐containing PNIPAAm hydrogels were prepared by radical polymerization. In comparison with conventional PNIPAAm hydrogels, the PNIPAAm gels thus prepared exhibit much faster response rates as the temperature is raised above the lower critical solution temperature. The improved properties are a result of the incorporation of PNIPAAm particles, which first shrink and then generate pores for water molecules to be quickly squeezed out of the bulky PNIPAAm gels.

This work reports on thermally tunable surface wettability of electrospun fiber mats of: polystyrene (PS)/poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) blended (bl‐PS/PNIPA) and crosslinked poly[(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐co‐[methacrylic acid)] (PNIPAMAA) (xl‐NIPAMAA). Both the bl‐PS/PNIPA and xl‐PNIPAMAA fiber mats demonstrate reversibly switchable surface wettability, with the bl‐PS/PNIPA fiber mats approaching superhydrophobic ≥150° and superhydrophilic contact angle (CA) values at extreme temperatures. Weight loss studies carried out at 10 °C indicate that the crosslinked PNIPAMAA fiber mats had better structural integrity than the bl‐PS/PNIPA fiber mats. PNIPA surface chemistry and the Cassie–Baxter model were used to explain the mechanism behind the observed extreme wettability.

Macroporous temperature‐sensitive poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) hydrogels were prepared by a novel phase‐separation technique to improve the response properties. In comparison with a conventional PNIPA hydrogel prepared in water, these macroporous hydrogels, prepared by polymerization in aqueous sucrose solutions, have higher swelling ratios at temperatures below the lower critical solution temperature and exhibit much faster response rates to temperature changes.

Succinyl‐cycloSal‐phosphate triesters of ribo‐ and 2′‐deoxyribonucleosides were attached to aminomethyl polystyrene as an insoluble solid support and reacted with phosphate‐containing nucleophiles yielding nucleoside di‐ and triphosphates, nucleoside diphosphate sugars, and dinucleoside polyphosphates in high purity after cleavage from the solid support. Here, reactive cycloSal‐phosphate triesters were used as immobilized reagents that led to a generally applicable method for the efficient synthesis of phosphorylated biomolecules and phosphate‐bridged bioconjugates. 相似文献

We report a novel multifunctional material, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) containing 2‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole (HPBO), for sensing pH, zinc ion concentration, or temperature. By titration with zinc ions, a clear blue‐shifted emission with a high quantum efficiency was detected since the zinc complex prevented the nonradiative decay pathways of the HPBO moiety. The fluorescence characteristics of the copolymer were similar at various acidic or neutral conditions. However, a large blue shift on the emission maximum was exhibited under the basic condition, due to the disruption of the ESIPT process by the phenolate anion. The LCST affected the fluorescence properties significantly at the basic condition because the incompatibility between the PNIPAAm chain and phenolated HPBO moieties resulted in aggregation formation. The present study demonstrates that the new benzoxazole‐containing PINPAAm copolymer could be potentially used as multifunctional sensing material.

The aim of this study was to develop novel thermally responsive polymer microspheres with magnetic properties. Dispersion and inverse emulsion copolymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and N,N′‐methylenebisacrylamide (MBAAm) was investigated in the presence of γ‐Fe2O3 nanoparticles. The resulting microspheres were characterized in terms of morphology, size, polydispersity, iron content, and temperature‐dependent swelling using optical microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, QELS, and AAS. The effects of several variables, such as the concentration of γ‐Fe2O3, MBAAm crosslinking agent, Span 80 surfactant, 2,2′‐azobis(2‐methyloctanenitrile) (AMON) initiator, and polymerization temperature on the properties of the microspheres were studied. Swelling and thermoresponsive behavior of the microspheres containing γ‐Fe2O3 nanoparticles were also investigated. The microspheres contained about 8 wt % of iron. The presence of magnetic nanoparticles and their concentration changes did not have any significant effect on the temperature sensitivity of the composites. The particles gradually shrink into an increasingly collapsed state when the temperature is raised to 40 °C since the increase in temperature weakens the hydration and PNIPAAm chains gradually become more hydrophobic, which leads to the collapse of the particles. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Radical polymerization of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) in toluene at low temperatures, in the presence of fluorinated‐alcohols, produced heterotactic polymer comprising an alternating sequence of meso and racemo dyads. The heterotacticity reached 70% in triads when polymerization was carried out at ?40 °C using nonafluoro‐tert‐butanol as the added alcohol. NMR analysis revealed that formation of a 1:1 complex of NIPAAm and fluorinated‐alcohol through C?O···H? O hydrogen bonding induces the heterotactic specificity. A mechanism for the heterotactic‐specific polymerization is proposed. Examination of the phase transition behavior of aqueous solutions of heterotactic poly(NIPAAm) revealed that the hysteresis of the phase transition between the heating and cooling cycles depended on the average length of meso dyads in poly(NIPAAm). © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel method used for the preparation of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) films of varying crosslink density under homogeneous/heterogeneous conditions is described in this paper. Photopolymerization of the N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) monomer in water (homogeneous at ~7°C and heterogeneous at ~40°C) or a mixture of water/ethanol (50:50, heterogeneous at ~7°C) was carried out using 1‐[4‐(2‐hydroxyethoxy)‐phenyl]‐2‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐1‐propane‐1‐one (hydrophilic) or 2‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl propiophenone (hydrophobic) photo‐initiator. In order to investigate the effect of temperature and crosslink density, polymerization was carried out at ~7°C [below lower critical soluble temperature (LCST)] and ~40°C (above LCST) using varying amounts of N,N′‐methylene bisacrylamide (BIS) ranging from 1–4 wt%. Degree of swelling (determined by optical microscopy), phase transition temperature [determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)] as well as morphology (scanning electron microscopy) were found to be dependent on solvent system (homogeneous/heterogeneous), temperature of polymerization and crosslink density. Hydrogels prepared at ~7°C using hydrophobic photo‐initiator and water/ethanol (50:50) as solvent, showed much higher degree of swelling at all levels of crosslink density as compared to hydrogel prepared at ~7°C using hydrophilic photo‐initiator and water as solvent. Hydrogels were used for patterning which may find applications in microfluidic devices. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Herein, we report an effective and rapid method to purify glutathione S‐transferase (GST) using glutathione (GSH)‐modified poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAAm) and mild, thermal conditions. A chain transfer agent modified with pyridyl disulfide was employed in the reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of NIPAAm. The resulting polymer had a narrow molecular weight distribution (polydispersity index = 1.21). Conjugation of GSH to the pyridyl disulfide–pNIPAAm reached 95% within 30 min as determined by UV–Vis monitoring of the release of pyridine‐2‐thione. GST was successfully thermoprecipitated upon heating the GSH–pNIPAAm above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The pull down assay was repeated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and T4 lysozyme (T4L), which demonstrated the specificity of the polymer for GST. Due to its simplicity and high efficiency, this method holds great potential for large‐scale purification of GST‐tagged proteins.

Spherical single‐chain‐particles of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) were prepared in aqueous solution above the lower critical solution temperature upon the addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The size of the single‐chain‐particles was investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy and viscosity measurements of the corresponding solutions, indicating the absence of inter‐chain entanglements among the single‐chain‐particles.

A novel poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA)/PNIPA interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) was synthesized and characterized. In comparison with conventional PNIPA hydrogels, the shrinking rate of the IPN hydrogel increased when gels, swollen at 20 °C, were immersed in 50 °C water. The phase‐transition temperature of the IPN gel remained unchangeable because of the same chemical constituent in the PNIPA gel. The reswelling kinetics were slower than those of the PNIPA hydrogel because of the higher crosslinking density of the IPN hydrogel. The IPN hydrogel had better mechanical strength because of its higher crosslinking density and polymer volume fraction. The release behavior of 5‐fluorouracil (5‐Fu) from the IPN hydrogel showed that, at a lower temperature, the release of 5‐Fu was controlled by the diffusion of water molecules in the gel network. At a higher temperature, 5‐Fu inside the gel could not diffuse into the medium after a burst release caused by the release of the drug on the surface of the gel. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel semi‐interpenetrating polymer network based on alginate and poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNiPAAm) has been synthesized that shows response to temperature and magnetic fields. Highly homogeneous porous hydrogels are obtained by copolymerizing N‐isopropylacrylamide and bis‐acrylamide in the presence of an aqueous alginate solution. The synthesis of magnetic iron oxides by in‐situ oxidation of iron cations coordinated to the alginate network results in a hydrogel with an enhanced deswelling rate with respect to pure PNiPAAm.

In this study, the hydrophobic liquid template method was firstly used to prepare temperature sensitive, porous poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel. During the radical polymerization, hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were used as liquid templates and stabilizer, respectively. After removal of the liquid templates, porous PNIPAAm hydrogel was obtained. This gel exhibited superfast shrinking properties when being transferred from below to above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST), which was ascribed to the interconnected porous structures.

Thermosensitive PNVCL‐b‐PEG block copolymer coupled with folic acid was prepared as an anti‐cancer drug carrier. This polymer self‐assembled into stable micelles in aqueous solutions at above 33 °C. At 37 °C, the release profile of PNVCL‐b‐PEG‐FA micelles showed a slower and more controlled release of the entrapped 5‐FU than that at 25 °C. The blank and 5‐FU‐loaded PNVCL‐b‐PEG‐FA micelles did not induce remarkable cytotoxicity against the EA.hy 926 human endothelial cell line; however, 5‐FU‐loaded PNVCL‐b‐PEG‐FA micelles showed a cytotoxicity effect against 4T1 mouse mammary carcinoma cells due to the availability of loaded anti‐cancer drugs delivered to the inside of the cancer cells by the folate‐receptor‐mediated endocytosis process.
