Tuning LCST with thiol-responsiveness of thermoresponsive copolymers containing pendant disulfides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new approach that centers on modulating the hydrophobic-hydrophilic balance by conversion of pendant disulfides to thiols and further to sulfides enables facile tuning of the thermoresponsive properties of thiol-responsive copolymers.

Synthesis of biodegradable polyesteramides with pendant functional groups
Morpholine-2,5-dione derivatives having substituents with benzyl-protected carboxylic acid, benzyloxycarbonyl-protected amine and p-methoxy-protected thiol groups, respectively, were prepared in 2958% yield by cyclization of the corresponding N-[(2RS)-bromopropionyl]L-amino acids. Polyesteramides with protected pendant functional groups were obtained by ringopening copolymerization of either &-...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Dual Temperature Responsive Block Copolymers and Their Potential as Biomedical Applications
The development of stimuli responsive polymers has progressed significantly with novel preparation techniques, which has allowed access to new materials with unique properties. Dual thermoresponsive (double temperature responsive) block copolymers are particularly of interest as their properties can change depending on the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) or upper critical solution te...
متن کاملSynthesis and Direct Observation of Thermoresponsive DNA Copolymers
Single-molecule techniques allow for the direct observation of long-chain macromolecules, and these methods can provide a molecular understanding of chemically heterogeneous and stimuli-response polymers. In this work, we report the synthesis and direct observation of thermoresponsive DNA copolymers using single-molecule techniques. DNA-PNIPAM copolymers are synthesized using a two-step strateg...
متن کاملEnvironment-friendly photolithography using poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based thermoresponsive photoresists.
We report a novel approach for the temperature-triggered development of water-soluble photoresists based on photocleavable poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) copolymers. These copolymers are soluble in an aqueous environment below their Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST). Upon UV irradiation, the photocleavable groups are deprotected resulting in an increased LCST. Thus, the illuminated parts ...
متن کاملThermo-Induced Self-Assembly of Responsive Poly(DMAEMA-<italic>b</italic>-DEGMA) Block Copolymers into Multi- and Unilamellar Vesicles
A series of thermoresponsive diblock copolymers of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate-block-di(ethyleneglycol) methyl ether methacrylate], poly(DMAEMA-b-DEGMA), were synthesized by reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerizations. The series consist of diblock and quasi diblock copolymers. Sequential monomer addition was used for the quasi diblock copolymer synthesi...
