  • Title: Biocatalytic synthesis of maltodextrin-based acrylates from starch and α-cyclodextrin.
    Author: Kloosterman WM, Spoelstra-van Dijk G, Loos K.
    Journal: Macromol Biosci; 2014 Sep; 14(9):1268-79. PubMed ID: 24863052.
    Abstract:
    Novel 2-(β-maltooligooxy)-ethyl (meth)acrylate monomers are successfully synthesized by CGTase from Bacillus macerans catalyzed coupling of 2-(β-glucosyloxy)-ethyl acrylate and methacrylate with α-cyclodextrin or starch. HPLC-UV analysis shows that the CGTase catalyzed reaction yields 2-(β-maltooligooxy)-ethyl acrylates with 1 to 15 glucopyranosyl units. (1) H NMR spectroscopy reveals that the β-linkage in the acceptor molecule is preserved during the CGTase catalyzed coupling reaction, whereas the newly introduced glucose units are attached by α-(1,4)-glycosidic linkages. The synthesized 2-(β-maltooligooxy)-ethyl acrylate monomers are successfully polymerized by aqueous free radical polymerization to yield the comb-shaped glycopolymer poly(2-(β-maltooligooxy)-ethyl acrylate).
