Title: Carbohydrate-Based Initiators for the Cationic Ring-Opening Polymerization of 2-Ethyl-2-Oxazoline. Author: Weber C, Gottschaldt M, Hoogenboom R, Schubert US. Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2016; 1367():49-59. PubMed ID: 26537464. Abstract: The advancement in the field of living and controlled polymerization techniques provides the opportunity for careful bottom-up design of polymers for biomedical applications according to their specific needs. This contribution describes the detailed methodology to functionalize poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline), a polymer with properties very similar to polyethylene glycol, in a stereo-selective manner with a range of carbohydrates that can serve as biological targeting units. The obtained building blocks can subsequently be applied for the synthesis of more complex polymeric architectures.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
