A “grafting from” approach for facile access of multifunctional miktoarm star polymers containing peptide arms.
Two series of 3–12 multiarm star polymers and 4-miktoarm star copolymer of butadiene and styrene, in which the Mn of arm was higher than 20 kg mol−1, were synthesized with high efficiency (from 85.0% to 96.1%) via click chemistry.
