A novel poly[([Formula: see text]-CL)-co-(GA-alt-L-Asp)] with improved hydrophilicity was prepared. The monomer 3(S)-[(benzyloxycarbony)methyl]-1,4-dioxane-2,5-dione (BMD) was prepared from aspartic acid. The polymer was obtained by ring-opening polymerization of [Formula: see text]-caprolactone ([Formula: see text]-CL) and BMD. Poly[([Formula: see text]-CL)-co-(GA-alt-L-Asp)] was synthesized by deprotection. The structure and properties of the polymer were characterized using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, and differential scanning calorimetry. The melting point and melting enthalpy of the polymer decreased with the increase of BMD. The structural regularity of polycaprolactone was destroyed by the BMD. A laminin-derived peptide [i.e., Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)] was covalently tethered to the carboxyl groups and the peptide-grafted films. Results indicated that the addition of RGD had beneficial effects for cell growth, as shown by scanning electron microscopy.

The convergence of artificial intelligence and machine learning with material science holds significant promise to rapidly accelerate development timelines of new high-performance polymeric materials. Within this context, we report an inverse design strategy for polycarbonate and polyester discovery based on a recommendation system that proposes polymerization experiments that are likely to produce materials with targeted properties. Following recommendations of the system driven by the historical ring-opening polymerization results, we carried out experiments targeting specific ranges of monomer conversion and dispersity of the polymers obtained from cyclic lactones and carbonates. The results of the experiments were in close agreement with the recommendation targets with few false negatives or positives obtained for each class.<br>
