Polymerization Conditions

The aqueous reversible addition fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) copolymerization of isoprene and bulky comonomers, an acrylate and an acrylamide in the presence of methylated β-cyclodextrin was employed for the first time to synthesize block-copolyrotaxanes. RAFT polymerizations started from a symmetrical bifunctional trithiocarbonate and gave rise to triblock-copolymers where the outer polyacrylate/polyacrylamide blocks act as stoppers for the cyclodextrin rings threaded onto the inner polyisoprene block. Statistical copolyrotaxanes were synthesized by RAFT polymerization as well. RAFT polymerization conditions allow control of the composition as well as the sequence of the constituents of the polymer backbone which further effects the CD content and the aqueous solubility of the polyrotaxane.

Particle Weight

N,N´-Dimethyl acrylamide and n-butyl acrylate have been grafted from crosslinked poly(divinylbenzene) core microspheres by both reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and conventional free radical polymerization. The microspheres were prepared by precipitation polymerization utilizing 55 and 80 wt. % divinylbenzene (DVB), respectively. The RAFT agent cumyl dithiobenzoate (CDB) was utilized and grafting was performed in toluene at 80°C with 2,2´-azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as thermal initiator. Particle weights increased up to 6% for poly(n-butyl acrylate) and up to 15% for poly(N,N´-dimethyl acrylamide). Grafting from poly(DVB-55) microspheres results in a higher particle weight increase than grafting from poly(DVB-80) microspheres while using the same RAFT agent concentrations. The particle weight increase is approximately higher by a factor of two. The grafted microspheres were characterized by attenuated total reflection (ATR) IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.

This review covers recent developments on the combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to produce well controlled (co)polymers. This review discusses the relative reactivity of the R group in ATRP and RAFT, provides a comparison of dithiocarbamate (DC), trithiocarbonate (TTC), dithioester (DTE), and xanthate versus bromine or chlorine, and an optimization of catalyst/ligand selection. The level of control in iniferter polymerization with DC was greatly improved by the addition of a copper complex. New TTC inifers with bromopropionate and bromoisobutyrate groups have been prepared to conduct, concurrently or sequentially, ATRP from Br-end groups, ATRP from the TTC moiety, and RAFT polymerization from the TTC moiety, depending on the combination of monomer and catalyst employed in the reaction. The use of concurrent ATRP/RAFT (or copper-catalyzed RAFT polymerization or ATRP with dithioester leaving groups), resulted in improved control over the synthesis of homo- and block (co)polymers and allowed preparation of well-defined high-molecular-weight polymers exceeding 1 million. Block copolymers that could not be prepared previously have been synthesized by sequential ATRP and RAFT polymerization using a bromoxanthate inifer. A simple, versatile, and one-step method involving atom-transfer radical addition–fragmentation (ATRAF) for the preparation of various chain transfer agents (including DC, DTE, and xanthate) in high purity is discussed and a one-pot, two-step polymerization starting with a RAFT agent synthesized by ATRAF, followed by polymerization, is demonstrated.

The focus of this study is the development of highly stable losartan potassium (LSR) polymeric nanocarriers. Two novel amphiphilic poly(n-butyl acrylate)-block-poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate) (PnBA-b-POEGA) copolymers with different molecular weight (Mw) of PnBA are synthesized via reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization, followed by the encapsulation of LSR into both PnBA-b-POEGA micelles. Based on dynamic light scattering (DLS), the PnBA30-b-POEGA70 and PnBA27-b-POEGA73 (where the subscripts denote wt.% composition of the components) copolymers formed micelles of 10 nm and 24 nm in water. The LSR-loaded PnBA-b-POEGA nanocarriers presented increased size and greater mass nanostructures compared to empty micelles, implying the successful loading of LSR into the inner hydrophobic domains. A thorough NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) characterization of the LSR-loaded PnBA-b-POEGA nanocarriers was conducted. Strong intermolecular interactions between the biphenyl ring and the butyl chain of LSR with the methylene signals of PnBA were evidenced by 2D-NOESY experiments. The highest hydrophobicity of the PnBA27-b-POEGA73 micelles contributed to an efficient encapsulation of LSR into the micelles exhibiting a greater value of %EE compared to PnBA30-b-POEGA70 + 50% LSR nanocarriers. Ultrasound release profiles of LSR signified that a great amount of the encapsulated LSR is strongly attached to both PnBA30-b-POEGA70 and PnBA27-b-POEGA73 micelles.

Naphthalimide Dye

We describe the synthesis of an end-functionalized copolymer of N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) and N-hydroxysuccinimide methacrylate (NMS) by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. To control the polymer composition, the faster reacting monomer (NMS) was added slowly to the reaction mixture beginning 30 min after initating the polymerization (ca. 16% HPMA conversion). One RAFT agent, based on azocyanopentanoic acid, introduced a –COOH group to the chain at one end. Use of a different RAFT agent containing a 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide dye introduced a UV–vis absorbing and fluorescent group at this chain end. The polymers obtained had molecular weights of 30 000 and 20 000, respectively, and contained about 30 mol% NMS active ester groups.
