Enzymatic polycondensation of benzyl-2,2-bis(methylol) propionate and sebacic acid has been performed using lipase Novozyme-435 as the catalyst, subsequently enzymatic ring-opening polymerization was reacted by adding ε-caprolactone as the monomer in the same system. Then atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from the macroinitiator combining α-bromoester of styrene was catalyzed by CuCl/2,2’-Dipyridyl to obtain the block copolymer successfully. The polymers obtained in different conditions were analyzed by 1HNMR and GPC.

Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-polystyrene (PS)star-block copolymer with a cross-linked microgel core were synthesized by the combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of St and lipase-catalyzed ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-CL. The characterization of PCL-Br, PCL-PS-Br macroinitiator and PCL-PS Star-block copolymers was detected by GPC and 1H NMR. Results showed that the target star-block copolymers were successfully prepared.

By using triarylsulfonium hexafluorophosphate salt as an organocatalyst for both photo-controlled atom transfer radical polymerization (photo-ATRP) and ring-opening polymerization (ROP) at ambient temperature, well-defined poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(trimethylene carbonate) block copolymer was...
