[3-(Methacryloylamino) propyl) dimethyl (3-sulfopropyl) ammonium hydroxide] polymer, known as poly (MPDSAH), and the random copolymers based on methyl methacrylate (MMA), methacryloxyethyltrimethylammonium (METAC) and 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate potassium (SPMA) were synthesized via Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) polymerization technique. Solution properties of these (co) polymers in response to temperature and ionic strength have been studied using dynamic light scattering (DLS). For poly (MPDSAH), polymer size decreased from 500 nm to 10 nm (in diameter) when the polymer aqueous solution was heated up from 15°C to 60°C or added 20 mM sodium chloride. The solution behaviour of poly (METAC-stat-MMA-stat-SPMA) is opposite to that of poly (MPDSAH): the size of polymer increased from 10 nm to 20 nm (in diameter) depending upon the elevating temperature or the addition of salt.

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.

The objective of this research was to develop novel phosphonate-containing polymers as they remain a relatively under researched area of polymer chemistry. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of 2-(1-(2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)ethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethyl acrylate (M1) and diethyl (2-(4-(2-acrylamidoethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethyl)phosphonate (M2) monomers using the copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) ‘click’ reaction, and their subsequent polymerization via both uncontrolled and reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization techniques yielding phosphonate polymers (P1–P4).

Molecularly Imprinted Microspheres

A molecularly imprinted microsphere (MIPs) was prepared successfullyviasurface-initiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Characterization of the obtained MIPs was achieved by FT-IR and TGA. The isothermal adsorption and chiral separation experiments of MIPs on L-Carnitine were investigated. Compared with non-imprinted microsphere (NMIPs) adsorbent, MIPs showed faster adsorption rate and stronger adsorption capacity for L-Carnitine. Equilibrium experimental data of MIPs fitted the Langmuir isotherm better. Furthermore, the MIPs also exhibited enantioselectivity for L-Carnitine through the resolution experiment.

Abstract Reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerizations of styrene in fluid CO2 have been carried out at 80°C and 300 bar using cumyl dithiobenzoate as the controlling agent in the concentration range of 3.5·10-3 to 2.1·10-2 mol/L. This is the first report on RAFT polymerization in fluid CO2. The polymerization rates were retarded depending on the employed RAFT agent concentration with no significant difference between the RAFT polymerization performed in fluid CO2 and in toluene. Full chain length distributions were analyzed with respect to peak molecular weights, indicating the successful control of radical polymerization in fluid CO2. A characterization of the peak widths may suggest a minor influence of fluid CO2 on the addition reaction of macroradicals on the dithiobenzoate group.
