Influence of cyclodextrin on the UCST- and LCST-behavior of poly(2-methacrylamido-caprolactam)-co-(N,N-dimethylacrylamide).

ABSTRACT: The monomer 2-methacrylamido-caprolactam (4) was synthesized from methacryloyl chloride (3) and racemic ?-amino-?-caprolactam (2). Copolymerization of 4 with N,N-dimethylacrylamide (5) was carried out by a free-radical mechanism using 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) (AIBN) as an initiator. The new copolymers show a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in water and an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in ethanol, 1-propanol, and 1-butanol. The solubility properties of the copolymers can be influenced significantly by the addition of randomly methylated ?-cyclodextrin (CD). The complexation of the copolymers with CD, was confirmed by the use of ROESY-NMR-spectroscopy.

Synthesis of well-defined alkyne terminated poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) with stringent control over the LCST by RAFT.

Project description:The reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) of N-vinyl caprolactam (NVCL) using two new xanthates with alkyne functionalities is reported. The kinetic data obtained for polymerization of this non-activated monomer using a protected alkyne-terminated RAFT agent (PAT-X1) revealed a linear increase of the polymer molecular weight with the monomer conversion as well as low dispersity (?) during the entire course of the polymerization. The system reported here allowed us to enhance the final conversion, diminish ? and reduce the polymerization temperature compared to the typical values reported in the scarce literature available for the RAFT polymerization of NVCL. The resulting PNVCL was fully characterized using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) techniques. The temperature-responsive features of PNVCL in aqueous solutions were fully investigated under different conditions using turbidimetry. The presented strategy allows the synthesis of well-defined PNVCL with sharp and reversible phase transition temperatures around 37 °C. By manipulating the polymer molecular weight, or the solution properties, it is possible to tune the PNVCL phase transition. As a proof-of concept, the alkyne functionalized PNVCL was used to afford new linear block copolymers, by reacting with an azide-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (N3-PEG) through the copper catalyzed azide-alkyne [3+2] dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The results presented establish a robust system to afford the synthesis of PNCVL with fine tuned characteristics that will enable more efficient exploration of the remarkable potential of this polymer in biomedical applications.

Adamantane Functionalized Poly(2-oxazoline)s with Broadly Tunable LCST-Behavior by Molecular Recognition.

Project description:Smart or adaptive materials often utilize stimuli-responsive polymers, which undergo a phase transition in response to a given stimulus. So far, various stimuli have been used to enable the modulation of drug release profiles, cell-interactive behavior, and optical and mechanical properties. In this respect, molecular recognition is a powerful tool to fine-tune the stimuli-responsive behavior due to its high specificity. Within this contribution, a poly(2-oxazoline) copolymer bearing adamantane side chains was synthesized via triazabicyclodecene-catalyzed amidation of the ester side chains of a poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline-stat-2-methoxycarbonylpropyl-2-oxazoline) statistical copolymer. Subsequent complexation of the pendant adamantane groups with sub-stoichiometric amounts (0-1 equivalents) of hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin or β-cyclodextrin enabled accurate tuning of its lower critical solution temperature (LCST) over an exceptionally wide temperature range, spanning from 30 °C to 56 °C. Furthermore, the sharp thermal transitions display minimal hysteresis, suggesting a reversible phase transition of the complexed polymer chains (i.e., the β-cyclodextrin host collapses together with the polymers) and a minimal influence by the temperature on the supramolecular association. Analysis of the association constant of the polymer with hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin via 1H NMR spectroscopy suggests that the selection of the macrocyclic host and rational polymer design can have a profound influence on the observed thermal transitions.

Influence of Macromolecular Architecture on the Optical and Humidity-Sensing Properties of Poly(<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>-Dimethylacrylamide)-Based Block Copolymers.

Project description:The influence of the macromolecular architecture of block copolymers containing poly(N,N-dimethyl acrylamide) (PDMA) on the optical characteristics and sensing properties of corresponding thin films is discussed. Series of hydrophilic PDMA-based copolymers of different chemical composition and chain architecture such as triblock, star-shaped, and branched were synthesized. The copolymers were characterized using conventional spectroscopic techniques as well as methods for characterization of copolymer macromolecular characteristics in solution, namely size-exclusion chromatography and static light scattering. Thin films of the copolymers of nanometer scale thickness were deposited on silicon substrates by the spin-coating method. The refractive index and extinction coefficient of the copolymer films were calculated from the reflectance spectra by using non-linear curve fitting methods and the composition-structure-optical properties relationships were evaluated. Humidity-sensing properties of the films were studied by measuring reflectance spectra of the films at a relative humidity range from 5 to 95%RH. The implementation of the copolymer films as optical sensors of humidity is justified and discussed.

LCST phase behavior of benzo-21-crown-7 with different alkyl chains.

Project description:The introduction of hydrophobic units into crown ethers can dramatically decrease the critical transition temperature of LCST and realize macroscopic phase separation at low to moderate temperature and concentration. Minor modifications in the chemical structure of crown ethers (benzo-21-crown-7, B21C7s) can effectively control the thermo-responsive properties.

Light Scattering and Rheological Studies of 3D/4D Printable Shape Memory Gels Based on Poly (N,N-Dimethylacrylamide-co-Stearyl Acrylate and/or Lauryl Acrylates).

Project description:In this work, we present the structural analysis of 3D/4D printable N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAAm)-co-stearyl acrylate (SA) and/or lauryl acrylate (LA)-based shape memory gels (SMGs). We characterized these gels by scanning microscopic light scattering technique (SMILS) where a time- and space-averaged correlation function is obtained to overcome the inhomogeneous media. Thus, the characteristic size of the gel internal network (mesh size, ξ) and crosslinking densities are estimated from the Einstein-Stokes formula. The rheological study of the SMGs revealed information about their mechanical strength and transition temperature. From the experimental storage modulus measured by rheological study, crosslinking density and mesh size of the network were also calculated. Both the techniques suggest that SMG with high crystalline content of SA monomer in the gel network contain smaller mesh size (1.13 nm for SMILS and 9.5 nm for rheology study) and high crosslinking density. The comparative study between the light scattering technique and rheological analysis through the quantitative analysis of crosslinking densities will be important to understand the structural properties of the SMGs.

Influence of Ethanol as a Co-Solvent in Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexation: A Molecular Dynamics Study.

Project description:Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were used to investigate the dynamics and host-guest interactions of the inclusion complexes between a potent anti-HIV agent, UC781, and three different types of cyclodextrins (CDs) including ?CD, 2,6-dimethyl-?CD (M?CD), and 2-hydroxypropyl-?CD (HP?CD) in aqueous solution with ethanol (EtOH) as a co-solvent. The MD simulation results revealed that EtOH as the co-solvent and the type of cyclodextrin affected the inclusion complex formation. From this study, UC781/M?CD provided the most stable inclusion complex. The competition for the cavity of ?CD between UC781 and EtOH and the ensuing occupation of ?CD cavities by EtOH resulted in a weaker interaction between ?CD and UC781. In HP?CD, a supramolecular complex of UC781-HP?CD-EtOH was formed. The EtOH could easily fill the residual void space of the interior of unoccupied HP?CD due to the movement of UC781. In M?CD, the strong hydrogen bond interactions between the UC781 amide group and the secondary hydroxyl groups of M?CD significantly stabilized the inclusion complex in the presence of EtOH.

Poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene acetylenedicarboxylate): Copolyester with Novel Nucleation Behavior.

Project description:Big spherulite structure and high crystallinity are the two main drawbacks of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and hinder its application. In this work, a new type of copolyester poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene acetylenedicarboxylate) (PBSAD) is synthesized. With the incorporation of acetylenedicarboxylate (AD) units into PBS chains, the crystallization temperature and crystallinity are depressed by excluding AD units to the amorphous region. In contrast, the primary nucleation capability is significantly strengthened, without changing the crystal modification or crystallization kinetics, leading to the recovery of total crystallization rate of PBSAD under the same supercooling condition. The existence of specific interaction among AD units is found to be crucial. Although it is too weak to contribute to the melt memory effect at elevated temperature, the interaction continuously strengthens as the temperature falls down, and the heterogeneous aggregation of AD units keeps growing. When the aggregating process reaches a certain extent, it will induce the formation of a significant amount of crystal nuclei. The unveiled nucleation mechanism helps to design PBS copolymer with good performance.

Oligomeric epoxide-amine adducts based on 2-amino-N-isopropylacetamide and ?-amino-?-caprolactam: Solubility in presence of cyclodextrin and curing properties.

Project description:2-Amino-N-isopropylacetamide and ?-amino-?-caprolactam were reacted with glycerol diglycidyl ether to give novel oligomeric thermoresponsive epoxide-amine adducts. These oligomers exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior in water. The solubility properties were influenced with randomly methylated ?-cyclodextrin (RAMEB-CD) and the curing properties of the amine-epoxide mixtures were analyzed by oscillatory rheology and differential scanning calorimetry, whereby significant differences in setting time, viscosity, and stiffness were observed.

Alternative to Poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) with a Reduced Ability to Crystallize and Physiological LCST.

Project description:In this work, we sought to examine whether the presence of alkyl substituents randomly distributed within the main chain of a 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline-based copolymer will decrease its ability to crystallize when compared to its homopolymer. At the same time, we aimed to ensure an appropriate hydrophilic/lipophilic balance in the copolymer and maintain the phase transition in the vicinity of the human body temperature. For this reason, copolymers of 2-ethyl-4-methyl-2-oxazoline and 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline were synthesized. The thermoresponsive behavior of the copolymers in water, the influence of salt on the cloud point, the presence of hysteresis of the phase transition and the crystallization ability in a water solution under long-term heating conditions were studied by turbidimetry. The ability of the copolymers to crystallize in the solid state, and their thermal properties, were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffractometry. A cytotoxicity assay was used to estimate the viability of human fibroblasts in the presence of the obtained polymers. The results allowed us to demonstrate a nontoxic alternative to poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPrOx) with a physiological phase transition temperature (LCST) and a greatly reduced tendency to crystallize. The synthesis of 2-oxazoline polymers with such well-defined properties is important for future biomedical applications.
