Oligosaccharide synthesis on soluble high-molecular weight pHEMA using a photo-cleavable linker.

ABSTRACT: Oligosaccharide synthesis on organic solvent soluble, high molecular weight poly(2-hydroxyethylmethylacrylate) (pHEMA) is described. The pHEMA-bound oligosaccharide could be recovered after each reaction in 90-95% yield using a precipitation method. The methodology was used to synthesize a model tri-galactoside in 48% overall yield and a trisaccharide from the outer core domain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lipopolysacchride (LPS) in 39% yield. The use of a photo-cleavable linker is also demonstrated to produce reducing-end protected oligosaccharides.

Project description:We report the synthesis of sterically-stabilized diblock copolymer particles at 20% w/w solids via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) aqueous dispersion polymerization of N,N'-dimethylacrylamide (DMAC) in highly salty media (2.0 M (NH4)2SO4). This is achieved by selecting a well-known zwitterionic water-soluble polymer, poly(2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC), to act as the salt-tolerant soluble precursor block. A relatively high degree of polymerization (DP) can be targeted for the salt-insoluble PDMAC block, which leads to the formation of a turbid free-flowing dispersion of PDMAC-core particles by a steric stabilization mechanism. 1H NMR spectroscopy studies indicate that relatively high DMAC conversions (>99%) can be achieved within a few hours at 30 °C. Aqueous GPC analysis indicates high blocking efficiencies and unimodal molecular weight distributions, although dispersities increase monotonically as higher degrees of polymerization (DPs) are targeted for the PDMAC block. Particle characterization techniques include dynamic light scattering (DLS) and electrophoretic light scattering (ELS) using a state-of-the-art instrument that enables accurate ζ potential measurements in a concentrated salt solution. 1H NMR spectroscopy studies confirm that dilution of the as-synthesized dispersions using deionized water lowers the background salt concentration and hence causes in situ molecular dissolution of the salt-intolerant PDMAC chains, which leads to a substantial thickening effect and the formation of transparent gels. Thus, this new polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) formulation enables high molecular weight water-soluble polymers to be prepared in a highly convenient, low-viscosity form. In principle, such aqueous PISA formulations are highly attractive: there are various commercial applications for high molecular weight water-soluble polymers, while the well-known negative aspects of using a RAFT agent (i.e., its cost, color, and malodor) are minimized when targeting such high DPs.
