A novel structural triblock copolymer of poly(gamma-benzyl-l-glutamic acid)-b-poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PBLG-PEO-PCL) was synthesized by a new approach in the following three steps: (1) sequential anionic ring opening polymerization (ROP) of ethylene oxide and epsilon-caprolactone with an acetonitrile/potassium naphthalene initiator system to obtain a diblock copolymer CN-PEO-PCL with a cyano end-group; (2) conversion of the CN end-group into NH2 end-group by hydrogenation to obtain NH2-PEO-PCL; (3) ROP of gamma-benzyl-l-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydrides (Bz-l-GluNCA) with NH2-PEO-PCL as macroinitiator to obtain the target triblock copolymer. The structures from CN-PEO precursor to the triblock copolymers were confirmed by FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and their molecular weights were measured by gel permeation chromatography. The monomer of Bz-l-GluNCA can react almost quantitatively with the amino end-groups of NH2-PEO-PCL macroinitiator by ROP.
通过一种新方法分三步合成了一种新型结构的聚(γ-苄基-L-谷氨酸)-b-聚环氧乙烷-b-聚己内酯(PBLG-PEO-PCL)三嵌段共聚物:(1)使用乙腈/萘钾引发剂体系对环氧乙烷和己内酯进行顺序阴离子开环聚合(ROP),以获得具有氰基端基的二嵌段共聚物CN-PEO-PCL;(2)通过氢化将CN端基转化为NH2端基,得到NH2-PEO-PCL;(3)以NH2-PEO-PCL作为大分子引发剂对γ-苄基-L-谷氨酸-N-羧酸酐(Bz-l-GluNCA)进行ROP,以获得目标三嵌段共聚物。通过傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)和1H核磁共振光谱(1H NMR)对从CN-PEO前体到三嵌段共聚物的结构进行了确认,并通过凝胶渗透色谱法测量了它们的分子量。Bz-l-GluNCA单体可以通过ROP与NH2-PEO-PCL大分子引发剂的氨基端基几乎定量地反应。
