The bio-based lactic acid (LA) and the common metal ion chelating agent iminodiacetic acid (IDA) are used to design and prepare a polymeric sustained-release Pb chelating agent by a brief one-step reaction. After the analysis on theoretical calculation for this reaction, poly(lactic acid-iminodiacetic acid) [P(LA--IDA)] with different monomer molar feed ratios is synthesized via direct melt polycondensation. P(LA--IDA) mainly has star-shaped structure, and some of them have two-core or three-core structure. Thus, a possible mechanism of the polymerization is proposed. The degradation rate of P(LA--IDA)s can reach 70% in 4 weeks. The change of IDA release rate is consistent with the trend of the degradation rate, and the good Pb chelating performance is confirmed. P(LA--IDA) is expected to be developed as a lead poisoning treatment drug or Pb adsorbent in the environment with long-lasting effect, and this research provides a new strategy for the development of such drugs.
利用生物基乳酸(LA)和常见的金属离子螯合剂亚氨基二乙酸(IDA),通过简单的一步反应设计并制备了一种聚合物缓释铅螯合剂。在对该反应进行理论计算分析后,通过直接熔融缩聚合成了不同单体摩尔进料比的聚(乳酸-亚氨基二乙酸)[P(LA-IDA)]。P(LA-IDA)主要具有星形结构,其中一些具有双核或三核结构。因此,提出了一种可能的聚合机理。P(LA-IDA)在4周内的降解率可达70%。IDA释放速率的变化与降解率趋势一致,证实了其良好的铅螯合性能。P(LA-IDA)有望开发成为一种长效的铅中毒治疗药物或环境中的铅吸附剂,该研究为开发此类药物提供了一种新策略。
