Synthesis and aqueous solution properties of novel zwitterionic block copolymers

Abstract

A series of near-monodisperse poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate-block-2-tetrahydropyranyl methacrylate] precursors is synthesised using group-transfer polymerisation chemistry; the 2-tetrahydropyranyl methacrylate protecting group is quantitatively removed under mild conditions and the resulting zwitterionic block copolymers undergo reversible temperature-induced micellisation in aqueous media.
