One‐Pot Synthesis of Molecular Bottle‐Brush Functionalized Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Superior Dispersibility in Water

Abstract

Molecular bottle-brush functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with superior dispersibility in water are prepared by a one-pot synthetic methodology. Elongating the main-chain and side-chain length of molecular bottle-brushes can further increase SWCNT dispersibility. They show significant enhancement of SWCNT dispersibility up to four times higher than those of linear molecular functionalized SWCNTs.

Thermoresponsive poly(γ‐propyl‐l‐glutamate)‐graft‐(oligo ethylene glycol)s: Synthesis, characterization, and properties

“…Poly(γ‐propyl‐ l ‐glutamate)‐graft‐(oligo‐ethylene‐glycol)s (PPLG‐g‐OEGs) were synthesized via copper‐mediated 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition between poly(γ‐3‐azidopropyl‐ l ‐glutamate)s (PAPLGs) and propargyl functionalized oligo ethylene glycols (Pr‐OEGs) (Scheme ). Pr‐OEG side chains [Figure (a,b)] were prepared form propargyl bromide and oligo ethylene glycols via etherification reactions . PAPLGs [Figure (c)] were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerizations of γ‐chloropropyl‐ l ‐glutamate based N‐carboxyanhydride (CP‐NCA) and postmodification of poly(γ‐chloropropyl‐ l ‐glutamate)s (PCPLGs) with NaN 3 .…”

“…Poly(γ‐3‐azidopropyl‐ l ‐glutamate) (PAPLG) and propargyl functionalized oligo ethylene glycols (Pr‐OEGs) were synthesized according to a reported procedure. CuBr (99%) and pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA, 99%) were purchased from Energy Chemical.…”
