Synthesis of Aliphatic Hyperbranched Polycarbonates via Organo-Catalyzed “A1+B2”-Ring-Opening Polymerization

Abstract: Hyperbranched aliphatic polycarbonates (HBPCs) have attracted significant attention in the field of biomedical application owing to their abundant end groups, biocompatibility, and nontoxic degradation products. However, their practical application is hampered by tedious synthesis procedures. The present work described a novel organo-catalyzed “A1+B2”-ring-opening polymerization (ROP) using a monofunctional primary alcohol (A1) as an initiator and a bicyclic carbonate monomer (B2) for the straightforward synth… Show more

“…The successful synthesis of hyperbranched structures requires the use of an equimolar quantity of primary alcohol as an initiator. [ 26 ] In the realm of polymer electrolytes, polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (mPEG) undeniably emerges as the most suitable choice, widely acknowledged as the optimal material for polymer electrolytes. The influence of mPEG chain length on the ionic conductivity of polymer electrolytes was investigated.…”

“…[3] Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs), a classic representative of topological polymer with a history dating back to the late 19th century, are characterized by highly branched 3D structures encompassing both side chains and terminal functional groups. [25][26][27] The unique 3D architecture of these polymers contributes to their low crystallinity. [27][28][29] Furthermore, the molecules of HBP exhibit significantly distinct properties from their corresponding linear counterparts, such as low viscosity, excellent solubility, and a plethora of modifiable functional groups.…”

“…1 Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) have attracted much attention during the past decades due to their three-dimensional globular architectures, unique properties, and wide applications in optoelectronic and biomedical materials, supramolecular chemistry, and so on. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Thanks to the unremitting efforts of polymer chemists, numerous synthetic strategies, such as polycondensation, [9][10][11][12] self-condensation vinyl polymerization, [13][14][15] ring-opening polymerization, [16][17][18][19] polycycloaddition, 20,21 controlled/living polymerization, 22,23 and click polymerization, [24][25][26][27] have been developed for the synthesis of HBPs with diverse structures and functional properties.…”

“…[5][6][7] For the synthesis of aliphatic polycarbonates, a range of difunctional and ROP monomers containing functional groups have been reported in the literature. [8][9][10] The pendant clickable functional groups which have been incorporated in to aliphatic polycarbonates include: allyl, [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] alkyne, [9,[18][19][20][21] norbornenyl, [22,23] furyl, [24,25] anthryl, [26] active ester, [27,28] aldehyde, [29] azido, [8,30,31] and maleimido. [32][33][34] These functional groups have been further modified by appropriate click reactions to obtain aliphatic polycarbonates with a desirable set of properties.…”
