Poly(lactic acid)-block-poly(oxirane)s (PLA-b-POE) of various compositions were prepared using a one-pot approach and then extended in a reaction with l-lysine diethyl ester diisocyanate, thereby forming polyester-ether-urethanes (PEU) with prolonged chains and units with increased degradability. The PEUs are processed by electrospinning to prepare degradable nanofibrous sheet materials with and without encapsulating the antibiotic Vancomycin (VAC). PLA block isomerism and POE blocks oligomeric content (1000 g/mol) affect the thermal properties, processability, nanofibrous sheet morphology, abiotic degradation, cytocompatibility, and encapsulated antibiotic release rate of prepared PEUs. Therefore, our findings provide an effective approach to tuning the functional properties of these advanced biocompatible materials. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study reports the first Co2 (CO)8 -catalyzed [2+2+2] polycyclotrimerization by the transformation of internal ethynyl groups of aromatic diyne monomers. The reaction yields polycyclotrimers of polyphenylene-type with either hyperbranched or partly crosslinked architecture. The homopolycyclotrimerization of the monomers with two ethynyl groups per one molecule, namely 1,4-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, 4,4'-bis(phenylethynyl)biphenyl, and 4-(phenylethynyl)phenylacetylene, gives partly crosslinked, insoluble polyphenylenes. The soluble, hyperbranched polyphenylenes are generated via copolycyclotrimerization of 1,4-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene with 1,2-diphenylacetylene (average number of ethynyl groups per monomer molecule < 2). This one-step polycyclotrimerization path to hyperbranched or partly crosslinked polyphenylenes is an alternative to the synthesis of these polymers by Diels-Alder transformation of substituted cyclopentadienones. All polyphenylenes prepared exhibit photoluminescence with emission maxima ranging from 381 to 495 nm. Polyphenylenes with a less compact packing of segments are microporous (specific surface area up to 159 m2 g-1 ), which is particularly important in the case of soluble polyphenylenes because they can be potentially used to prepare microporous layers.
The chain coordination polymerization of (ethynylarene)carbaldehydes with unprotected carbaldehyde groups, namely ethynylbenzaldehydes, 1-ethynylbenzene-3,5-dicarboxaldehyde, and 3-[(4-ethynylphenyl)ethynyl]benzaldehyde, is reported for the first time. Polymerization is catalyzed with various Rh(I) catalysts and yields poly(arylacetylene)s with one or two pendant carbaldehyde groups per monomeric unit. Surprisingly, the carbaldehyde groups of the monomers do not inhibit the polymerization unlike the carbaldehyde group of unsubstituted benzaldehyde that acts as a strong inhibitor of Rh(I) catalyzed polymerization of arylacetylenes. The inhibition ability of carbaldehyde groups in (ethynylarene)carbaldehydes seems to be eliminated owing to a simultaneous presence of unsaturated ethynyl groups in (ethynylarene)carbaldehydes. The reactive carbaldehyde groups make poly[(ethynylarene)carbaldehyde]s promising for functional appreciation via various postpolymerization modifications. The introduction of photoluminescence or chirality to poly(ethynylbenzaldehyde)s via quantitative modification of their carbaldehyde groups in reaction with either photoluminescent or chiral primary amines under formation of the polymers with Schiff-base-type pendant groups is given as an example.

Chitosan and chitosan-grafted polylactic acid as a matrix for BSA encapsulation in a nanoparticle structure were prepared through a polyelectrolyte complexation method with dextran sulfate. Polylactic acid was synthetized via a polycondensation reaction using the non-metal-based initiator methanesulfonic acid and grafted to the chitosan backbone by a coupling reaction, with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide as the condensing agent. The effect of concentration of the polymer matrix utilized herein on particle diameter, ζ-potential, encapsulation efficiency, and the release kinetic of the model protein bovine serum albumin at differing pH levels was investigated. The influence of pH and ionic strength on the behavior of the nanoparticles prepared was also researched. Results showed that grafting polylactic acid to chitosan chains reduced the initial burst effect in the kinetics of BSA release from the structure of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, a rise in encapsulation efficiency of the bovine serum albumin and diminishment in nanoparticle diameter were observed due to chitosan modification. The results suggest that both polymers actually show appreciable encapsulation efficiency; and release rate of BSA. CS-g-PLA is more suitable than unmodified CS as a carrier for controlled protein delivery.

Microporous organic polymers (MOP) of a new type have been synthesised in high yields by a simple coordination polymerization of 1,3-diethynylbenzene, 1,4-diethynylbenzene and 4,4'-diethynylbiphenyl catalysed by [Rh(cod)acac] and [Rh(nbd)acac] complexes. The new MOPs are non-swellable polyacetylene-type conjugated networks consisting of ethynylaryl-substituted polyene main chains that are crosslinked by arylene linkers. Prepared MOP samples have a mole fraction of branching units (by (13)C CP/MAS NMR) from 0.30 to 0.47 and exhibit the BET (Brunaer-Emmett-Teller) surface up to 809 m(2) g(-1) and hydrogen uptake up to 0.69 wt% (77 K, H2 pressure 750 torr).
