We report the facile synthesis of well defined, disulfide containing polymers via SET-LRP. A one-pot reduction/conjugation reaction enables post polymerisation modification with functional (meth)acrylates and acrylamides.

The current challenge for polymeric nanoreactors is to precisely control the membrane permeability between permeable, impermeable, and semipermeable at defined pH. Additionally, the synthetic methods are obstructed by tedious purification processes, especially when polymer multiblocks are required in the membrane of capsules to achieve different responsiveness and functions. Here, we report a rapid one-pot synthesis of ABA-type triblock copolymer brushes on silica template via surface-initiated single electron transfer living radical polymerization (SI-SET-LRP).

A chemically unprotected mannose-containing acrylate (ManA) monomer was synthesized and polymerized by Cu(0)-mediated radical polymerization in water (SET-LRP). One-pot block copolymerization was achieved upon addition of a solution of -isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) or diethylene glycol ethyl ether acrylate (DEGEEA) forming thermoresponsive double hydrophilic diblock glycopolymers which revealed self-assembly properties in aqueous solution forming well-defined, sugar-decorated nanoparticles.
