AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers developed a new type of large molecules called Giant Amphiphiles using efficient methods.
- These molecules were created through a combination of living radical polymerization and a specific chemical reaction known as click chemistry (CuAAC).
- This innovative technique enables customization of the biomacromolecules and the creation of nanocontainers directly during the synthesis process.
Article Abstract
A novel class of chemically addressable, multifunctional Giant Amphiphiles was synthesized in excellent yields and polydispersity following simultaneous or sequential living radical polymerization and the click, copper(I)-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). This new approach allows chemical tailoring of the biomacromolecules and in situ formation of nanocontainers.
