■ C-O-C Chemistry: Functional Epoxide Library for Next Generation PEG
1. Development of Biomimetic Polymers
- Developing a library of a new class of well-defined, functional epoxide monomers
- High aqueous solubility and specificity of molecular interactions
2. Synthesis of Polyethers
- Highly biocompatible polyglycerol based polymers
- A large number of hydroxyl groups have a potential to endow useful functionalities
3. Development of Functional Polymers by Post-Polymerization Modification
- Well-defined, water-soluble poly(ethylene oxide)-based polymers can be synthesized by anionic ring opening polymerization(AROP)
- Thiol-ene click chemistry that is highly selective, simple orthogonal reaction can be applied to post-modification of polymers
