摘要
A study was conducted to demonstrate well-defined uncharged polymers with a sharp upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in water and in physiological milieu. The study also described the reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) homopolymerization of N-acryloylasparaginamide (NAAAM). NAAAM was synthesized in a single step by reacting acryloyl chloride with L-asparaginamide hydrochloride. A series of NAAAM homopolymers of variable chain length were synthesized by RAFT polymerization and the properties of the formed homopolymers in dilute aqueous solutions were studied by turbidimetry. The formed polymers exhibited a well-definedmolecular structure and unprecedented UCST properties in water and in physiological milieu.
