- Selective monobenzylation of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid (bis-MPA) to yield an AB linear monomer and analogous linear oligomers
-
The synthesis of a mono-benzylated AB monomer based on bis-MPA is explored and accomplished via a three-step synthesis without column chromatography. This optimized synthesis utilizes a generic acid-catalyzed esterification of bis-MPA to the ethyl ester.

- Low molecular weight branched polyamines for delivery of biologically active materials
-
A branched polyamine comprises about 8 to about 12 backbone tertiary amine groups, about 18 to about 24 backbone secondary amine groups, a positive number n′ greater than 0 of backbone terminating primary amine groups, and a positive number q greater than 0 of backbone terminating carbamate groups of formula (2): wherein (n′+q) is a number equal to about 8 to about 12, the starred bond of formula (2) is linked to a backbone nitrogen of the branched polyamine, L′ is a divalent linking group comprising 3 to 30 carbons, and q/(n′+q)×100% equals about 9% to about 40%.

- POLYCARBONATES BEARING AROMATIC N-HETEROCYCLES FOR DRUG DELIVERY
-
Nanoparticles comprise a drug, a first block polymer and a second block polymer. The first block polymer has a poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) block and a polycarbonate block bearing a side chain aromatic nitrogen-containing heterocycle (N-heterocycle). The N-heterocycle can be in the form of a base, a hydrosalt of the base, a sulfobetaine adduct of the base, or a combination thereof. The second block polymer has a PEO block and a polycarbonate block bearing a side chain catechol group, which can be present as a catechol, oxidized form of a catechol, and/or a polymerized form of a catechol. The nanoparticles can be dispersed in water and are capable of controlled release of the drug.

- Selective pyrolysis of bifunctional compounds: gas-phase elimination of carbonate-ester functionalities
-
Compounds containing both carbonate and ester functionalities were synthesized and then subjected to online-GC gas-phase pyrolysis. The carbonate groups were cleaved selectively in all elimination reactions. The end products of the reaction were found to be affected by the nature of the substrate. The presence of hydrogen and carbonyl substituents on the carbon β to the carbonate group resulted in further product decomposition through a concerted six-membered transition state. Results from flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) and analysis of the GC data indicate that the cleavage of the carbonate group is fast, and that the slower secondary decomposition reactions are independent of the presence of the carbonate group. Spectroscopic analyses of the products are reported.
