A styrene based water soluble polymer containing pendant sulfonated calix[4]arene groups has been synthesized by using free radical polymerization combined with post-polymerization sulfonation chemistry. The monomer 25-(4-vinylbenzyl)-26, 27, 28-hydroxy-calix[4]arene (VBC4A) was prepared in 3 steps: (1) reduction of 4-vinyl benzoic acid to the respective alcohol (2) formation of the bromide by the Appel reaction and (3) synthesis of the respective ether by Williamson O-alkylation reaction with calix[4]arene. Polymerization was accomplished by azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) initiated free radical polymerization technique to afford P(VBC4A) with Mn value of 7090 g/mol and moderate polydispersity. The resulting P(VBC4A) was subsequently reacted with acetyl sulfate to afforded the sulfonated polymer. The reaction was followed by nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy, and the results suggest that the sulfonation reaction lead to nearly quantitative functionalization of the calixarene functional polymer. Elemental analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed these findings on the degree of sulfonated functionalization. Electro-responsive properties of the sulfonated polymer were studied by cyclic voltammetry and isothermal titration calorimetry in phosphate buffer saline solution. A response to electrochemical stimulus is observed where guest molecules of methyl viologen incorporate and dissociate with P(VBSC4A).
