Synthesis and Self-Assembly of UV-Cross-Linkable Amphiphilic Polyoxazoline Block Copolymers : Importance of Multitechnique Characterization

In the nanomedicine field, there is a need to widen the availability of nanovectors to compensate for the increasingly reported side effects of poly(ethene glycol). Nanovectors enabling cross-linking can further optimize drug delivery. Cross-linkable polyoxazolines are therefore relevant candidates...

Zusammenfassung:In the nanomedicine field, there is a need to widen the availability of nanovectors to compensate for the increasingly reported side effects of poly(ethene glycol). Nanovectors enabling cross-linking can further optimize drug delivery. Cross-linkable polyoxazolines are therefore relevant candidates to address these two points. Here we present the synthesis of coumarin-functionalized poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) block copolymers, namely, poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly(2-phenyl-2-oxazoline) and poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly(2-butyl-2-oxazoline). The hydrophilic ratio and molecular weights were varied in order to obtain a range of possible behaviors. Their self-assembly after nanoprecipitation or film rehydration was examined. The resulting nano-objects were fully characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cryo-TEM, multiple-angle dynamic and static light scattering. In most cases, the formation of polymer micelles was observed, as well as, in some cases, aggregates, which made characterization more difficult. Cross-linking was performed under UV illumination in the presence of a coumarin-bearing cross-linker based on polymethacrylate derivatives. Addition of the photo-cross-linker and cross-linking resulted in better-defined objects with improved stability in most cases
