2-(Pyridin-2-yl)ethanol as a protecting group for carboxylic acids: Chemical and thermal cleavage, and conversion of poly[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl methacrylate] to poly(methacrylic acid)
(2012)In this communication, we show that 2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanol is a good protecting group for methacrylic acid (MAA), which can be selectively removed, after polymerization, either chemically under alkaline conditions or ...

End-linked poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate]-poly(methacrylic acid) polyampholyte conetworks: Synthesis by sequential RAFT polymerization and swelling and SANS characterization
(2011)Four well-defined end-linked triblock polyampholyte conetworks composed of positively ionizable 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) repeating units and negatively ionizable methacrylic acid (MAA) repeating units ...

"Inverse polyampholyte" hydrogels from double-cationic hydrogels: Synthesis by RAFT polymerization and characterization
(2014)We present two novel, homologous, pyridine-based monomers, 2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl methacrylate (PyEMA) and (pyridin-2-yl)methyl methacrylate (PyMMA), which, despite their structural similarity, the former can be readily ...

Multi-functional conetworks based on cross-linked star polymers
(2010)Three series of conetworks based on cross-linked star polymers of different architectures were prepared using group transfer polymerization. The first series of conetworks were amphiphilic, based on the hydrophobic monomer ...

Structural characterization of glassy and rubbery model anionic amphiphilic polymer conetworks
(2008)The structure of two series of model amphiphilic polymer conetworks based on the hydrophilic anionic methacrylic acid was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). In the ...
