Notes:
Poly[styrene (ST)-tetrahydrofuran (THF)-2-methyl-2-oxazoline(MeOz)] triblock and graft copolymers were prepared by ionic polymerizations. Poly(ST-THF) graft copolymers were synthesized by coupling of ST-4-vinylpyridine (4VP) copolymer with a large excess of PTHF dication. The ion coupling of PST dianion with PTHF dication was accompanied by the side reaction (abstraction of α proton of oxonium ion). After tosylation of terminal hydroxyl groups of PTHF blocks, cationic copolymerizations of MeOz with poly(ST-THF) block and graft copolymers were carried out, and characteristics of produced copolymers were investigated in some detail.
