Synthesis and characterization of polysaccharide carbamates and mixed carbamates with tunable water solubility
CARBOHYDRATE POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS(2024)
摘要
Polysaccharide derivatives with two types of functionalities were synthesized; reactive groups for click -chemistry approaches and groups that can tune the water solubility of the products. Xylan phenylcarbonates (XPCs) and cellulose phenylcarbonates (CPCs) with degrees of substitution (DS) ranging from 0.6 to 3.0 were prepared as starting materials. In a modular synthesis approach, these carbonate derivatives were converted with different amines to obtain functional xylan carbamates (XCs) and cellulose carbamates (CCs) with (i) reactive alkynyl- or furfuryl groups and / or (ii) hydrophilic hydroxyalkyl or tertiary amino groups. Both types of functionalities were introduced separately or simultaneously in a convenient one -pot -approach. Mixed polysaccharide carbamates with low, intermediate, and high DS values (0.6 to 2.5) were successfully prepared and characterized. The water solubility of the carbamates and mixed carbamates was tuned by variation of the type and DS of the two hydrophilic substituents. Surprisingly, some of the products showed lower or upper critical solution temperatures (LCSTs, UCSTs). Thus, the thermoreversible phase transition in aqueous solutions was studied. The products obtained in this work are very promising for the preparation of hydrogels through selective covalent crosslinking as well as for the fabrication of thermoresponsive biomaterials.
