摘要
2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶- n -氧(TEMPO)结构具有有效的抗氧化活性,在生物医学上具有应用。在亲水性聚合物上固定TEMPO是改善其性能的有效策略;然而,它主要局限于可逆失活自由基聚合或聚合后方法。在这里,我们通过阳离子开环聚合(CROP)将TEMPO单元固定在亲水聚(2-乙基-2-恶唑啉)(PEtOx)骨架上,这种新型2-恶唑啉单体具有甲氧基保护的TEMPO -2取代基(2-乙基-2-恶唑啉)(EtOx)。调整EtOx/TempOx的比例以优化氮氧化物含量,同时在脱保护时保持所得到的P(EtOx -stat-TempOx- oy•)共聚物的合适水溶性。P(EtOx40-stat-TempOx-O10•)和P(EtOx33-stat-TempOx-O17•)表现出双重刺激响应行为,并在水介质中表现出显著的自由基捕获活性。特别是,当TempOx-O•固定为P(EtOxx-stat-TempOx-Oy•)时,其活性显著增强。P(EtOx40-stat-TempOx-O10•)体系在水中表现出更持久的活性,统计上与抗氧化剂铁他汀-1 (fer1)相当。总的来说,本研究介绍了一种生物相容性聚合物平台用于TEMPO固定,增强了其自由基捕获活性,并提供了可控的刺激响应特性。
Nitroxide-Containing Poly(2-oxazoline)s Show Dual-Stimuli-Responsive Behavior and Radical-Trapping Activity
2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO) structures possess potent antioxidant activities for biomedical applications. TEMPO immobilization on hydrophilic polymers is a powerful strategy to improve its properties; however, it is mostly limited to reversible-deactivation radical polymerizations or postpolymerization approaches. Here, we immobilized TEMPO units on a hydrophilic poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOx) backbone through cationic ring-opening polymerization (CROP) of a new 2-oxazoline monomer bearing a methoxy-protected TEMPO 2-substituent with 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline (EtOx). The ratios of EtOx/TempOx were adjusted to optimize the nitroxide content while maintaining suitable water solubility of the resulting P(EtOxx-stat-TempOx-Oy•) copolymers upon deprotection. P(EtOx40-stat-TempOx-O10•) and P(EtOx33-stat-TempOx-O17•) showed a dual stimuli-responsive behavior and demonstrated significant radical-trapping activities in aqueous media. Particularly, a meaningful augmentation in the activity of TempOx-O• was observed when it was immobilized as P(EtOxx-stat-TempOx-Oy•). The P(EtOx40-stat-TempOx-O10•) system exhibited a longer-lasting activity in water, statistically comparable to that of the antioxidant ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1). Overall, this study introduces a biocompatible polymeric platform for TEMPO immobilization that augments its radical-trapping activity and offers controllable stimuli-responsive properties.
