Abstract

AbstractA synthetic method with broad spectrum of application in the preparation of self‐organizing amphiphilic copolymers having poly(glycerol monomethacrylate) (PG2MA) as a hydrophilic part is herein reported. The approach relies on the facile preparation of silylated glycerol monomethacrylate (G2MA‐TMS) monomer, and its controlled atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) in organic media, which produced well‐defined (co)polymers with predictable molar mass and low dispersity, followed by desilylation. The wide scope of such a strategy was demonstrated by the successful synthesis of original polycaprolactone‐b‐poly(glycerol monomethacrylate) (PCL‐b‐PG2MA) diblock copolymers with the ability to self‐assemble into ordered structures (micelles and vesicles) in an aqueous medium.magnified image
